羅馬書 12
獻上自己當作活祭
1 所以弟兄們，我憑著 神的仁慈勸你們，要把身體獻上，作聖潔而蒙 神悅納的活祭；這是你們理所當然的事奉。
2 不要模仿這個世代，倒要藉著心意的更新而改變過來，使你們可以察驗出甚麼是 神的旨意，就是察驗出甚麼是美好的、蒙他悅納的和完全的事。
信徒行事為人的準則
3 我憑著所賜給我的恩典，對你們各人說，不可自視太高，高於所當看的，反而應該照著 神分給各人信心的大小，看得適中。4 就像一個身體有許多肢體，各肢體都有不同的功用；5 照樣，我們大家在基督裡成為一個身體，也是互相作肢體。6 照著所賜給我們的恩典，我們各有不同的恩賜：說預言的，就應當照著信心的程度去說；7 服事人的，就應當照著恩賜去服事；教導的，就應當照著恩賜教導；
8 勸慰的，就應當照著恩賜勸慰；把財物分給人的要真誠；領導的要殷勤；行善的要樂意。
9 愛，不可虛偽；惡，要厭惡；善，要持守。10 要以手足之愛彼此相親，用恭敬的心互相禮讓。11 殷勤不可懶惰，心靈要火熱，常常服事主；12 在盼望中要喜樂，在患難中要堅忍，禱告要恆切。13 聖徒有缺乏的，就要接濟；客旅要熱誠地款待。14 迫害你們的，要為他們祝福；只可祝福，不可咒詛。15 要與喜樂的人一同喜樂，與哀哭的人一同哀哭。16 要彼此同心，不可心高氣傲，倒要俯就卑微的。不可自以為聰明。17 不可以惡報惡。大家以為美的事，要努力去作。18 可能的話，總要盡你們的所能與人和睦。19 親愛的啊，不要為自己伸冤，寧可等候主的忿怒，因為經上記著，主說：“伸冤在我，我必報應。”20 相反地，“如果你的仇敵餓了，就給他吃；如果渴了，就給他喝。因為你這樣作，就是把炭火堆在他的頭上。”
21 不可被惡所勝，反要以善勝惡。
Romans 12
Consecration of the Believer’s Life
1 Therefore I exhort you, brothers and sisters,t by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a sacrifice – alive, holy, and pleasing to Godts – which is your reasonable service.
2 Do not be conformedt to this present world,t but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may test and approves what is the will of God – what is good and well-pleasing and perfect.
Conduct in Humility
3 For by the grace given to me I say to every one of you not to think more highly of yourself than you ought to think, but to think with sober discernment, as God has distributed to each of yout a measure of faith.t4 For just as in one body we have many members, and not all the members serve the same function,5 so we who are many are one body in Christ, and individually we are members who belong to one another.6 And we have different giftst according to the grace given to us. If the gift is prophecy, that individual must use it in proportion to his faith.7 If it is service, he must serve; if it is teaching, he must teach;
8 if it is exhortation, he must exhort; if it is contributing, he must do so with sincerity; if it is leadership, he must do so with diligence; if it is showing mercy, he must do so with cheerfulness.
Conduct in Love
9 Love must bet without hypocrisy. Abhor what is evil, cling to what is good.10 Be devoted to one another with mutual love, showing eagerness in honoring one another.11 Do not lag in zeal, be enthusiastic in spirit, serve the Lord.12 Rejoice in hope, endure in suffering, persist in prayer.13 Contribute to the needs of the saints, pursue hospitality.14 Bless those who persecute you, bless and do not curse.15 Rejoice with those who rejoice, weep with those who weep.16 Live in harmony with one another; do not be haughty but associate with the lowly.t Do not be conceited.t17 Do not repay anyone evil for evil; consider what is good before all people.t18 If possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all people.t19 Do not avenge yourselves, dear friends, but give place to God’s wrath,t for it is written, “Vengeance is mine, I will repay,”s says the Lord.20 Rather, if your enemy is hungry, feed him; if he is thirsty, give him a drink; for in doing this you will be heaping burning coals on his head.s
21 Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.
