Chapter 12

1


 

  I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, [which is] your spiritual service.  

 

 

-

2


 

  And be not fashioned according to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, and ye may prove what is the good and acceptable and perfect will of God.  

 

 

-

3


 

  For I say, through the grace that was given me, to every man that is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think; but to think as to think soberly, according as God hath dealt to each man a measure of faith.  

 

 

-

4


 

  For even as we have many members in one body, and all the members have not the same office:  

 

 

-

5


 

  so we, who are many, are one body in Christ, and severally members one of another.  

 

 

-

6


 

  And having gifts differing according to the grace that was given to us, whether prophecy, [let us prophesy] according to the proportion of our faith;  

 

 

-

7


 

  or ministry, [let us give ourselves] to our ministry; or he that teacheth, to his teaching;  

 

 

-

8


 

  or he that exhorteth, to his exhorting: he that giveth, [let him do it] with liberality; he that ruleth, with diligence; he that showeth mercy, with cheerfulness.  

 

 

-

9


 

  Let love be without hypocrisy. Abhor that which is evil; cleave to that which is good.  

 

 

-

10


 

  In love of the brethren be tenderly affectioned one to another; in honor preferring one another;  

 

 

-

11


 

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

 

 

-

12


 

  rejoicing in hope; patient in tribulation; continuing stedfastly in prayer;  

 

 

-

13


 

  communicating to the necessities of the saints; given to hospitality.  

 

 

-

14


 

  Bless them that persecute you; bless, and curse not.  

 

 

-

15


 

  Rejoice with them that rejoice; weep with them that weep.  

 

 

-

16


 

  Be of the same mind one toward another. Set not your mind on high things, but condescend to things that are lowly. Be not wise in your own conceits.  

 

 

-

17


 

  Render to no man evil for evil. Take thought for things honorable in the sight of all men.  

 

 

-

18


 

  If it be possible, as much as in you lieth, be at peace with all men.  

 

 

-

19


 

  Avenge not yourselves, beloved, but give place unto the wrath [of God]: for it is written, Vengeance belongeth unto me; I will recompense, saith the Lord.  

 

 

-

20


 

  But if thine enemy hunger, feed him; if he thirst, give him to drink: for in so doing thou shalt heap coals of fire upon his head.  

 

 

-

21


 

  Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good.
