The Epistle of Paul the Apostle to the Romans

King James Version :: World English Bible Catholic

- Kapitel 12 -

(1 Corinthians 3:16–23; 1 Corinthians 6:18–20)
1
I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service.
2
And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.
3
For I say, through the grace given unto 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 hath dealt to every man the measure of faith.
4
For as we have many members in one body, and all members have not the same office:
5
So we, being many, are one body in Christ, and every one members one of another.
6
Having then gifts differing according to the grace that is given to us, whether prophecy, let us prophesy according to the proportion of faith;
7
Or ministry, let us wait on our ministering: or he that teacheth, on teaching;
8
Or he that exhorteth, on exhortation: he that giveth, let him do it with simplicity; he that ruleth, with diligence; he that sheweth mercy, with cheerfulness.

Love, Zeal, Hope, Hospitality

(John 13:31–35; 1 John 3:11–24)
9
Let love be without dissimulation. Abhor that which is evil; cleave to that which is good.
10
Be kindly affectioned one to another with brotherly love; in honour preferring one another;
11
Not slothful in business; fervent in spirit; serving the Lord;
12
Rejoicing in hope; patient in tribulation; continuing instant in prayer;
13
Distributing to the necessity of saints; given to hospitality.

Forgiveness

(Matthew 18:21–35)
14
Bless them which persecute you: bless, and curse not.
15
Rejoice with them that do rejoice, and weep with them that weep.
16
Be 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.
17
Recompense to no man evil for evil. Provide things honest in the sight of all men.
18
If it be possible, as much as lieth in you, live peaceably with all men.
19
Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give place unto wrath: for it is written, Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord.
20
Therefore if thine enemy hunger, feed him; if he thirst, give him drink: for in so doing thou shalt heap coals of fire on his head.
21
Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good.
(1 Corinthians 3:16–23; 1 Corinthians 6:18–20)
1
Therefore I urge you, brothers, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your spiritual service.
2
Don’t be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what is the good, well-pleasing, and perfect will of God.
3
For I say through the grace that was given me, to everyone who is among you, not to think of yourself more highly than you ought to think; but to think reasonably, as God has apportioned to each person a measure of faith.
4
For even as we have many members in one body, and all the members don’t have the same function,
5
so we, who are many, are one body in Christ, and individually members of one another,
6
having gifts differing according to the grace that was given to us: if prophecy, lets prophesy according to the proportion of our faith;
7
or service, let’s give ourselves to service; or he who teaches, to his teaching;
8
or he who exhorts, to his exhorting; he who gives, let him do it with generosity; he who rules, with diligence; he who shows mercy, with cheerfulness.

Love, Zeal, Hope, Hospitality

(John 13:31–35; 1 John 3:11–24)
9
Let love be without hypocrisy. Abhor that which is evil. Cling to that which is good.
10
In love of the brothers be tenderly affectionate to one another; in honor prefer one another,
11
not lagging in diligence, fervent in spirit, serving the Lord,
12
rejoicing in hope, enduring in troubles, continuing steadfastly in prayer,
13
contributing to the needs of the saints, and given to hospitality.

Forgiveness

(Matthew 18:21–35)
14
Bless those who persecute you; bless, and don’t curse.
15
Rejoice with those who rejoice. Weep with those who weep.
16
Be of the same mind one toward another. Don’t set your mind on high things, but associate with the humble. Don’t be wise in your own conceits.
17
Repay no one evil for evil. Respect what is honorable in the sight of all men.
18
If it is possible, as much as it is up to you, be at peace with all men.
19
Don’t seek revenge yourselves, beloved, but give place to Gods wrath. For it is written, “Vengeance belongs to me; I will repay, says the Lord.” (a)
20
Therefore If your enemy is hungry, feed him. If he is thirsty, give him a drink; for in doing so, you will heap coals of fire on his head.”(b)
21
Don’t be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.
