| 11 | And that, knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake out of sleep: for now is our salvation nearer than when we believed. | 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. | And this, knowing the season, that already it is time for you to awake out of sleep: for now is salvation nearer to us than when we first believed. |

About Romans 13"Let every soul be subject unto the higher powers," for "the powers that be are ordained of God," and the ruler "is the minister of God to thee for good," so "pay ye tribute also" and "Render therefore to all their dues." "Owe no man any thing, but to love one another," for the commandments are summed up in "Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself," and "love is the fulfilling of the law." "Now it is high time to awake out of sleep," Paul writes, so "let us put on the armour of light," and "put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make not provision for the flesh."
