Romans Chapter 12

The Darby Bible

   1: I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the compassions of God, to present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, [which is] your intelligent service.
   2: And be not conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of [your] mind, that ye may prove what [is] the good and acceptable and perfect will of God.
   3: For I say, through the grace which has been given to me, to every one that is among you, not to have high thoughts above what he should think; but to think so as to be wise, as God has dealt to each a measure of faith.
   4: For, as in one body we have many members, but all the members have not the same office;
   5: thus we, [being] many, are one body in Christ, and each one members one of the other.
   6: But having different gifts, according to the grace which has been given to us, whether [it be] prophecy, [let us prophesy] according to the proportion of faith;
   7: or service, [let us occupy ourselves] in service; or he that teaches, in teaching;
   8: or he that exhorts, in exhortation; he that gives, in simplicity; he that leads, with diligence; he that shews mercy, with cheerfulness.
   9: Let love be unfeigned; abhorring evil; cleaving to good:
   10: as to brotherly love, kindly affectioned towards one another: as to honour, each taking the lead in paying it to the other:
   11: as to diligent zealousness, not slothful; in spirit fervent; serving the Lord.
   12: As regards hope, rejoicing: as regards tribulation, enduring: as regards prayer, persevering:
   13: distributing to the necessities of the saints; given to hospitality.
   14: Bless them that persecute you; bless, and curse not.
   15: Rejoice with those that rejoice, weep with those that weep.
   16: Have the same respect one for another, not minding high things, but going along with the lowly: be not wise in your own eyes:
   17: recompensing to no one evil for evil: providing things honest before all men:
   18: if possible, as far as depends on you, living in peace with all men;
   19: not avenging yourselves, beloved, but give place to wrath; for it is written, Vengeance [belongs] to me, I will recompense, saith the Lord.
   20: If therefore thine enemy should hunger, feed him; if he should thirst, give him drink; for, so doing, thou shalt heap coals of fire upon his head.
   21: Be not overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.
