13 Submit yourselves for the Lord’s {Kyrion} sake to every human institution, whether to the king as the supreme authority, 14 or to governors as those sent by him to punish those who do wrong and to praise (approval) those who do right. 15 For it is God’s {Theou} will that by doing good you should silence the ignorance of foolish men. 16 Live in freedom, but do not use your freedom (liberty) as a cover-up for evil; live as servants {douloi} of God {Theou}. 17 Treat everyone with high regard: Love {agapate} the brotherhood of believers \Love the brotherhood/, fear God {Theon}, honor the king. 1 Peter 2:13-17, Berean Annotated Bible.
