Romans 13:9-14 ▼

9 For the commandments, |Do not commit adultery,| |Do not murder,| |Do not steal,| |Do not give false testimony,| |Do not covet,| and whatever other commandments there are, are all summed up in this saying, namely, |You are to love your neighbor as yourself.|

10 Love does not harm a neighbor. Love therefore is the fulfillment of the law.

11 Do this, knowing the time, that it is already time for you to awaken out of sleep, for salvation is now nearer to us than when we first believed.

12 The night is far gone, and the day is near. Let us therefore throw off the works of darkness, and let us put on the armor of light.

13 Let us walk decently, as in the daytime; not in carousing and drunkenness, not in sexual immorality and lustful acts, and not in dissension and jealousy.

14 But put on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make no provision for the flesh, for its lusts.
