Romans 12

1 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.

Ɛno nti, anuanom, esiane Onyankopɔn ahummɔbɔ nti, mehyɛ mo sɛ momfa mo ho mmɔ afɔre a ɛyɛ kronkron na ɛsɔ Onyankopɔn ani. Eyi ne nokwasɛm a ɛsɛ sɛ muso mu.

2 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)

Monnyɛ mo ho sɛ wiasefo wɔ mo abrabɔ mu, na mmom momma Onyankopɔn nsakra mo adwene wɔ mo mu, na moanya adwene foforo, na ɛnam so ama moahu Onyankopɔn apɛde, nea eye, nea ɛsɔ nʼani ne nea ewie pɛyɛ. (aiōn g165)

3 For I say through the grace that was given me, to everyone who is among 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.

Na esiane Onyankopɔn adom a ɔde ama me no nti, meka kyerɛ mo nyinaa se, monnnwene mo ho mma ɛmmoro sɛnea ɛsɛ sɛ modwene, na mmom monnwene mo ho ahobrɛase mu, na mo mu biara nnyina gyidi a Onyankopɔn de ama mo no so.

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

Sɛnea yɛn mu biara wɔ nipadua a ho akwaa yɛ bebree, na saa akwaa yi mu biara wɔ dwuma a edi no,

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

saa ara na Kristo mu no yɛn a yɛyɛ bebree no yɛ nipadua baako, na akwaa biara yɛ akwaa no nyinaa dea.

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

Yɛwɔ akyɛde ahorow sɛnea wɔde adom yɛn no. Sɛ obi akyɛde yɛ nkɔmhyɛ a, ma onnyina ne gyidi so mfa nyɛ adwuma.

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

Sɛ ɛyɛ ɔsom a, ma ɔnsom. Sɛ ɛyɛ nkyerɛkyerɛ a, ma ɔnkyerɛkyerɛ.

8 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.

Sɛ ɛsɛ sɛ yɛhyɛ afoforo nkuran a, ɛsɛ sɛ yɛyɛ saa; sɛ ɛyɛ mmoa a ɔde boa afoforo a, ma omfi koma pa mu nyɛ; sɛ ɛyɛ akwankyerɛ a, ma no mfa nsi nyɛ; sɛ ɛyɛ ayamye a, ma ɔmfa anigye nyɛ.

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

Ɛsɛ sɛ ɔdɔ yɛ nokware turodoo. Munkyi amumɔyɛ. Mommata nea eye ho.

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

Momfa onuadɔ nnodɔ mo ho mo ho. Munni afoforo ni nsen mo ho.

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

Monkɔ so nyɛ nsi, monyɛ hyew wɔ honhom mu, na momfa ahosɛpɛw nsom Awurade.

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

Munnya anidaso mu anigye, amanehunu mu boasetɔ, na momfa gyidi mmɔ mpae.

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

Mone Onyankopɔn nkurɔfo a ahia wɔn no nkyɛ nea mowɔ. Mommɔ ahɔhoyɛ ho mmɔden.

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

Munhyira wɔn a wɔtaa mo no. Munhyira wɔn, na monnnome wɔn.

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

Mo ne anigyefo ani nnye, na mo ne asufo nsu.

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

Mo ne afoforo ntena asomdwoe mu. Monnyɛ ahantan, na mmom momfa mo ho mmɔ mmɔborɔfo. Mummmu mo ho anyansafo.

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

Mommfa bɔne ntua bɔne biara so ka. Monyɛ nea ɛbɛma nnipa de nidi ama mo.

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

Sɛ ebetumi a, mo fam de, mo ne obiara ntena asomdwoe mu.

19 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.”

Monntɔ were me nnamfonom, na mmom momma Onyankopɔn abufuw ho kwan efisɛ wɔakyerɛw se, “Me na aweretɔ wɔ me, metua ka,” Awurade na ose.

20 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.”

Nanso, “Sɛ ɔkɔm de wo tamfo a, ma no aduan nni; sɛ osukɔm de no a, ma no nsu nnom. Na sɛ woyɛ saa a, woboaboa nnyansramma ano gu nʼatifi.”

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

Mommma bɔne nni mo so. Mmom, momfa papa nni bɔne so.
