## Romans 13:9-10 in Context (Verses 6–13 KJV)
 
 [6 ](/kjv/romans/13/6) For for this cause pay ye tribute also: for they are God’s ministers, attending continually upon this very thing.
 
 [7 ](/kjv/romans/13/7) Render therefore to all their dues: tribute to whom tribute *is due*; custom to whom custom; fear to whom fear; honour to whom honour.
 
 [8 ](/kjv/romans/13/8) Owe no man any thing, but to love one another: for he that loveth another hath fulfilled the law.
 
 [9 ](/kjv/romans/13/9) For this, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not kill, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness, Thou shalt not covet; and if *there be* any other commandment, it is briefly comprehended in this saying, namely, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.
 
 [10 ](/kjv/romans/13/10) Love worketh no ill to his neighbour: therefore love *is* the fulfilling of the law.
 
 [11 ](/kjv/romans/13/11) 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.
 
 [12 ](/kjv/romans/13/12) 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.
 
 [13 ](/kjv/romans/13/13) Let us walk honestly, as in the day; not in rioting and drunkenness, not in chambering and wantonness, not in strife and envying.
 
[Romans 12](/kjv/romans/12) [Romans 14](/kjv/romans/14)
