New Testament

Romans 13:7-14 The Scriptures 1998 (ISR98)

7. Render therefore to all what is due to them: tax to whom tax is due, toll to whom toll, fear to whom fear, respect to whom respect.

8. Owe no one any matter except to love one another, for he who loves another has filled the Torah.

9. For this, “You shall not commit adultery,” “You shall not murder,” “You shall not steal,” “You shall not bear false witness,” “You shall not covet,” and if there is any other command, is summed up in this word, “You shall love your neighbour as yourself.”

10. Love does no evil to a neighbour. Therefore, love is completion of the Torah.

11. And do this, knowing the time, that it is already the hour for us to wake up from sleep, for now our deliverance is nearer than when we did believe.

12. The night is far advanced, the day has come near. So let us put off the works of darkness, and let us put on the armour of light.

13. Let us walk becomingly, as in the day, not in wild parties and drunkenness, not in living together and indecencies, not in fighting and envy,

14. but put on the Master יהושע Messiah, and make no provision for the lusts of the flesh.
