Romans 12

1 I call on you, therefore, brothers, through the compassions of God, to present your bodies [as] a sacrifice—living, sanctified, acceptable to God—your intelligent service;

I exhort therefore you, brothers, through the compassions of God, to present the bodies of you a sacrifice living holy well-pleasing to God which is the reasonable service of you.

2 and do not be conformed to this age, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, for your proving what [is] the will of God—the good, and acceptable, and perfect. (aiōn g165)

And not (do be conformed *NK(o)*) to the age this, but (do be transformed *NK(o)*) by the renewing of the mind (of you *k*) for to prove by you what [is] the will of God good and well-pleasing and perfect. (aiōn g165)

3 For I say, through the grace that was given to me, to everyone who is among you, not to think above what it ought to think; but to think so as to think wisely, as to each God dealt a measure of faith,

I say for through the grace which having been given to me to everyone who is being among you, not to be high-minded above what it behooves [you] to think, but to think so as to be sober-minded, to each as God has allotted a measure of faith.

4 for as in one body we have many members, and all the members do not have the same office,

Just as for in one body many members we have, now the members all not the same have function,

5 so we, the many, are one body in Christ, and members of one another—each one.

so the many one body we are in Christ, (*N(k)O*) and individually one of another members.

6 And having gifts, different according to the grace that was given to us: whether prophecy, according to the proportion of faith;

We are having however gifts according to the grace which having been given to us different, if prophecy according to the proportion of the faith,

7 or ministry, in the ministry; or he who is teaching, in the teaching;

or service in the service, or the [one] teaching in the teaching,

8 or he who is exhorting, in the exhortation; he who is sharing, in simplicity; he who is leading, in diligence; he who is doing kindness, in cheerfulness.

or the [one] exhorting in the exhortation, the [one] giving in generosity, the [one] leading with diligence, the [one] showing mercy with cheerfulness.

9 The love unhypocritical: abhorring the evil; cleaving to the good;

[Let] love [be] unfeigned. abhorring evil, cleaving to good;

10 in the love of brothers, to one another kindly affectioned: in the honor going before one another;

in brotherly love to one another devoted in honor one another esteeming,

11 in the diligence not slothful; in the spirit fervent; serving the LORD;

in diligence not lagging, in spirit being fervent, the (Lord *NK(O)*) serving,

12 in the hope rejoicing; in the tribulation enduring; in the prayer persevering;

in hope rejoicing, in tribulation being patient, in prayer being constant,

13 to the necessities of the holy ones communicating; the hospitality pursuing.

to the needs of the saints contributing, hospitality pursuing;

14 Bless those persecuting you; bless, and do not curse;

do bless those persecuting you; do bless and not do curse.

15 to rejoice with the rejoicing, and to weep with the weeping,

to rejoice with the rejoicing, (and *k*) to weep with the weeping.

16 of the same mind toward one another, not minding the high things, but with the lowly going along; do not become wise in your own conceit;

the same thing toward one another minding, not the [things] haughty minding, but with the lowly going along. Not do be wise in yourselves.

17 giving back to no one evil for evil; providing right things before all men.

To no one evil for evil repaying, providing right before all men;

18 If possible—so far as in you—with all men being in peace;

if possible of you with all men living at peace,

19 not avenging yourselves, beloved, but give place to the wrath, for it has been written: “Vengeance [is] Mine,

never yourselves avenging, beloved, instead do give place to wrath; it has been written for: Mine [is] vengeance, I myself will repay, says [the] Lord.

20 I will repay again, says the LORD”; if, then, your enemy hungers, feed him; if he thirsts, give him drink; for doing this, you will heap coals of fire on his head.

(On the contrary *N(K)O*) If shall hunger the enemy of you, do feed him; if he shall thirst, do give drink him; this for doing coals of fire you will heap upon the head of him.

21 Do not be overcome by the evil, but overcome, in the good, the evil.

Not do be overcome by evil but do overcome with good evil.
