(Textus Receptus, Theodore Beza, 1598)

(King James Version, Pure Cambridge Edition 1900)

  • Romans 13:4 Because he is God’s minister to you for good. But if you do evil, be afraid; because he does not bear the sword in vain; because he is God’s minister, an avenger to execute wrath on him who practices evil.
