Romans 12 BSB
Living Sacrifices
1 Therefore I urge you, brothers, on account of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God, which is your spiritual service of worship. See the Greek order
2 Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what is the good, pleasing, and perfect will of God. See the Greek order
3 For by the grace given me I say to every one of you: Do not think of yourself more highly than you ought, but think of yourself with sober judgment, according to the measure of faith God has given you. See the Greek order
4 Just as each of us has one body with many members, and not all members have the same function, See the Greek order
5 so in Christ we who are many are one body, and each member belongs to one another. See the Greek order
6 We have different gifts according to the grace given us. If one’s gift is prophecy, let him use it in proportion to his faith; See the Greek order
7 if it is serving, let him serve; if it is teaching, let him teach; See the Greek order
8 if it is encouraging, let him encourage; if it is giving, let him give generously; if it is leading, let him lead with diligence; if it is showing mercy, let him do it cheerfully. See the Greek order
Love, Zeal, Hope, Hospitality
9 Love must be sincere. Detest what is evil; cling to what is good. See the Greek order
10 Be devoted to one another in brotherly love. Outdo yourselves in honoring one another. See the Greek order
11 Do not let your zeal subside; keep your spiritual fervor, serving the Lord. See the Greek order
12 Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, persistent in prayer. See the Greek order
13 Share with the saints who are in need. Practice hospitality. See the Greek order
Forgiveness
14 Bless those who persecute you. Bless and do not curse. See the Greek order
15 Rejoice with those who rejoice; weep with those who weep. See the Greek order
16 Live in harmony with one another. Do not be proud, but associate with the lowly. Do not be conceited. See the Greek order
17 Do not repay anyone evil for evil. Carefully consider what is right in the eyes of everybody. See the Greek order
18 If it is possible on your part, live at peace with everyone. See the Greek order
19 Do not avenge yourselves, beloved, but leave room for God’s wrath. For it is written: “Vengeance is Mine; I will repay, says the Lord.” See the Greek order
20 On the contrary, “If your enemy is hungry, feed him; if he is thirsty, give him a drink. For in so doing, you will heap burning coals on his head.” See the Greek order
21 Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good. See the Greek order
