Romana 12

1 Koa amin’ izany mangataka aminareo aho, ry rahalahy, noho ny famindram-pon’ Andriamanitra, mba hatolotrareo ny tenanareo ho fanatitra velona, masìna, sitrak’ Andriamanitra, dia fanompoam-panahy mety hataonareo izany.

I exhort you, therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, your reasonable service:

2 Ary aza manaraka ny fanaon’ izao tontolo izao; fa miovà amin’ ny fanavaozana ny saina, hamantaranareo ny sitrapon’ Andriamanitra, dia izay tsara sady ankasitrahana no marina. (aiōn g165)

and he not fashioned after this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is the good and acceptable and perfect will of God. (aiōn g165)

3 Fa noho ny fahasoavana nomena ahy dia izao no lazaiko amin’ ny olona rehetra izay eo aminareo: Aza mihevitra mihoatra noho izay tokony hoheverina; fa mihevera izay onony araka ny ohatry ny finoana izay nozarain’ Andriamanitra ho anareo avy.

For I speak, through the grace which has been given unto me, for every one who is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think; but to think soberly, as God has imparted to each one the measure of faith.

4 Fa toy ny ananantsika zavatra maro momba ny tena iray, nefa tsy mitovy asa izay rehetra momba ny tena,

For we indeed have many members in one body, but all the members have not the same office:

5 dia toy izany koa isika, na dia maro aza, dia tena iray ihany ao amin’ i Kristy, ary samy miara-momba ny tena isika rehetra.

so we, being many, are one body in Christ, and members one of another.

6 Ary satria samy manana fanomezam-pahasoavana samy hafa isika, araka ny fahasoavana izay nomena antsika: raha faminaniana, dia aoka hatao araka ny ohatry ny finoana;

But having gifts differing according to the grace given unto us, whether prophecy, it is according to the analogy of faith;

7 raha fanompoana amin’ ny fiangonana, dia aoka ho amin’ ny fanompoana; raha mampianatra, dia aoka ho amin’ ny fampianarana;

or ministry, it is in the ministry; or he that teacheth, in teaching;

8 raha mananatra, dia aoka ho amin’ ny fananarana; izay manome, dia aoka ho amin’ ny fahatsoram-po; izay manapaka, dia aoka ho amin’ ny fahazotoana; izay mamindra fo, dia aoka ho amin’ ny fifaliana.

or he that exhorteth, in exhortation; or he that giveth, with a single eye; he that presideth, with diligence; he that showeth mercy, with cheerfulness.

9 Aoka ny fitiavana ho amin’ ny tsi-fihatsaram-belatsihy; mankahalà ny ratsy; mifikira amin’ ny tsara.

Let love be free from hypocrisy. Abhorring the evil, cleaving to the good:

10 Mifankatiava araka ny fifankatiavan’ ny mpirahalahy; mitariha lalana amin’ ny fifanomezam-boninahitra.

kindly affectionate one to another with brotherly love; in honor preferring one another;

11 Mazotoa, fa aza malaina, ary aoka hafana fo amin’ ny fanompoana ny Tompo.

not slothful in business; boiling over in spirit; serving the Lord;

12 Mifalia amin’ ny fanantenana; miareta amin’ ny fahoriana; mahareta amin’ ny fivavahana.

rejoicing in hope; patient in tribulation; continuing steadfastly in prayer;

13 Miantrà ny olona masìna araka izay ilainy; mazotoa mampiantrano vahiny.

communicating to necessities of the saints; pursuing hospitality.

14 Misaora izay manenjika anareo; misaora, fa aza manozona.

Bless them that persecute you; bless, and scold not.

15 Miaraha mifaly amin’ izay mifaly, ary miaraha mitomany amin’ izay mitomany.

Rejoice with them that rejoice; weep with them that weep.

16 Miraisa saina. Aza mihevitra izay hiavonavonana, fa aoka mba ho zatra amin’ ny fietrena ianareo. Aza manao ny tenanareo ho hendry.

Have the same mind toward one another, not thinking high things, but condescending to the humble. Be not wise in your own conceits.

17 Aza mamaly ratsy na amin’ iza na amin’ iza. Miomàna hanao izay mahamendrika eo imason’ ny olona rehetra.

Returning to no one evil for evil; providing things beautiful in the sight of all men.

18 Raha azo atao, dia ataovy izay hihavananareo amin’ ny olona rehetra.

If possible, so far as it is within your power, living in peace with all men;

19 Ry malala, aza mamaly ratsy, fa omeo lalana ny fahatezerana; fa voasoratra hoe: Ahy ny famaliana; Izaho no hamaly, hoy Jehovah.

avenging not yourselves, beloved, but give place to wrath; for it has been written, Vengeance belongs to me; I will repay, says the Lord.

20 Fa raha noana ny fahavalonao, omeo hanina izy; raha mangetaheta izy, omeo hosotroiny; fa raha manao izany ianao, dia hanambatra vainafo ho eo an-dohany.

But if your enemy is hungry, feed him; if he is thirsty, give him drink: for doing this you will heap coals of fire upon his head.

21 Aza mety ho resin’ ny ratsy ianao, fa reseo amin’ ny soa ny ratsy.

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