Romans 12:1--13:14

12:1

I beseech
<3870> (5719)

you
<5209>

therefore
<3767>_,

brethren
<80>_,

by
<1223>

the mercies
<3628>

of God
<2316>_,

that ye present
<3936> (5658)

your
<5216>

bodies
<4983>

a living
<2198> (5723)

sacrifice
<2378>_,

holy
<40>_,

acceptable
<2101>

unto God
<2316>_,

[which is] your
<5216>

reasonable
<3050>

service
<2999>_.

12:2

And
<2532>

be
<4964> (0)

not
<3361>

conformed
<4964> (5728)

to this
<5129>

world
<165>_:

but
<235>

be ye transformed
<3339> (5744)

by the renewing
<342>

of your
<5216>

mind
<3563>_,

that
<1519>

ye
<5209>

may prove
<1381> (5721)

what
<5101>

[is] that good
<18>_,

and
<2532>

acceptable
<2101>_,

and
<2532>

perfect
<5046>_,

will
<2307>

of God
<2316>_.

12:3

For
<1063>

I say
<3004> (5719)_,

through
<1223>

the grace
<5485>

given
<1325> (5685)

unto me
<3427>_,

to every man
<3956>

that is
<5607> (5752)

among
<1722>

you
<5213>_,

not
<3361>

to think [of himself] more
<3844>

highly
<5252> (5721)

than
<3739>

he ought
<1163> (5748)

to think
<5426> (5721)_;

but
<235>

to think
<5426> (5721)

soberly
<1519> <4993> (5721)_,

according as
<5613>

God
<2316>

hath dealt
<3307> (5656)

to every man
<1538>

the measure
<3358>

of faith
<4102>_.

{soberly: Gr. to sobriety}

12:4

For
<1063>

as
<2509>

we have
<2192> (5719)

many
<4183>

members
<3196>

in
<1722>

one
<1520>

body
<4983>_,

and
<1161>

all
<3956>

members
<3196>

have
<2192> (5719)

not
<3756>

the same
<846>

office
<4234>_:

12:5

So
<3779>

we
<2070> (0)_,

[being] many
<4183>_,

are
<2070> (5748)

one
<1520>

body
<4983>

in
<1722>

Christ
<5547>_,

and
<1161>

every
<2596>

one
<1520>

members
<3196>

one of another
<240>_.

12:6

Having
<2192> (5723)

then
<1161>

gifts
<5486>

differing
<1313>

according
<2596>

to the grace
<5485>

that is given
<1325> (5685)

to us
<2254>_,

whether
<1535>

prophecy
<4394>_,

[let us prophesy] according
<2596>

to the proportion
<356>

of faith
<4102>_;

12:7

Or
<1535>

ministry
<1248>_,

[let us wait] on
<1722>

[our] ministering
<1248>_:

or
<1535>

he that teacheth
<1321> (5723)_,

on
<1722>

teaching
<1319>_;

12:8

Or
<1535>

he that exhorteth
<3870> (5723)_,

on
<1722>

exhortation
<3874>_:

he that giveth
<3330> (5723)_,

[let him do it] with
<1722>

simplicity
<572>_;

he that ruleth
<4291> (5734)_,

with
<1722>

diligence
<4710>_;

he that sheweth mercy
<1653> (5723)_,

with
<1722>

cheerfulness
<2432>_.

{giveth: or, imparteth} {with simplicity: or, liberally}

12:9

[Let] love
<26>

be without dissimulation
<505>_.

Abhor
<655> (5723)

that which is evil
<4190>_;

cleave
<2853> (5746)

to that which is good
<18>_.

12:10

[Be] kindly affectioned
<5387>

one to another
<1519> <240>

with brotherly love
<5360>_;

in honour
<5092>

preferring
<4285> (5740)

one another
<240>_;

{with...: or, in the love of the brethren}

12:11

Not
<3361>

slothful
<3636>

in business
<4710>_;

fervent
<2204> (5723)

in spirit
<4151>_;

serving
<1398> (5723)

the Lord
<2962>_;

12:12

Rejoicing
<5463> (5723)

in hope
<1680>_;

patient
<5278> (5723)

in tribulation
<2347>_;

continuing instant
<4342> (5723)

in prayer
<4335>_;

12:13

Distributing
<2841> (5723)

to the necessity
<5532>

of saints
<40>_;

given
<1377> (5723)

to hospitality
<5381>_.

12:14

Bless
<2127> (5720)

them which persecute
<1377> (5723)

you
<5209>_:

bless
<2127> (5720)_,

and
<2532>

curse
<2672> (5737)

not
<3361>_.

12:15

Rejoice
<5463> (5721)

with
<3326>

them that do rejoice
<5463> (5723)_,

and
<2532>

weep
<2799> (5721)

with
<3326>

them that weep
<2799> (5723)_.

12:16

[Be] of the same
<846>

mind
<5426> (5723)

one toward another
<1519> <240>_.

Mind
<5426> (5723)

not
<3361>

high things
<5308>_,

but
<235>

condescend
<4879> (5734)

to men of low estate
<5011>_.

Be
<1096> (5737)

not
<3361>

wise
<5429>

in
<3844>

your own conceits
<1438>_.

{condescend...: or, be contented with mean things}

12:17

Recompense
<591> (5723)

to no man
<3367>

evil
<2556>

for
<473>

evil
<2556>_.

Provide
<4306> (5734)

things honest
<2570>

in the sight
<1799>

of all
<3956>

men
<444>_.

12:18

If
<1487>

it be possible
<1415>_,

as much as lieth in
<1537>

you
<5216>_,

live peaceably
<1514> (5723)

with
<3326>

all
<3956>

men
<444>_.

12:19

Dearly beloved
<27>_,

avenge
<1556> (5723)

not
<3361>

yourselves
<1438>_,

but
<235>

[rather] give
<1325> (5628)

place
<5117>

unto wrath
<3709>_:

for
<1063>

it is written
<1125> (5769)_,

Vengeance
<1557>

[is] mine
<1698>_;

I
<1473>

will repay
<467> (5692)_,

saith
<3004> (5719)

the Lord
<2962>_.

12:20

Therefore
<3767>

if
<1437>

thine
<4675>

enemy
<2190>

hunger
<3983> (5725)_,

feed
<5595> (5720)

him
<846>_;

if
<1437>

he thirst
<1372> (5725)_,

give
<4222> (0)

him
<846>

drink
<4222> (5720)_:

for
<1063>

in so
<5124>

doing
<4160> (5723)

thou shalt heap
<4987> (5692)

coals
<440>

of fire
<4442>

on
<1909>

his
<846>

head
<2776>_.

12:21

Be
<3528> (0)

not
<3361>

overcome
<3528> (5744)

of
<5259>

evil
<2556>_,

but
<235>

overcome
<3528> (5720)

evil
<2556>

with
<1722>

good
<18>_.

13:1

Let every
<3956>

soul
<5590>

be subject
<5293> (5732)

unto the higher
<5242> (5723)

powers
<1849>_.

For
<1063>

there is
<2076> (5748)

no
<3756>

power
<1849>

but
<1508>

of
<575>

God
<2316>_:

<1161>

the powers
<1849>

that be
<5607> (5752)

are
<1526> (5748)

ordained
<5021> (5772)

of
<5259>

God
<2316>_.

{ordained: or, ordered}

13:2

Whosoever therefore
<5620>

resisteth
<498> (5734)

the power
<1849>_,

resisteth
<436> (5758)

the ordinance
<1296>

of God
<2316>_:

and
<1161>

they that resist
<436> (5761)

shall receive
<2983> (5695)

to themselves
<1438>

damnation
<2917>_.

13:3

For
<1063>

rulers
<758>

are
<1526> (5748)

not
<3756>

a terror
<5401>

to good
<18>

works
<2041>_,

but
<235>

to the evil
<2556>_.

Wilt thou
<2309> (5719)

then
<1161>

not
<3361>

be afraid
<5399> (5738)

of the power
<1849>_?

do
<4160> (5720)

that which is good
<18>_,

and
<2532>

thou shalt have
<2192> (5692)

praise
<1868>

of
<1537>

the same
<846>_:

13:4

For
<1063>

he is
<2076> (5748)

the minister
<1249>

of God
<2316>

to thee
<4671>

for
<1519>

good
<18>_.

But
<1161>

if
<1437>

thou do
<4160> (5725)

that which is evil
<2556>_,

be afraid
<5399> (5732) (5737)_;

for
<1063>

he beareth
<5409> (5719)

not
<3756>

the sword
<3162>

in vain
<1500>_:

for
<1063>

he is
<2076> (5748)

the minister
<1249>

of God
<2316>_,

a revenger
<1558>

to [execute] wrath
<3709>

upon
<1519>

him that doeth
<4238> (5723)

evil
<2556>_.

13:5

Wherefore
<1352>

[ye] must needs
<318>

be subject
<5293> (5733)_,

not
<3756>

only
<3440>

for
<1223>

wrath
<3709>_,

but
<235>

also
<2532>

for conscience
<4893>

sake
<1223>_.

13:6

For
<1063>

for
<1223> (0)

this
<5124>

cause
<1223>

pay ye
<5055> (5719)

tribute
<5411>

also
<2532>_:

for
<1063>

they are
<1526> (5748)

God's
<2316>

ministers
<3011>_,

attending continually
<4342> (5723)

upon
<1519>

this
<5124>

very thing
<846>_.

13:7

Render
<591> (5628)

therefore
<3767>

to all
<3956>

their dues
<3782>_:

tribute
<5411>

to whom
<3588>

tribute
<5411>

[is due]; custom
<5056>

to whom
<3588>

custom
<5056>_;

fear
<5401>

to whom
<3588>

fear
<5401>_;

honour
<5092>

to whom
<3588>

honour
<5092>_.

13:8

Owe
<3784> (5720)

no man
<3367>

any thing
<3367>_,

but
<1508>

to love
<25> (5721)

one another
<240>_:

for
<1063>

he that loveth
<25> (5723)

another
<2087>

hath fulfilled
<4137> (5758)

the law
<3551>_.

13:9

For
<1063>

this, Thou shalt
<3431> (0)

not
<3756>

commit adultery
<3431> (5692)_,

Thou shalt
<5407> (0)

not
<3756>

kill
<5407> (5692)_,

Thou shalt
<2813> (0)

not
<3756>

steal
<2813> (5692)_,

Thou shalt
<5576> (0)

not
<3756>

bear false witness
<5576> (5692)_,

Thou shalt
<1937> (0)

not
<3756>

covet
<1937> (5692)_;

and
<2532>

if [there be] any
<1536>

other
<2087>

commandment
<1785>_,

it is briefly comprehended
<346> (5743)

in
<1722>

this
<5129>

saying
<3056>_,

namely
<1722>_,

Thou shalt love
<25> (5692)

thy
<4675>

neighbour
<4139>

as
<5613>

thyself
<1438>_.

13:10

Love
<26>

worketh
<2038> (5736)

no
<3756>

ill
<2556>

to his neighbour
<4139>_:

therefore
<3767>

love
<26>

[is] the fulfilling
<4138>

of the law
<3551>_.

13:11

And
<2532>

that
<5124>_,

knowing
<1492> (5761)

the time
<2540>_,

that
<3754>

now
<2235>

[it is] high time
<5610>

to awake
<2248> <1453> (5683)

out of
<1537>

sleep
<5258>_:

for
<1063>

now
<3568>

[is] our
<2257>

salvation
<4991>

nearer
<1452>

than
<2228>

when
<3753>

we believed
<4100> (5656)_.

13:12

The night
<3571>

is far spent
<4298> (5656)_,

<1161>

the day
<2250>

is at hand
<1448> (5758)_:

let us
<659> (0)

therefore
<3767>

cast off
<659> (5643)

the works
<2041>

of darkness
<4655>_,

and
<2532>

let us put on
<1746> (5672)

the armour
<3696>

of light
<5457>_.

13:13

Let us walk
<4043> (5661)

honestly
<2156>_,

as
<5613>

in
<1722>

the day
<2250>_;

not
<3361>

in rioting
<2970>

and
<2532>

drunkenness
<3178>_,

not
<3361>

in chambering
<2845>

and
<2532>

wantonness
<766>_,

not
<3361>

in strife
<2054>

and
<2532>

envying
<2205>_.

{honestly: or, decently}

13:14

But
<235>

put ye on
<1746> (5669)

the Lord
<2962>

Jesus
<2424>

Christ
<5547>_,

and
<2532>

make
<4160> (5732)

not
<3361>

provision
<4307>

for
<1519>

the flesh
<4561>_,

to [fulfil] the lusts
<1939>

[thereof].
