nkjv Romans:12 SEEK
Seeker Overlay ON
*
I beseech you therefore ,
brethren ,
by the mercies of God ,
that you present your bodies a living sacrifice ,
holy ,
acceptable to God ,
which is your reasonable service .
*
And do not be conformed to this world ,
but be transformed by the renewing of your mind ,
that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God .
*
For I say ,
through the grace given to me ,
to everyone who is among you ,
not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think ,
but to think soberly ,
as God has dealt to each one a measure of faith .
*
For as we have many members in one body ,
but all the members do not have the same function ,
*
so we ,
being many ,
are one body in Christ ,
and individually members of one another .
*
Having then gifts differing according to the grace that is given to us ,
let us use them :
if prophecy ,
let us prophesy in proportion to our faith ;
*
or ministry ,
let us use it in our ministering ;
he who teaches ,
in teaching ;
*
he who exhorts ,
in exhortation ;
he who gives ,
with liberality ;
he who leads ,
with diligence ;
he who shows mercy ,
with cheerfulness .
*
Let love be without hypocrisy .
Abhor what is evil .
Cling to what is good .
*
Be kindly affectionate to one another with brotherly love ,
in honor giving preference to one another ;
*
not lagging in diligence ,
fervent in spirit ,
serving the Lord ;
*
rejoicing in hope ,
patient in tribulation ,
continuing steadfastly in prayer ;
*
distributing to the needs of the saints ,
given to hospitality .
*
Bless those who persecute you ;
bless and do not curse .
*
Rejoice with those who rejoice ,
and weep with those who weep .
*
Be of the same mind toward one another .
Do not set your mind on high things ,
but associate with the humble .
Do not be wise in your own opinion .
*
Repay no one evil for evil .
Have regard for good things in the sight of all men .
*
If it is possible ,
as much as depends on you ,
live peaceably with all men .
*
Beloved ,
do not avenge yourselves ,
but rather give place to wrath ;
for it is written , "
Vengeance is Mine ,
I will repay ,"
says the Lord .
*
Therefore "
If your enemy is hungry ,
feed him ;
If he is thirsty ,
give him a drink ;
For in so doing you will heap coals of fire on his head ."
*
Do not be overcome by evil ,
but overcome evil with good .
