Romans 12:6-21

6And having giftsG5486 differing accordingG2596 to the graceG5485 that was givenG1325 to us, whether prophecyG4394, let us prophesy accordingG2596 to the proportion of our faithG4102; 7or ministryG1248, let us give ourselves to our ministryG1248; or he that teacheth, to his teachingG1321; 8or he that exhorteth, to his exhortingG3870: he that giveth, let him do it with liberality; he that ruleth, with diligenceG4710; he that showeth mercyG1653, with cheerfulness.

9Let loveG26 be without hypocrisy. Abhor that which is evilG4190; cleave to that which is goodG18. 10In loveG5360 of the brethren be tenderly affectioned oneG240 to another; in honorG5092 preferring oneG240 another; 11in diligenceG4710 not slothful; ferventG2204 in spiritG4151; servingG1398 the LordG2962; 12rejoicingG5463 in hopeG1680; patient in tribulationG2347; continuingG4342 stedfastly in prayerG4335; 13communicating to the necessities of the saintsG40; given to hospitalityG5381. 14BlessG2127 them that persecuteG1377 you; blessG2127, and curseG2672 not. 15RejoiceG5463 with them that rejoiceG5463; weepG2799 with them that weepG2799. 16Be of the sameG846 mindG5426 oneG240 toward another. Set not your mindG5426 on highG5308 things, but condescend to things that are lowly. Be not wiseG5429 in your ownG1438 conceits. 17RenderG591 to no manG444 evilG2556 for evilG2556. Take thought for thingsG3956 honorable in the sight of all menG444. 18If it be possibleG1415, as much as in you lieth, be at peaceG1514 with all menG444. 19AvengeG1556 not yourselvesG1438, belovedG27, but giveG1325 placeG5117 unto the wrathG3709 of God: for it is writtenG1125, VengeanceG1557 belongeth unto me; I will recompense, saith the LordG2962. 20But if thine enemyG2190 hungerG3983, feed him; if he thirstG1372, give him to drinkG4222: for in so doing thou shalt heap coals of fireG4442 upon his headG2776. 21Be not overcomeG3528 of evilG2556, but overcomeG3528 evilG2556 with goodG18.
