Romans 13:6⥂
KJV:
For for this cause pay ye tribute also: for they are God’s ministers, attending continually upon this very thing.
BSB:
This is also why you pay taxes. For the authorities are God’s servants, who devote themselves to their work.
Greek:
διὰ τοῦτο γὰρ καὶ φόρους τελεῖτε· λειτουργοὶ γὰρ θεοῦ εἰσιν εἰς αὐτὸ τοῦτο προσκαρτεροῦντες.¶
