Romans 13:1-3

Context
Submission to Civil Government

13:1 Let every person be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except by God’s appointment, 1  and the authorities that exist have been instituted by God. 13:2 So the person who resists such authority 2  resists the ordinance of God, and those who resist will incur judgment 13:3 (for rulers cause no fear for good conduct but for bad). Do you desire not to fear authority? Do good and you will receive its commendation,

1 tn Grk “by God.”

2 tn Grk “the authority,” referring to the authority just described.
