Romans 12
Darby Bible
1I beseech you thereforeG3767, brethren, by the compassions of 1GodG2316, to presentG3936 your bodiesG4983 a livingG2198 sacrificeG2378, holyG40, acceptable to 2GodG2316, [which is] your intelligent serviceG2999. 2And be not conformed to this world, but be transformedG3339 by the renewingG342 of [your] mindG3563, that ye may prove what [is] the goodG18 and acceptable and perfectG5046 will of 3GodG2316. 3For I sayG3004, through the graceG5485 which has beenG1510 givenG1325 to me, to every oneG1538 that isG1510 among you, not to have high thoughts above what he should thinkG5426; but to thinkG5426 so as to beG1510 wise, as 4GodG2316 has dealt to each a measureG3358 of faithG4102. 4For, as in oneG1520 bodyG4983 we have manyG4183 membersG3196, but all the membersG3196 have not the sameG846 office; 5thusG3779 we, [beingG1510] manyG4183, areG1510 oneG1520 bodyG4983 in ChristG5547, and each oneG1520 membersG3196 oneG1520 of the other. 6But having different giftsG5486, accordingG2596 to the graceG5485 which has been givenG1325 to us, whether [it be] prophecyG4394, [let us prophesy] accordingG2596 to the proportion of faithG4102; 7or serviceG1248, [let us occupy ourselves] in serviceG1248; or he that teachesG1321, in teachingG1321; 8or he that exhortsG3870, in exhortationG3874; he that gives, in simplicity; he that leads, with diligenceG4710; he that shews mercyG1653, with cheerfulness. 9Let loveG26 be unfeigned; abhorring evilG4190; cleaving to goodG18: 10as to brotherlyG5360 loveG5360, kindly affectioned towards oneG240 another: as to honour, each taking the lead in paying it to the otherG240: 11as to diligent zealousness, not slothful; in spiritG4151 ferventG2204; servingG1398 the LordG2962. 12As regards hopeG1680, rejoicingG5463: as regards tribulationG2347, enduring: as regards prayerG4335, persevering: 13distributing to the necessities of the saintsG40; given to hospitalityG5381. 14BlessG2127 them that persecuteG1377 you; blessG2127, and curseG2672 not. 15RejoiceG5463 with those that rejoiceG5463, weepG2799 with those that weepG2799. 16Have the sameG846 respect oneG240 for another, not minding highG5308 things, but going along with the lowly: be not wiseG5429 in your ownG1438 eyes: 17recompensing to no oneG3367 evilG2556 for evilG2556: providing thingsG3956 honest before all menG444: 18if possibleG1415, as far as depends on you, living in peaceG1514 with all menG444; 19not avenging yourselves, belovedG27, but giveG1325 placeG5117 to wrathG3709; for it is writtenG1125, VengeanceG1557 [belongs] to me, I will recompense, saith the LordG2962. 20If therefore thine enemyG2190 should hungerG3983, feed him; if he should thirstG1372, give him drinkG4222; for, so doing, thou shalt heap coals of fireG4442 upon his headG2776. 21Be not overcomeG3528 by evilG2556, but overcomeG3528 evilG2556 with goodG18.
