Ndị Rom 12
1 Ya mere, ụmụnna m, eji m obi ebere Chineke na-arịọ ka unu chee anụ ahụ unu dịka aja dị ndụ, dịkwa nsọ, ma bụrụkwa nke na-atọ Chineke ụtọ, nke bụkwa ofufe nke ime mmụọ unu.
I urge you therefore, brothers, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and acceptable to God, your reasonable religious service.
2 Unu eyila ụwa nke a, kama bụrụnụ ndị enwoghara site nʼịgbanwe uche unu. Mgbe ahụ, unu ga-enwe ike nwapụta ihe bụ uche Chineke na ihe ọ na-achọ, nke bụ ezi ihe, nke na-atọ ya ụtọ na nke zukwara oke. (aiōn g165)
Do not be conformed to this age, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may determine what is the good, acceptable, and perfect will of God. (aiōn g165)
3 Dịka onyinye amara e nyere m siri dị, ana m adọ onye ọbụla nʼime unu aka na ntị sị, Unu atụkwasịla uche nʼechiche banyere onwe unu karịa ka o si kwesi. Kama, jirinụ obi dị umeala lee onwe unu anya dịka okwukwe Chineke nyere unu ha.
For by the grace given to me I tell everyone among you not to think more highly of himself than he ought to think, but to think sensibly, in accordance with the measure of faith that God has distributed to each one of you.
4 Dịka anyị niile nʼotu nʼotu si nwe anụ ahụ nke nwere akụkụ dị iche iche, bụ akụkụ ndị na-arụ ọrụ dị iche iche,
For just as in one body we have many members, and all the members do not have the same function,
5 nʼotu aka ahụ, nʼime Kraịst anyị bụ otu, nʼagbanyeghị na anyị bụ akụkụ dị iche iche nke otu anụ ahụ. E jikọtara anyị niile nʼotu nʼotu nye ibe anyị.
so we, who are many, are one body in Christ, and individually members of one another.
6 Anyị nwere onyinye dị iche iche nke e sitere nʼamara nye anyị, ọ bụrụ na onye ọbụla nwere onyinye ibu amụma, ya buo ya dịka okwukwe o nwere ha.
We have different gifts according to the grace given to us. If someone's gift is prophecy, he should prophesy in proportion to his faith;
7 Ọ bụrụ ije ozi, ya jee ozi, ya bụrụkwanụ izi ihe, ya zie ihe.
if it is service, he should serve; if it is teaching, he should teach;
8 Ka onye nwere onyinye ịgbaume, gbaa ndị ọzọ ume, ya bụrụkwanụ inyeaka, ka onye nwere onyinye a site nʼafọ ofufu mee ya, ọ bụrụ ịbụ onyendu, ka onye ahụ duo site nʼikpachapụ anya, ya bụrụkwanụ ime ebere, ka onye ahụ jiri obi ụtọ na-eme ya.
if it is exhortation, he should exhort; if it is giving, he should do so generously; if it is leadership, he should do so diligently; if it is showing mercy, he should do so cheerfully.
9 Ka ịhụnanya bụrụ nke ihu abụọ nʼadịghị na ya, kpọọ ihe ọjọọ asị, jidesie ihe dị mma ike.
Love must be without hypocrisy. Abhor what is evil; cling to what is good.
10 Hụrịtanụ onwe unu nʼanya, dịka ụmụ nke otu nna. Ka ihe ibe unu na-eme na-atọ unu ụtọ. Na-asọpụkwaranụ ibe unu karịa otu ha si asọpụrụ unu.
Be devoted to one another in brotherly love. Take the lead in honoring one another.
11 Unu abụla ndị umengwụ nʼọrụ unu. Kama werenụ mmụọ na obi na-anụ ọkụ na-ejere Onyenwe anyị ozi mgbe niile.
Do not lack diligence in zeal, but be fervent in spirit, serving the Lord.
12 Nweenụ obi aṅụrị nʼime olileanya, nweenụ ntachiobi nʼime nsogbu, na-ekpekwanụ ekpere mgbe niile.
Rejoice in hope, persevere in tribulation, and persist in prayer.
13 Na enyetụnụ ụfọdụ ndị nsọ ihe site nʼihe unu nwere iji gboo mkpa dịrị ha. Na-elekọtakwanụ ndị ọbịa anya nke ọma.
Contribute to the needs of the saints, and pursue hospitality.
14 Gọzienụ ndị na-akpagbu unu, gọzienụ ha, unu abụkwala ha ọnụ.
Bless those who persecute you; bless, and do not curse.
15 Mgbe ndị ọzọ na-aṅụrị ọṅụ, soronụ ha ṅụrịa ọṅụ. Mgbe ha nọ nʼiru ụjụ, soronụ ha ruo ụjụ.
Rejoice with those who rejoice, and weep with those who weep.
16 Na-ebinụ nʼudo. A bụla onye mpako, unu na ndị ọnọdụ ha dị ala na-enwe mmekọrịta, echekwala na ị maara ihe niile.
Be of the same mind toward one another. Do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly. Do not be wise in your own estimation.
17 Ejikwala ihe ọjọọ akwụghachi ihe ọjọọ e mere gị. Kama, na-echenụ otu unu ga-esi mee ihe dị mma nʼanya mmadụ niile.
Repay no one evil for evil, but have regard for what is right in the sight of all.
18 Dịka ike gị niile ha, mee ka gị na onye ọbụla biri nʼudo.
If possible, as far as it depends on you, be at peace with everyone.
19 Ndị enyi m, unu abọla ọbọ, kama hapụrụnụ Chineke ọrụ ịbọtara unu ọbọ. Nʼihi na e dere ya, “Ịbọ ọbọ dịrị m, aga m akwụghachi,” ka Onyenwe anyị kwuru.
Do not avenge yourselves, beloved, but leave room for the wrath of God, for it is written, “Vengeance is mine; I will repay, says the Lord.”
20 Ma otu ọ dị, “ọ bụrụ na agụụ na-agụ onye iro gị, were nri zụọ ya, ọ bụrụkwa na akpịrị na-akpọ ya nkụ, nye ihe ọṅụṅụ ka ọ ṅụọ, mgbe ị na-eme nke a, ị na-agụkwasị icheku ọkụ na-ere ere nʼisi ya.”
Therefore, “if yoʋr enemy is hungry, feed him; if he is thirsty, give him something to drink; for by doing so, yoʋ will heap coals of fire on his head.”
21 Unu ekwela ka ihe ọjọọ merie unu, kama werenụ ezi ihe merie ihe ọjọọ.
Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.
