Now then, brothers, I exhort you, in view of God's compassions, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy, satisfying to God—your intelligent duty.

Yes, stop conforming to the pattern of this world; rather, be transformed by the renewing of your mind so as to be able to experience the good and satisfying and perfect will of God. (aiōn g165)
3 ⲅ̅ ϯϫⲱ ⲅⲁⲣ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲉⲛ ⲡⲓ⳿ϩⲙⲟⲧ ⲉⲧⲧⲟⲓ ⲛⲏⲓ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⲛⲓⲃⲉⲛ ⲉⲧϣⲟⲡ ϧⲉⲛ ⲑⲏⲛⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉ⳿ϣⲧⲉⲙⲉⲣϩⲟⲩ⳿ⲟ ⲙⲉⲩⲓ ⲥⲁⲃⲟⲗ ⳿ⲙⲡⲉⲧ⳿ⲥϣⲉ ⳿ⲉⲙⲉⲩⲓ ⳿ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⳿ⲉⲙⲉⲩⲓ ⳿ⲉϭⲓ⳿ⲥⲃⲱ ⲡⲓⲟⲩⲁⲓ ⲡⲓⲟⲩⲁⲓ ⲕⲁⲧⲁ⳿ⲫⲣⲏϯ ⲉⲧⲁ ⲫϯ ⲫⲱϣ ⲛⲁϥ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩϣⲓ ⳿ⲛⲛⲁϩϯ.
Based on the grace given to me, I say to everyone among you not to set your sights higher than you should, but set them sensibly, as God has apportioned a measure of faith to each.
4 ⲇ̅ ⳿ⲙ⳿ⲫⲣⲏϯ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲉⲧⲉ ⳿ⲛ⳿ϩⲣⲏⲓ ϧⲉⲛ ⲟⲩⲥⲱⲙⲁ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩⲱⲧ ⲟⲩⲟⲛⲧⲁⲛ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩⲙⲏϣ ⳿ⲙⲙⲉⲗⲟⲥ ⳿ⲙⲙⲁⲩ ⲛⲓⲙⲉⲗⲟⲥ ⲇⲉ ⲧⲏⲣⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩϩⲱⲃ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩⲱⲧ ⲁⲛ ⲡⲉⲧⲉⲛⲧⲱⲟⲩ.
Because just as in one body we have many parts, but all the parts do not have the same function,
5 ⲉ̅ ⲡⲁⲓⲣⲏϯ ⳿ⲁⲛⲟⲛ ϩⲱⲛ ϧⲁ ⲛⲓⲙⲏϣ ⳿ⲁⲛⲟⲛ ⲟⲩⲥⲱⲙⲁ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩⲱⲧ ϧⲉⲛ Ⲡⲭ̅ⲥ̅ ⲡⲓⲟⲩⲁⲓ ⲡⲓⲟⲩⲁⲓ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲛ ⳿ⲁⲛⲟⲛ ϩⲁⲛⲙⲉⲗⲟⲥ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲛⲉⲛⲉⲣⲏ ⲟⲩ.
so we, who are many, are one body in Christ and individually members of one another.
6 ⲋ̅ ⳿ⲉⲟⲩⲟⲛⲧⲁⲛ ⲇⲉ ⳿ⲙⲙⲁⲩ ⳿ⲛϩⲁⲛ⳿ϩⲙⲟⲧ ⲉⲩϣⲉⲃⲓⲏⲟⲩⲧ ⲕⲁⲧⲁ ⳿ⲡϣⲓ ⳿ⲙⲡⲓ⳿ϩⲙⲟⲧ ⲉⲧⲧⲟⲓ ⲛⲁⲛ ⳿ⲓⲧⲉ ⲟⲩ⳿ⲡⲣⲟⲫⲏⲧⲓ⳿ⲁ ⲕⲁⲧⲁ ⲡⲓⲑⲟⲛⲧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⳿ⲫⲛⲁϩϯ.
Since we have different spiritual gifts according to the grace that was given us, let us use them: if prophecy, according to the analogy of the Faith;
if serving, in the serving; if teaching, in the teaching;
8 ⲏ̅ ⳿ⲓⲧⲉ ⲡⲉⲧϯⲛⲟⲙϯ ϧⲉⲛ ϯⲙⲉⲧⲑⲁⲧϩⲏⲧ ⲫⲏⲉⲧϯ ϧⲉⲛ ⲟⲩⲙⲉⲧϩⲁⲡⲗⲟⲩⲥ ⲫⲏⲉⲧⲭⲏ ϧⲁϫⲱⲟⲩ ϧⲉⲛ ⲟⲩ⳿ⲥⲡⲟⲩⲇⲏ ⲫⲏⲉⲑⲛⲁ⳿ⲓ ϧⲉⲛ ⲟⲩⲣⲁϣⲓ.
if exhorting, in the exhortation; the sharer, with simplicity; the leader, with diligence; the mercy-shower, with cheerfulness.
Love is to be genuine: abhorring the malignant; clinging to the good;
10 ⲓ̅ ϧⲉⲛ ϯⲙⲉⲧⲙⲁⲓⲥⲟⲛ ⲉⲣⲉⲧⲉⲛⲭⲏ ϧⲉⲛ ⲟⲩⲙⲉⲓ ⳿ⲉϧⲟⲩⲛ ⳿ⲉⲛⲉⲧⲉⲛⲉⲣⲏⲟⲩ ⲉⲣⲉⲧⲉⲛⲉⲣϣⲟⲣⲡ ⳿ⲛⲭⲁ ⲛⲉⲧⲉⲛⲉⲣⲏⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉⲛ ⲑⲏⲛⲟⲩ ϧⲉⲛ ⲟⲩⲧⲁⲓⲟ.
showing family affection to one another in brotherly love; in honor preferring one another;
not lagging in diligence; serving the Lord with an enthusiastic spirit;
rejoicing in the hope; enduring the affliction; continuing steadfastly in prayer;
distributing to the needs of the saints; practicing hospitality.
Bless those who persecute you; bless and do not curse.
Rejoice with those who rejoice and weep with those who weep.
16 ⲓ̅ⲋ̅ ⲟⲩⲙⲉⲩⲓ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩⲱⲧ ⲉⲣⲉⲧⲉⲛⲣⲁ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟϥ ⳿ⲉⲛⲉⲧⲉⲛⲉⲣⲏⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉⲧⲉⲛⲙⲉⲩⲓ ⲁⲛ ⳿ⲉⲛⲓⲙⲉⲧϭⲁⲥⲓϩⲏ ⲧ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲉⲣⲉⲧⲉⲛⲙⲟϣⲓ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲛⲏⲉⲧⲑⲉⲃⲓⲏ ⲟⲩⲧ ⳿ⲙⲡⲉⲣϣⲱⲡⲓ ⲉⲣⲉⲧⲉⲛⲟⲓ ⳿ⲛⲥⲁⲃⲉ ⲛⲱⲧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲙⲙⲁⲩⲁⲧⲉⲛ ⲑⲏⲛⲟⲩ.
Regard each other as being on the same level—do not distinguish the upper classes, but associate with the lower classes; do not exalt yourself.
17 ⲓ̅ⲍ̅ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉⲧⲉⲛϯ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩⲡⲉⲧϩⲱⲟⲩ ⲁⲛ ⳿ⲛ⳿ϩⲗⲓ ⳿ⲛ⳿ⲧϣⲉⲃⲓⲱ ⳿ⲛⲡⲟⲩⲡⲉⲧϩⲱⲟⲩ ⲉⲣⲉⲧⲉⲛϥⲓ ⳿ⲙ⳿ⲫⲣⲱⲟⲩϣ ⳿ⲛϩⲁⲛⲡⲉⲑⲛⲁⲛⲉⲩ ⳿ⲙⲡⲉ⳿ⲙⲑⲟ ⳿ⲛⲣⲱⲙⲓ ⲛⲓⲃⲉⲛ.
Do not repay anyone evil for evil. Have regard for things that everyone considers to be good.
If possible, what depends on you, live at peace with everyone.
19 ⲓ̅ⲑ̅ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉⲧⲉⲛϭⲓ ⳿ⲙⲡⲉⲧⲉⲛ⳿ⲙ⳿ⲡϣⲓϣ ⲁⲛ ⲛⲁⲙⲉⲛⲣⲁϯ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲙⲁⲙⲁ ⳿ⲙ⳿ⲡϫⲱⲛⲧ ⳿ⲥ⳿ⲥϧⲏⲟⲩⲧ ⲅⲁⲣ ϫⲉ ⳿ⲛϭⲓ⳿ⲙ⳿ⲡϣⲓϣ ⲫⲱⲓ ⳿ⲁⲛⲟⲕ ⲡⲉ ⳿ⲁⲛⲟⲕ ⲉⲑⲛⲁϯϣⲉⲃⲓⲱ ⲡⲉϫⲉ Ⲡ⳪.
Dear ones, do not avenge yourselves; rather give place to the wrath; for it is written: “Vengeance is up to me; I will repay,” says the Lord.
20 ⲕ̅ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲉϣⲱⲡ ⲁⲣⲉϣⲁⲛ ⲡⲉⲕϫⲁϫⲓ ⳿ϩⲕⲟ ⲙⲁⲧⲉⲙⲙⲟϥ ⲁϥϣⲁⲛ⳿ⲓⲃⲓ ⲙⲁ⳿ⲧⲥⲟϥ ⲫⲁⲓ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲉⲕⲣⲁ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟϥ ⲉⲕ⳿ⲉⲑⲱⲟⲩϯ ⳿ⲛϩⲁⲛϫⲉⲃⲥ ⳿ⲛ ⳿ⲭⲣⲱⲙ ϩⲓϫⲉⲛ ⲧⲉϥⲁⲫⲉ.
Therefore, “If your enemy is hungry, feed him; if he is thirsty, give him a drink; for in doing this you will heap coals of fire on his head.”
Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome the evil with the good.
