{ Give to everyone what you owe them. }

"Pay your taxes, too, for these same reasons.
For government workers need to be paid.
They are serving God in what they do.
Give to everyone what you owe them:
Pay your taxes and government fees to those who collect them,
and give respect and honor to those who are in authority."

- Romans 13:6-7
