讀經Scriptures: [expand 羅Romans 13:1-2, 5-7, 8, 10, 11-14]

羅Romans 13:1-2, 5-7, 8, 10, 11-14
.. 13:1 [hgb] 在 上 有 权 柄 的 ， 人 人 当 顺 服 他 。 因 为 没 有 权 柄 不 是 出 于 神 的 。 凡 掌 权 的 都 是 神 所 命 的 。
[kjv] Let every soul be subject unto the higher powers. For there is no power but of God: the powers that be are ordained of God.
[bbe] Let everyone put himself under the authority of the higher powers, because there is no power which is not of God, and all powers are ordered by God.
13:2 [hgb] 所 以 抗 拒 掌 权 的 ， 就 是 抗 拒 神 的 命 。 抗 拒 的 必 自 取 刑 罚
[kjv] Whosoever therefore resisteth the power, resisteth the ordinance of God: and they that resist shall receive to themselves damnation.
[bbe] For which reason everyone who puts himself against the authority puts himself against the order of God: and those who are against it will get punishment for themselves.

13:5 [hgb] 所 以 你 们 必 须 顺 服 ， 不 但 是 因 为 刑 罚 ， 也 是 因 为 良 心 。
[kjv] Wherefore ye must needs be subject, not only for wrath, but also for conscience sake.
[bbe] So put yourselves under the authority, not for fear of wrath, but because you have the knowledge of what is right.
13:6 [hgb] 你 们 纳 粮 ， 也 为 这 个 缘 故 。 因 他 们 是 神 的 差 役 ， 常 常 特 管 这 事 。
[kjv] For for this cause pay ye tribute also: for they are God’s ministers, attending continually upon this very thing.
[bbe] For the same reason, make payment of taxes; because the authority is God’s servant, to take care of such things at all times.
13:7 [hgb] 凡 人 所 当 得 的 ， 就 给 他 。 当 得 粮 的 ， 给 他 纳 粮 。 当 得 税 的 ， 给 他 上 税 。 当 惧 怕 的 ， 惧 怕 他 。 当 恭 敬 的 ， 恭 敬 他 。
[kjv] Render therefore to all their dues: tribute to whom tribute is due; custom to whom custom; fear to whom fear; honour to whom honour.
[bbe] Give to all what is their right: taxes to him whose they are, payment to him whose right it is, fear to whom fear, honour to whom honour is to be given.
13:8 [hgb] 凡 事 都 不 可 亏 欠 人 ， 惟 有 彼 此 相 爱 ， 要 常 以 为 亏 欠 。 因 为 爱 人 的 就 完 全 了 律 法 。
[kjv] Owe no man any thing, but to love one another: for he that loveth another hath fulfilled the law.
[bbe] Be in debt for nothing, but to have love for one another: for he who has love for his neighbour has kept all the law.

13:10 [hgb] 爱 是 不 加 害 与 人 的 ， 所 以 爱 就 完 全 了 律 法 。
[kjv] Love worketh no ill to his neighbour: therefore love is the fulfilling of the law.
[bbe] Love does no wrong to his neighbour, so love makes the law complete.
13:11 [hgb] 再 者 ， 你 们 晓 得 现 今 就 是 该 趁 早 睡 醒 的 时 候 ， 因 为 我 们 得 救 ， 现 今 比 初 信 的 时 候 更 近 了 。
[kjv] And that, knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake out of sleep: for now is our salvation nearer than when we believed.
[bbe] See then that the time has come for you to be awake from sleep: for now is your salvation nearer than when you first had faith.
13:12 [hgb] 黑 夜 已 深 ， 白 昼 将 近 。 我 们 就 当 脱 去 暗 昧 的 行 为 ， 带 上 光 明 的 兵 器 。
[kjv] The night is far spent, the day is at hand: let us therefore cast off the works of darkness, and let us put on the armour of light.
[bbe] The night is far gone, and the day is near: so let us put off the works of the dark, arming ourselves with light,
13:13 [hgb] 行 事 为 人 要 端 正 ， 好 像 行 在 白 昼 。 不 可 荒 宴 醉 酒 。 不 可 好 色 邪 荡 。 不 可 争 竞 嫉 妒 。
[kjv] Let us walk honestly, as in the day; not in rioting and drunkenness, not in chambering and wantonness, not in strife and envying.
[bbe] With right behaviour as in the day; not in pleasure-making and drinking, not in bad company and unclean behaviour, not in fighting and envy.
13:14 [hgb] 总 要 披 戴 主 耶 稣 基 督 ， 不 要 为 肉 体 安 排 ， 去 放 纵 私 欲 。
[kjv] But put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make not provision for the flesh, to fulfil the lusts thereof.
[bbe] But put on the Lord Jesus Christ, and do not give thought to the flesh to do its desires.
