رُوما 12

١ 1 فَأَطْلُبُ إِلَيْكُمْ أَيُّهَا ٱلْإِخْوَةُ بِرَأْفَةِ ٱللهِ أَنْ تُقَدِّمُوا أَجْسَادَكُمْ ذَبِيحَةً حَيَّةً مُقَدَّسَةً مَرْضِيَّةً عِنْدَ ٱللهِ، عِبَادَتَكُمُ ٱلْعَقْلِيَّةَ.

I call upon you, therefore, brethren, through the compassions of God, to present your bodies a sacrifice — living, sanctified, acceptable to God — your intelligent service;

٢ 2 وَلَا تُشَاكِلُوا هَذَا ٱلدَّهْرَ، بَلْ تَغَيَّرُوا عَنْ شَكْلِكُمْ بِتَجْدِيدِ أَذْهَانِكُمْ، لِتَخْتَبِرُوا مَا هِيَ إِرَادَةُ ٱللهِ: ٱلصَّالِحَةُ ٱلْمَرْضِيَّةُ ٱلْكَامِلَةُ. (aiōn g165)

and be not conformed to this age, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, for your proving what [is] the will of God — the good, and acceptable, and perfect. (aiōn g165)

٣ 3 فَإِنِّي أَقُولُ بِٱلنِّعْمَةِ ٱلْمُعْطَاةِ لِي، لِكُلِّ مَنْ هُوَ بَيْنَكُمْ: أَنْ لَا يَرْتَئِيَ فَوْقَ مَا يَنْبَغِي أَنْ يَرْتَئِيَ، بَلْ يَرْتَئِيَ إِلَى ٱلتَّعَقُّلِ، كَمَا قَسَمَ ٱللهُ لِكُلِّ وَاحِدٍ مِقْدَارًا مِنَ ٱلْإِيمَانِ.

For I say, through the grace that was given to me, to every one who is among you, not to think above what it behoveth to think; but to think so as to think wisely, as to each God did deal a measure of faith,

٤ 4 فَإِنَّهُ كَمَا فِي جَسَدٍ وَاحِدٍ لَنَا أَعْضَاءٌ كَثِيرَةٌ، وَلَكِنْ لَيْسَ جَمِيعُ ٱلْأَعْضَاءِ لَهَا عَمَلٌ وَاحِدٌ،

for as in one body we have many members, and all the members have not the same office,

٥ 5 هَكَذَا نَحْنُ ٱلْكَثِيرِينَ: جَسَدٌ وَاحِدٌ فِي ٱلْمَسِيحِ، وَأَعْضَاءٌ بَعْضًا لِبَعْضٍ، كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ لِلْآخَرِ.

so we, the many, one body are in Christ, and members each one of one another.

٦ 6 وَلَكِنْ لَنَا مَوَاهِبُ مُخْتَلِفَةٌ بِحَسَبِ ٱلنِّعْمَةِ ٱلْمُعْطَاةِ لَنَا: أَنُبُوَّةٌ فَبِٱلنِّسْبَةِ إِلَى ٱلْإِيمَانِ،

And having gifts, different according to the grace that was given to us; whether prophecy — 'According to the proportion of faith!'

٧ 7 أَمْ خِدْمَةٌ فَفِي ٱلْخِدْمَةِ، أَمِ ٱلْمُعَلِّمُ فَفِي ٱلتَّعْلِيمِ،

or ministration — 'In the ministration!' or he who is teaching — 'In the teaching!'

٨ 8 أَمِ ٱلْوَاعِظُ فَفِي ٱلْوَعْظِ، ٱلْمُعْطِي فَبِسَخَاءٍ، ٱلْمُدَبِّرُ فَبِٱجْتِهَادٍ، ٱلرَّاحِمُ فَبِسُرُورٍ.

or he who is exhorting — 'In the exhortation!' he who is sharing — 'In simplicity!' he who is leading — 'In diligence?' he who is doing kindness — 'In cheerfulness.'

٩ 9 اَلْمَحَبَّةُ فَلْتَكُنْ بِلَا رِيَاءٍ. كُونُوا كَارِهِينَ ٱلشَّرَّ، مُلْتَصِقِينَ بِٱلْخَيْرِ.

The love unfeigned: abhorring the evil; cleaving to the good;

١٠ 10 وَادِّينَ بَعْضُكُمْ بَعْضًا بِٱلْمَحَبَّةِ ٱلْأَخَوِيَّةِ، مُقَدِّمِينَ بَعْضُكُمْ بَعْضًا فِي ٱلْكَرَامَةِ.

in the love of brethren, to one another kindly affectioned: in the honour going before one another;

١١ 11 غَيْرَ مُتَكَاسِلِينَ فِي ٱلِٱجْتِهَادِ، حَارِّينَ فِي ٱلرُّوحِ، عَابِدِينَ ٱلرَّبَّ،

in the diligence not slothful; in the spirit fervent; the Lord serving;

١٢ 12 فَرِحِينَ فِي ٱلرَّجَاءِ، صَابِرِينَ فِي ٱلضِّيْقِ، مُواظِبِينَ عَلَى ٱلصَّلَاةِ،

in the hope rejoicing; in the tribulation enduring; in the prayer persevering;

١٣ 13 مُشْتَرِكِينَ فِي ٱحْتِيَاجَاتِ ٱلْقِدِّيسِينَ، عَاكِفِينَ عَلَى إِضَافَةِ ٱلْغُرَبَاءِ.

to the necessities of the saints communicating; the hospitality pursuing.

١٤ 14 بَارِكُوا عَلَى ٱلَّذِينَ يَضْطَهِدُونَكُمْ. بَارِكُوا وَلَا تَلْعَنُوا.

Bless those persecuting you; bless, and curse not;

١٥ 15 فَرَحًا مَعَ ٱلْفَرِحِينَ وَبُكَاءً مَعَ ٱلْبَاكِينَ.

to rejoice with the rejoicing, and to weep with the weeping,

١٦ 16 مُهْتَمِّينَ بَعْضُكُمْ لِبَعْضٍ ٱهْتِمَامًا وَاحِدًا، غَيْرَ مُهْتَمِّينَ بِٱلْأُمُورِ ٱلْعَالِيَةِ بَلْ مُنْقَادِينَ إِلَى ٱلْمُتَّضِعِينَ. لَا تَكُونُوا حُكَمَاءَ عِنْدَ أَنْفُسِكُمْ.

of the same mind one toward another, not minding the high things, but with the lowly going along; become not wise in your own conceit;

١٧ 17 لَا تُجَازُوا أَحَدًا عَنْ شَرٍّ بِشَرٍّ. مُعْتَنِينَ بِأُمُورٍ حَسَنَةٍ قُدَّامَ جَمِيعِ ٱلنَّاسِ.

giving back to no one evil for evil; providing right things before all men.

١٨ 18 إِنْ كَانَ مُمْكِنًا فَحَسَبَ طَاقَتِكُمْ سَالِمُوا جَمِيعَ ٱلنَّاسِ.

If possible — so far as in you — with all men being in peace;

١٩ 19 لَا تَنْتَقِمُوا لِأَنْفُسِكُمْ أَيُّهَا ٱلْأَحِبَّاءُ، بَلْ أَعْطُوا مَكَانًا لِلْغَضَبِ، لِأَنَّهُ مَكْتُوبٌ: «لِيَ ٱلنَّقْمَةُ أَنَا أُجَازِي، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ».

not avenging yourselves, beloved, but give place to the wrath, for it hath been written, 'Vengeance [is] Mine,

٢٠ 20 «فَإِنْ جَاعَ عَدُوُّكَ فَأَطْعِمْهُ. وَإِنْ عَطِشَ فَٱسْقِهِ. لِأَنَّكَ إِنْ فَعَلْتَ هَذَا تَجْمَعْ جَمْرَ نَارٍ عَلَى رَأْسِهِ».

I will recompense again, saith the Lord;' if, then, thine enemy doth hunger, feed him; if he doth thirst, give him drink; for this doing, coals of fire thou shalt heap upon his head;

٢١ 21 لَا يَغْلِبَنَّكَ ٱلشَّرُّ بَلِ ٱغْلِبِ ٱلشَّرَّ بِٱلْخَيْرِ.

Be not overcome by the evil, but overcome, in the good, the evil.
