Romans 12
1 I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies
of God, that ye present your bodies a living
sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your
reasonable service.
2 And be not conformed to this world: but be ye
transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may
prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect,
will of God.
3 For I say, through the grace given unto me, to
every man that is among you, not to think of himself
more highly than he ought to think; but to think
soberly, according as God hath dealt to every man the
measure of faith.
4 For as we have many members in one body, and all
members have not the same office:
5 So we, being many, are one body in Christ, and
every one members one of another.
6 Having then gifts differing according to the grace
that is given to us, whether prophecy, let us
prophesy according to the proportion of faith;
7 Or ministry, let us wait on our ministering: or he
that teacheth, on teaching;
8 Or he that exhorteth, on exhortation: he that
giveth, let him do it with simplicity; he that
ruleth, with diligence; he that sheweth mercy, with
cheerfulness.
9 Let love be without dissimulation. Abhor that
which is evil; cleave to that which is good.
10 Be kindly affectioned one to another with
brotherly love; in honour preferring one another;
11 Not slothful in business; fervent in spirit;
serving the Lord;
12 Rejoicing in hope; patient in tribulation;
continuing instant in prayer;
13 Distributing to the necessity of saints; given to
hospitality.
14 Bless them which persecute you: bless, and curse
not.
15 Rejoice with them that do rejoice, and weep with
them that weep.
16 Be of the same mind one toward another. Mind not
high things, but condescend to men of low estate. Be
not wise in your own conceits.
17 Recompense to no man evil for evil. Provide things
honest in the sight of all men.
18 If it be possible, as much as lieth in you, live
peaceably with all men.
19 Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather
give place unto wrath: for it is written, Vengeance
is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord.
20 Therefore if thine enemy hunger, feed him; if he
thirst, give him drink: for in so doing thou shalt
heap coals of fire on his head.
21 Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with
good.
