Kehillah in Rome 13:4-6

Orthodox Jewish Bible

⁴ For he is the mesharet (minister, servant) of Hashem to you for HaTov. But if you do HaRah, be afraid. For he does not bear the cherev (8:35) to no purpose. For he is the mesharet of Hashem, an avenger for Charon Af (1:18 2:8; 3:5; 4:15; 5:9; 9:22; 12:19; 13:4) against the evildoer.

⁵ Wherefore it is necessary to be subject, not only on account of the Charon Af of Hashem, but also on account of matzpun (conscience).

⁶ For that is why you also pay tribute (taxes). For they are mesharetim of G-d engaged in this very task.
