Romans 13:7-9

Contemporary English Version

⁷ Pay all that you owe, whether it is taxes and fees or respect and honor.

Love

⁸ Let love be your only debt! If you love others, you have done all that the Law demands. ^9 (A) In the Law there are many commands, such as, “Be faithful in marriage. Do not murder. Do not steal. Do not want what belongs to others.” But all of these are summed up in the command that says, “Love others as much as you love yourself.”
