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. Cross refs
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. Cross refs
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. Cross refs
4 For as we have many members in one body, and all members have not the same office: Cross refs
5 So we, being many, are one body in Christ, and every one members one of another. Cross refs
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; Cross refs
7 Or ministry, let us wait on our ministering: or he that teacheth, on teaching; Cross refs
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. Cross refs
9 Let love be without dissimulation. Abhor that which is evil; cleave to that which is good. Cross refs
10 Be kindly affectioned one to another with brotherly love; in honour preferring one another; Cross refs
11 Not slothful in business; fervent in spirit; serving the Lord; Cross refs
12 Rejoicing in hope; patient in tribulation; continuing instant in prayer; Cross refs
13 Distributing to the necessity of saints; given to hospitality. Cross refs
14 Bless them which persecute you: bless, and curse not. Cross refs
15 Rejoice with them that do rejoice, and weep with them that weep. Cross refs
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. Cross refs
17 Recompense to no man evil for evil. Provide things honest in the sight of all men. Cross refs
18 If it be possible, as much as lieth in you, live peaceably with all men. Cross refs
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. Cross refs
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. Cross refs
21 Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good. Cross refs
