οἱ γὰρ ἄρχοντες οὐκ εἰσὶν φόβος ⸂τῷ ἀγαθῷ ἔργῳ⸃ ἀλλὰ ⸂τῷ κακῷ⸃. θέλεις δὲ μὴ φοβεῖσθαι τὴν ἐξουσίαν; τὸ ἀγαθὸν ποίει, καὶ ἕξεις ἔπαινον ἐξ αὐτῆς·
English Translation
For the rulers are not a terror to the good work, but to the evil. Do you want to not be afraid of the authority? Do good, and you will have praise from it.
