Romans 12

12 I call upon you, therefore, brethren, through the compassions of God, to present your bodies a sacrifice -- living, sanctified, acceptable to God -- your intelligent service;

^2 ^and be not conformed to this age, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, for your proving what [is] the will of God -- the good, and acceptable, and perfect.

^3 ^For I say, through the grace that was given to me, to every one who is among you, not to think above what it behoveth to think; but to think so as to think wisely, as to each God did deal a measure of faith,

^4 ^for as in one body we have many members, and all the members have not the same office,

^5 ^so we, the many, one body are in Christ, and members each one of one another.

^6 ^And having gifts, different according to the grace that was given to us; whether prophecy -- `According to the proportion of faith!'

^7 ^or ministration -- In the ministration!' or he who is teaching -- In the teaching!'

^8 ^or he who is exhorting -- In the exhortation!' he who is sharing -- In simplicity!' he who is leading -- In diligence?' he who is doing kindness -- In cheerfulness.'

^9 ^The love unfeigned: abhorring the evil; cleaving to the good;

^10 ^in the love of brethren, to one another kindly affectioned: in the honour going before one another;

^11 ^in the diligence not slothful; in the spirit fervent; the Lord serving;

^12 ^in the hope rejoicing; in the tribulation enduring; in the prayer //tefillos// persevering;

^13 ^to the necessities //pshke [sacrifice](https://app.thebrain.com/brain/9d9e6e01-35d1-431b-8520-6e7ad360f8ce/e56b25d8-b21d-4371-8be5-1fc1200676fd)- // of the saints communicating; the hospitality pursuing.

^14 ^Bless those persecuting you; bless, and curse not;

^15 ^to rejoice with the rejoicing, and to weep with the weeping,

^16 ^of the same mind one toward another, not minding the high things, but with the lowly going along; become not wise in your own conceit;

^17 ^giving back to no one evil for evil; providing right things before all men.

^18 ^If possible -- so far as in you -- with all men being in peace;

^19 ^not avenging yourselves, beloved, but give place to the wrath, for it hath been written, `Vengeance [is] Mine,

^20 ^I will recompense again, saith the Lord;' if, then, thine enemy doth hunger, feed him; if he doth thirst, give him drink; for this doing, coals of fire thou shalt heap upon his head;

^21 ^Be not overcome by the evil, but overcome, in the good, the evil.
