1 Peter 2:17 Douay-Rheims

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

Arnobius of Sicca

c. A.D. 255–327 Patristic

If you propose to us gods such as they should be if they do exist, and such as we feel that we all mean when we mention that name, how can we but give them even the greatest honour, since we have been taught by the commands which have especial power over us, to pay honour to all men even, of whatever rank, of whatever condition they may be?
