Job 34:18

Thou shalt not revile the gods, nor curse the ruler of thy people.

Also to punish the just is not good, nor to strike princes for equity.

Render therefore to all their dues: tribute to whom tribute is due; custom to whom custom; fear to whom fear; honour to whom honour.

Then said Paul unto him, God shall smite thee, thou whited wall: for sittest thou to judge me after the law, and commandest me to be smitten contrary to the law?

Then said Paul, I wist not, brethren, that he was the high priest: for it is written, Thou shalt not speak evil of the ruler of thy people.

Likewise also these filthy dreamers defile the flesh, despise dominion, and speak evil of dignities.

But chiefly them that walk after the flesh in the lust of uncleanness, and despise government. Presumptuous are they, selfwilled, they are not afraid to speak evil of dignities.

Honour all men. Love the brotherhood. Fear God. Honour the king.
