2 Chronicles 19:8
Moreover H1571 in Jerusalem H3389 did Jehoshaphat H3092 set H5975 of the Levites, H3881 and of the priests, H3548 and of the chief H7218 of the fathers H1 of Israel, H3478 for the judgment H4941 of the LORD, H3068 and for controversies, H7379 when they returned H7725 to Jerusalem. H3389
Deuteronomy 16:18-20
18
Judges H8199 and officers H7860 shall you make H5414 you in all H3605 your gates, H8179 which H834 the LORD H3068 your God H430 gives H5414 you, throughout your tribes: H7626 and they shall judge H8199 the people H5971 with just H6664 judgment. H4941
19
You shall not wrest H5186 judgment; H4941 you shall not respect H5234 persons, H6440 neither H3808 take H3947 a gift: H7810 for a gift H7810 does blind H5786 the eyes H5869 of the wise, H2450 and pervert H5557 the words H1697 of the righteous. H6662
20
That which is altogether just H6664 shall you follow, H7291 that you may live, H2421 and inherit H3423 the land H776 which H834 the LORD H3068 your God H430 gives H5414 you.
Romans 13:1-5
1
Let every G3956 soul G5590 be subject G5293 to the higher G5242 powers. G1849 For there is no G3756 power G1849 but of God: G2316 the powers G1849 that be are ordained G5021 of God. G2316
2
Whoever G3588 therefore G5620 resists G498 the power, G1849 resists G436 the ordinance G1296 of God: G2316 and they that resist G436 shall receive G2983 to themselves G1438 damnation. G2917
3
For rulers G758 are not a terror G5401 to good G18 works, G2041 but to the evil. G2556 Will G2309 you then G1161 not be afraid G5399 of the power? G1849 do G4160 that which is good, G18 and you shall have G2192 praise G1868 of the same: G846
4
For he is the minister G1249 of God G2316 to you for good. G18 But if G1437 you do G4160 that which is evil, G2556 be afraid; G5399 for he bears G5409 not the sword G3162 in vain: G1500 for he is the minister G1249 of God, G2316 a revenger G1558 to execute wrath G3709 on him that does G4238 evil. G2556
5
Why G1352 you must needs G318 be subject, G5293 not only G3440 for wrath, G3709 but also G2532 for conscience G4893 sake.
1 Peter 2:13
Submit G5293 yourselves to every G3956 ordinance G2937 of man G442 for the Lord's G2962 sake: whether G1535 it be to the king, G935 as supreme; G5242
1 Peter 2:14
Or G1535 to governors, G2232 as to them that are sent G3992 by him for the punishment G1557 of evildoers, G2555 and for the praise G1868 of them that do G17 well. G17
