Romans 12

1 I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, well-pleasing to God, which is your spiritual worship;

he bhrAtara Ishvarasya kR^ipayAhaM yuShmAn vinaye yUyaM svaM svaM sharIraM sajIvaM pavitraM grAhyaM balim Ishvaramuddishya samutsR^ijata, eShA sevA yuShmAkaM yogyA|

2 and be not conformed to the fashion of this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that ye may learn by experience what is the will of God, what is good, and well-pleasing, and perfect. (aiōn g165)

aparaM yUyaM sAMsArikA iva mAcharata, kintu svaM svaM svabhAvaM parAvartya nUtanAchAriNo bhavata, tata Ishvarasya nideshaH kIdR^ig uttamo grahaNIyaH sampUrNashcheti yuShmAbhiranubhAviShyate| (aiōn g165)

3 For through the grace given to me I warn every one among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think, but to think soberly, according to the measure of faith which God hath imparted to each.

kashchidapi jano yogyatvAdadhikaM svaM na manyatAM kintu Ishvaro yasmai pratyayasya yatparimANam adadAt sa tadanusArato yogyarUpaM svaM manutAm, IshvarAd anugrahaM prAptaH san yuShmAkam ekaikaM janam ityAj nApayAmi|

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

yato yadvadasmAkam ekasmin sharIre bahUnya NgAni santi kintu sarvveShAma NgAnAM kAryyaM samAnaM nahi;

5 so we, though many, form one body in Christ, and each of us is a member of it in common with the rest.

tadvadasmAkaM bahutve. api sarvve vayaM khrIShTe ekasharIrAH parasparam a Ngapratya Ngatvena bhavAmaH|

6 Having then gifts which dither according to the grace which hath been bestowed upon us, if we have prophecy, let us prophesy according to the proportion of our faith;

asmAd IshvarAnugraheNa visheShaM visheShaM dAnam asmAsu prApteShu satsu kopi yadi bhaviShyadvAkyaM vadati tarhi pratyayasya parimANAnusArataH sa tad vadatu;

7 or if service, let us attend to the service; he that teacheth, let him attend to teaching;

yadvA yadi kashchit sevanakArI bhavati tarhi sa tatsevanaM karotu; athavA yadi kashchid adhyApayitA bhavati tarhi so. adhyApayatu;

8 or he that exhorteth, to exhortation; he that giveth, let him do it with liberality; he that presideth over others, with diligence; he that doeth deeds of mercy, with cheerfulness.

tathA ya upadeShTA bhavati sa upadishatu yashcha dAtA sa saralatayA dadAtu yastvadhipatiH sa yatnenAdhipatitvaM karotu yashcha dayAluH sa hR^iShTamanasA dayatAm|

9 Let your love be unfeigned. Abhor that which is evil, cleave to that which is good.

apara ncha yuShmAkaM prema kApaTyavarjitaM bhavatu yad abhadraM tad R^itIyadhvaM yachcha bhadraM tasmin anurajyadhvam|

10 In brotherly love, be affectionate to one another; in honor, give each other the preference.

aparaM bhrAtR^itvapremnA parasparaM prIyadhvaM samAdarAd eko. aparajanaM shreShThaM jAnIdhvam|

11 Be not backward in zeal; be fervent in spirit; serving the Lord.

tathA kAryye nirAlasyA manasi cha sodyogAH santaH prabhuM sevadhvam|

12 Rejoice in hope; be patient in affliction; persevere in prayer.

aparaM pratyAshAyAm AnanditA duHkhasamaye cha dhairyyayuktA bhavata; prArthanAyAM satataM pravarttadhvaM|

13 Relieve the wants of the holy; be given to hospitality.

pavitrANAM dInatAM dUrIkurudhvam atithisevAyAm anurajyadhvam|

14 Bless those who persecute you; bless, and curse not.

ye janA yuShmAn tADayanti tAn AshiShaM vadata shApam adattvA daddhvamAshiSham|

15 Rejoice with those who rejoice; weep with those who weep.

ye janA Anandanti taiH sArddham Anandata ye cha rudanti taiH saha rudita|

16 Be of one mind among yourselves. Set not your minds on high things, but content yourselves with what is humble. Be not wise in your own conceits.

apara ncha yuShmAkaM manasAM parasparam ekobhAvo bhavatu; aparam uchchapadam anAkA NkShya nIchalokaiH sahApi mArdavam Acharata; svAn j nAnino na manyadhvaM|

17 Render to no one evil for evil; have regard to what is honorable in the sight of all men.

parasmAd apakAraM prApyApi paraM nApakuruta| sarvveShAM dR^iShTito yat karmmottamaM tadeva kuruta|

18 If it be possible, as far as dependeth on you, be at peace with all men.

yadi bhavituM shakyate tarhi yathAshakti sarvvalokaiH saha nirvvirodhena kAlaM yApayata|

19 Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather make room for wrath; for it is written, “Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord.”

he priyabandhavaH, kasmaichid apakArasya samuchitaM daNDaM svayaM na daddhvaM, kintvIshvarIyakrodhAya sthAnaM datta yato likhitamAste parameshvaraH kathayati, dAnaM phalasya matkarmma sUchitaM pradadAmyahaM|

20 Therefore, “if thy enemy hunger, feed him; if he thirst, give him drink. For in so doing thou wilt heap coals of fire on his head.”

itikAraNAd ripu ryadi kShudhArttaste tarhi taM tvaM prabhojaya| tathA yadi tR^iShArttaH syAt tarhi taM paripAyaya| tena tvaM mastake tasya jvaladagniM nidhAsyasi|

21 Be not overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.
