12 ahaving your conduct honorable among the Gentiles, that when they speak against you as evildoers, bthey may, by your good works which they observe, glorify God in the day of visitation.
Submission to Government
13 aTherefore submit yourselves to every1 ordinance of man for the Lord’s sake, whether to the king as supreme,
14 or to governors, as to those who are sent by him for the punishment of evildoers and for the praise of those who do good.
15 For this is the will of God, that by doing good you may put to silence the ignorance of foolish men—
16 aas free, yet not busing liberty as a cloak for vice, but as bondservants of God.
