12Romans 12

1I beseech you therefore, brothers, by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your reasonable service.Select Romans 12:1

2And be not conformed to this world: but be you transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.Select Romans 12:2

3For I say, through the grace given to 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 has dealt to every man the measure of faith.Select Romans 12:3

4For as we have many members in one body, and all members have not the same office:Select Romans 12:4

5So we, being many, are one body in Christ, and every one members one of another.Select Romans 12:5

6Having then gifts differing according to the grace that is given to us, whether prophecy, let us prophesy according to the proportion of faith;Select Romans 12:6

7Or ministry, let us wait on our ministering: or he that teaches, on teaching;Select Romans 12:7

8Or he that exhorts, on exhortation: he that gives, let him do it with simplicity; he that rules, with diligence; he that shows mercy, with cheerfulness.Select Romans 12:8

9Let love be without dissimulation. Abhor that which is evil; hold to that which is good.Select Romans 12:9

10Be kindly affectionate one to another with brotherly love; in honor preferring one another;Select Romans 12:10

11Not slothful in business; fervent in spirit; serving the Lord;Select Romans 12:11

12Rejoicing in hope; patient in tribulation; continuing instant in prayer;Select Romans 12:12

13Distributing to the necessity of saints; given to hospitality.Select Romans 12:13

14Bless them which persecute you: bless, and curse not.Select Romans 12:14

15Rejoice with them that do rejoice, and weep with them that weep.Select Romans 12:15

16Be 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.Select Romans 12:16

17Recompense to no man evil for evil. Provide things honest in the sight of all men.Select Romans 12:17

18If it be possible, as much as lies in you, live peaceably with all men.Select Romans 12:18

19Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give place to wrath: for it is written, Vengeance is mine; I will repay, says the Lord.Select Romans 12:19

20Therefore if your enemy hunger, feed him; if he thirst, give him drink: for in so doing you shall heap coals of fire on his head.Select Romans 12:20

21Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good.Select Romans 12:21
