ἑαυτοῖς κρίμα λήμψονται
˱on˲_themselves judgment /will_be/_receiving

13:1-2 The basic command of 13:1-7 is to submit to governing authorities. In God’s ordering of the world, we answer to those in positions of authority. Our submission to them will usually take the form of obedience. However, because God stands over all governments, our submission to governing authorities must always be in terms of our ultimate submission to God (see Acts 4:19-20). The Roman Christians might have been resisting government (see study note on Rom 13:6) based on a false understanding of the Good News, as if no longer copying “the behavior and customs of this world” (12:2) meant that they could ignore earthly institutions.
• placed there by God: Scripture consistently teaches that God is actively involved in raising up and casting down human governments and leaders (1 Sam 2:6-10; 12:8; Prov 8:15-16; Isa 41:2-4; 45:1-7; Jer 21:7, 10; 27:5-6; Dan 2:21, 37-38; 4:17). God instituted governing authorities, so rebelling against them is rebelling against God, who will respond with judgment (Rom 13:2).
OET (OET-LV) So_then the one opposing against_the authority, against_the of_ the _god ordinance has_resisted, and the ones having_resisted, on_themselves judgment will_be_receiving.
OET (OET-RV) So anyone opposing authority has rebelled against what God has instituted, and everyone who rebels is bringing judgement on themselves
