12 Be sure to act appropriately when you’re with non-Christians, so even if they accuse you of doing wrong, they will see the good things you do and glorify God when he comes.2:12. Literally, "day of visitation."
13 Obey human authority for the Lord’s sake, whether it is the king as the highest authority, 14 or governors that God appoints to punish those who do evil and to commend those who do good.
