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.

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.

So we, being many, are one body in Christ, and every one members one of another.

Or ministry, let us wait on our ministering: or he that teacheth, on teaching;

Let love be without dissimulation. Abhor that which is evil; cleave to that which is good.

Not slothful in business; fervent in spirit; serving the Lord;

Distributing to the necessity of saints; given to hospitality.

Rejoice with them that do rejoice, and weep with them that weep.

Recompense to no man evil for evil. Provide things honest in the sight of all men.

Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give place unto wrath: for it is written, Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord.

Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good.
