Romans 12:1-10

WYC

NIV

1 Therefore, brethren, I beseech you by the mercy of God, that ye give your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, pleasing to God, and your service reasonable.
1 Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God—this is your true and proper worship.
2 And do not ye be conformed to this world, but be ye reformed in newness of your wit, that ye prove which is the will of God, good, and well pleasing, and perfect.
2 Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will.
3 For I say, by the grace that is given to me, to all that be among you, that ye understand not more than it behooveth to understand, but for to understand to soberness [to not savour, or know, more than it behooveth to know, but to know to soberness]; and to each man, as God hath parted the measure of faith.
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 rather think of yourself with sober judgment, in accordance with the faith God has distributed to each of you.
4 For as in one body we have many members, but all the members have not the same deed [soothly all the members have not the same act, or deed];
4 For just as each of us has one body with many members, and these members do not all have the same function,
5 so we many be one body in Christ [so we be many, one body in Christ], and each be members one of another.
5 so in Christ we, though many, form one body, and each member belongs to all the others.
6 Therefore we that have gifts diversing [Therefore having gifts diversing], after the grace that is given to us, either prophecy, after the reason of faith;
6 We have different gifts, according to the grace given to each of us. If your gift is prophesying, then prophesy in accordance with your faith;
7 either service, in ministering; either he that teacheth, in teaching; [either ministry, or service, in ministering; or he that teacheth, in teaching;]
7 if it is serving, then serve; if it is teaching, then teach;
8 he that stirreth softly, in admonishing [he that stirreth softly, in exhortation, or admonishing]; he that giveth, in simpleness; he that is sovereign [+he that is prelate, or sovereign/he that is before], in busyness; he that hath mercy, in gladness.
8 if it is to encourage, then give encouragement; if it is giving, then give generously; if it is to lead, do it diligently; if it is to show mercy, do it cheerfully.
9 Love without feigning, hating evil, drawing to good [cleaving, or fast drawing, to good thing];
9 Love must be sincere. Hate what is evil; cling to what is good.
10 loving together the charity of brotherhood. Each come before to worship (the) other [Coming before together in honour];
10 Be devoted to one another in love. Honor one another above yourselves.
