Romans 13:9

In context

7Pay everyone what you owe: tax to whom tax is due, duty to whom duty is due, respect to whom respect is due, honor to whom honor is due. 8Owe no one anything, except to love one another. Whoever loves the other has fulfilled the law. 9For the commandments—“You shall not commit adultery, you shall not murder, you shall not steal, you shall not covet”—and any other commandment are gathered up in this one word: “Love your neighbor as yourself.” 10Love does no wrong to a neighbor. So love is the law brought to its fullness. 11And do all this knowing what hour it is: the moment has come for you to wake up out of sleep. Our salvation is nearer now than when we first believed.
