Romans 13:9-14 ▼

9 The commandments “Do not commit adultery, “Do not murder, “Do not steal, “Do not covet,” and any other commandments, are summed up in this one decree: “Love your neighbor as yourself.”

10 Love does no wrong to its neighbor. Therefore love is the fulfillment of the law.

11 And do this, understanding the occasion. The hour has come for you to wake up from your slumber, for our salvation is nearer now than when we first believed.

12 The night is nearly over; the day has drawn near. So let us lay aside the deeds of darkness and put on the armor of light.

13 Let us behave decently, as in the daytime, not in carousing and drunkenness, not in sexual immorality and debauchery, not in dissension and jealousy.

14 Instead, clothe yourselves with the Lord Jesus Christ, and make no provision for the desires of the flesh.
