Erromatarrei 12

1 Othoitz eguiten drauçuet bada, anayeác, Iaincoaren misericordién partez, offrenda ditzaçuen çuen gorputzac sacrificio vicitan, saindutan, Iaincoaren gogaracotan, cein baita çuen cerbitzu raçoinezcoa.

Therefore I urge you, brothers, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your spiritual service.

2 Eta etzaquitzotela conforma mundu huni, baina transforma çaiteztez çuen adimenduaren arramberritzez, phoroga deçaçuençát ceric den Iaincoaren vorondate ona eta placenta eta perfectoa. (aiōn g165)

Don’t be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what is the good, well-pleasing, and perfect will of God. (aiōn g165)

3 Ecen niri eman içan çaitadan gratiáz, erraiten draucat çuen artecoetaric batbederari, ezteçan presumi iaquitera iaquin behar den baino guehiago, baina den çuhur sobrietatera: Iaincoac batbederari fedearen neurria repartitu draucan beçala.

For I say through the grace that was given me, to everyone who is amongst you, not to think of yourself more highly than you ought to think; but to think reasonably, as God has apportioned to each person a measure of faith.

4 Ecen nola gorputz batetan anhitz membro baitugu, eta membro guciéc ezpaitute operationebat bera:

For even as we have many members in one body, and all the members don’t have the same function,

5 Hala anhitz garelaric gorputzbat gara Christ baithan eta batbedera gara bata bercearen membro.

so we, who are many, are one body in Christ, and individually members of one another,

6 Eta ditugula dohain diuersac, eman içan çaicun gratiaren araura, edo prophetia, deçagun prophetiza fedearen proportionearen arauez:

having gifts differing according to the grace that was given to us: if prophecy, let’s prophesy according to the proportion of our faith;

7 Edo ministerio, garen administrationean: edo iracasten ari dena, den instructione emaile.

or service, let’s give ourselves to service; or he who teaches, to his teaching;

8 Edo exhortatzen ari denac, exhorta deçan: distribuitzen ari denac, distribui deçan simplicitatetan: presiditzen duenac daguian diligentqui: misericordia eguiten duenac, daguian alegueraqui.

or he who exhorts, to his exhorting; he who gives, let him do it with generosity; he who rules, with diligence; he who shows mercy, with cheerfulness.

9 Charitatea den fictione gabe: çareten gaitzaren gaitzetsle, vnguiari eratchequiac.

Let love be without hypocrisy. Abhor that which is evil. Cling to that which is good.

10 Anayetassunezco charitatez elkarren onhestera emanac: elkarri ohoratzera aitzincen çaitzatela.

In love of the brothers be tenderly affectionate to one another; in honour prefer one another,

11 Cerbitzu eguitera ez nagui, spirituz ardént, Iauna cerbitzatzen duçuela.

not lagging in diligence, fervent in spirit, serving the Lord,

12 Sperançaz aleguera çaretelaric, tribulationean patient, orationean perseueratzen duçuela.

rejoicing in hope, enduring in troubles, continuing steadfastly in prayer,

13 Sainduén necessitatetara communicatzen duçuela: hospitalitateari iarreiquiten çaitzatela.

contributing to the needs of the saints, and given to hospitality.

14 Benedicaitzaçue çuec persecutatzen çaituztenac: benedicaitzaçue, diot, eta ez maradica.

Bless those who persecute you; bless, and don’t curse.

15 Aleguera çaitezte aleguera diradenequin, eta nigar eguiçue nigarrez daudenequin.

Rejoice with those who rejoice. Weep with those who weep.

16 Gogo batez bata berceagana affectionatuac çaretelaric: gauça gorác affectatzen eztituçuelaric, baina beheretara accommodatzen çaretelaric. Etzaretela çuhur ceuroc baithan.

Be of the same mind one towards another. Don’t set your mind on high things, but associate with the humble. Don’t be wise in your own conceits.

17 Ezteçoçuela nehori gaitza gaitzagatic renda. Procuraitzaçue gauça honestac guiçon gucién aitzinean.

Repay no one evil for evil. Respect what is honourable in the sight of all men.

18 Eguin albadadi, çuetan den becembatean, guiçon guciequin baquea duçuen.

If it is possible, as much as it is up to you, be at peace with all men.

19 Etzaiteztela ceuroc mendeca, ene maiteác, baina leku emoçue hirari: ecen scribatua da, Niri mendequioa: nic dut rendaturen, dio Iaunac.

Don’t seek revenge yourselves, beloved, but give place to God’s wrath. For it is written, “Vengeance belongs to me; I will repay, says the Lord.”

20 Bada baldin gosse bada hire etsaya, emóc iatera: baldin egarri bada, emóc edatera: ecen hala eguiten duála suco ikatzac bere buru gainera bilduren drautzac.

Therefore “If your enemy is hungry, feed him. If he is thirsty, give him a drink; for in doing so, you will heap coals of fire on his head.”

21 Ezadila gaizquiaz garait, baina garait eçac vnguiaz gaizquia.

Don’t be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.
