< 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;
hE bhrAtara Izvarasya kRpayAhaM yuSmAn vinayE yUyaM svaM svaM zarIraM sajIvaM pavitraM grAhyaM balim Izvaramuddizya samutsRjata, ESA sEvA yuSmAkaM yOgyA|
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)
aparaM yUyaM sAMsArikA iva mAcarata, kintu svaM svaM svabhAvaM parAvartya nUtanAcAriNO bhavata, tata Izvarasya nidEzaH kIdRg uttamO grahaNIyaH sampUrNazcEti yuSmAbhiranubhAviSyatE| (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,
kazcidapi janO yOgyatvAdadhikaM svaM na manyatAM kintu IzvarO yasmai pratyayasya yatparimANam adadAt sa tadanusAratO yOgyarUpaM svaM manutAm, IzvarAd anugrahaM prAptaH san yuSmAkam EkaikaM janam ityAjnjApayAmi|
4 for as in one body we have many members, and all the members do not have the same office,
yatO yadvadasmAkam Ekasmin zarIrE bahUnyaggAni santi kintu sarvvESAmaggAnAM kAryyaM samAnaM nahi;
5 so we, the many, are one body in Christ, and members of one another—each one.
tadvadasmAkaM bahutvE'pi sarvvE vayaM khrISTE EkazarIrAH parasparam aggapratyaggatvEna bhavAmaH|
6 And having gifts, different according to the grace that was given to us: whether prophecy, according to the proportion of faith;
asmAd IzvarAnugrahENa vizESaM vizESaM dAnam asmAsu prAptESu satsu kOpi yadi bhaviSyadvAkyaM vadati tarhi pratyayasya parimANAnusArataH sa tad vadatu;
7 or ministry, in the ministry; or he who is teaching, in the teaching;
yadvA yadi kazcit sEvanakArI bhavati tarhi sa tatsEvanaM karOtu; athavA yadi kazcid adhyApayitA bhavati tarhi sO'dhyApayatu;
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.
tathA ya upadESTA bhavati sa upadizatu yazca dAtA sa saralatayA dadAtu yastvadhipatiH sa yatnEnAdhipatitvaM karOtu yazca dayAluH sa hRSTamanasA dayatAm|
9 The love unhypocritical: abhorring the evil; cleaving to the good;
aparanjca yuSmAkaM prEma kApaTyavarjitaM bhavatu yad abhadraM tad RtIyadhvaM yacca bhadraM tasmin anurajyadhvam|
10 in the love of brothers, to one another kindly affectioned: in the honor going before one another;
aparaM bhrAtRtvaprEmnA parasparaM prIyadhvaM samAdarAd EkO'parajanaM zrESThaM jAnIdhvam|
11 in the diligence not slothful; in the spirit fervent; serving the LORD;
tathA kAryyE nirAlasyA manasi ca sOdyOgAH santaH prabhuM sEvadhvam|
12 in the hope rejoicing; in the tribulation enduring; in the prayer persevering;
aparaM pratyAzAyAm AnanditA duHkhasamayE ca dhairyyayuktA bhavata; prArthanAyAM satataM pravarttadhvaM|
13 to the necessities of the holy ones communicating; the hospitality pursuing.
pavitrANAM dInatAM dUrIkurudhvam atithisEvAyAm anurajyadhvam|
14 Bless those persecuting you; bless, and do not curse;
yE janA yuSmAn tAPayanti tAn AziSaM vadata zApam adattvA daddhvamAziSam|
15 to rejoice with the rejoicing, and to weep with the weeping,
yE janA Anandanti taiH sArddham Anandata yE ca rudanti taiH saha rudita|
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;
aparanjca yuSmAkaM manasAM parasparam EkObhAvO bhavatu; aparam uccapadam anAkAgkSya nIcalOkaiH sahApi mArdavam Acarata; svAn jnjAninO na manyadhvaM|
17 giving back to no one evil for evil; providing right things before all men.
parasmAd apakAraM prApyApi paraM nApakuruta| sarvvESAM dRSTitO yat karmmOttamaM tadEva kuruta|
18 If possible—so far as in you—with all men being in peace;
yadi bhavituM zakyatE tarhi yathAzakti sarvvalOkaiH saha nirvvirOdhEna kAlaM yApayata|
19 not avenging yourselves, beloved, but give place to the wrath, for it has been written: “Vengeance [is] Mine,
hE priyabandhavaH, kasmaicid apakArasya samucitaM daNPaM svayaM na daddhvaM, kintvIzvarIyakrOdhAya sthAnaM datta yatO likhitamAstE paramEzvaraH kathayati, dAnaM phalasya matkarmma sUcitaM pradadAmyahaM|
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.
itikAraNAd ripu ryadi kSudhArttastE tarhi taM tvaM prabhOjaya| tathA yadi tRSArttaH syAt tarhi taM paripAyaya| tEna tvaM mastakE tasya jvaladagniM nidhAsyasi|
21 Do not be overcome by the evil, but overcome, in the good, the evil.
kukriyayA parAjitA na santa uttamakriyayA kukriyAM parAjayata|
