For because of this you also pay taxes, for
rulers
are servants of God, devoting themselves to this very thing.
King James Version

Wherefore
ye
must needs be subject, not only for wrath, but also for conscience sake.
6
For for this cause pay ye tribute also: for they are God's ministers, attending continually upon this very thing.

And for this reason you pay taxes, since the authorities are God's servants, continually attending to these tasks.
New Living Translation
Chapter 13
5
So you must submit to them, not only to avoid punishment, but also to keep a clear conscience.
6
Pay your taxes, too, for these same reasons. For government workers need to be paid. They are serving God in what they do.
