Romans 13:10-14

10LoveG26 1doesG2038 noG3756 wrongG2556 to a neighborG4139; thereforeG3767 2loveG26 is the fulfillmentG4138 of the lawG3551.

11Do thisG3778, knowingG3609 the timeG2540, that it is 3alreadyG2235 the hourG5610 for you to 4awakenG1453 from sleepG5258; for nowG3568 5salvationG4991 is nearerG1451 to us thanG2228 whenG3753 we believedG4100. 126The nightG3571 is almostG4298 goneG4298, and 7the dayG2250 is nearG1448. ThereforeG3767 let us layG659 asideG659 8the deedsG2041 of darknessG4655 and putG1746 on 9the armorG3696 of lightG5457. 13Let us 1011behaveG4043 properlyG2156 as in the dayG2250, 12not in carousingG2970 and drunkennessG3178, not in sexualG2845 promiscuityG2845 and sensualityG766, not in strifeG2054 and jealousyG2205. 14But 13putG1746 on the LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, and makeG4160 noG3361 provisionG4307 for the fleshG4561 14in regardG1519 to its lustsG1939.
