Romans 12

1 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;

Eya ta nɔvinyewo, le Mawu ƒe nublanuikpɔkpɔ sɔgbɔ la ta, mele ŋusẽ dom mi be miatsɔ miaƒe ŋutilãwo awɔ vɔsa gbagbe si le kɔkɔe, eye wòdzea Mawu ŋu, wòanye miaƒe subɔsubɔ gbɔgbɔmetɔ.

2 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)

Migazɔ ɖe xexe sia me ƒe nuɖoanyiwo nu o, ke boŋ mitrɔ to miaƒe tamesusuwo ƒe yeyewɔwɔ me, ekema miate ŋu anya, eye miakpɔ kakaɖedzi le nu si Mawu ƒe lɔlɔ̃nu nye la ŋu; eƒe lɔlɔ̃nu si nyo, eye wòdze hede blibo la. (aiōn g165)

3 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,

Le Mawu ƒe amenuveve ƒe nunana si wònam nu la, mele egblɔm na mia dometɔ ɖe sia ɖe be: migabu mia ɖokuiwo amegãwoe wu ale si dze o, ke boŋ mibu mia ɖokuiwo ɖokuibɔbɔlawoe le xɔse ƒe dzidzenu si Mawu na mi la nu.

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

Abe ale si ŋutinu geɖewo le miaƒe ŋutilãwo ŋu, eye ŋutinu siawo katã mewɔa dɔ ɖeka o ene la,

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

nenema ke wole Kristo hã ƒe ŋutilã ŋui, eye ŋutinu siawo nye wo nɔewo tɔ, ame sia ame hiã nɔvia.

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

Mawu na amenuveve ƒe nunana mía dometɔ ɖe sia ɖe be wòawɔ nu tɔxɛ aɖe nyuie. Eya ta ne Mawu na nunana wò be nàgblɔ nya ɖi la, ekema ele na wò be nàgblɔ nya ɖi ɣe sia ɣi si nàte ŋui kple zi geɖe ale si wò xɔse asẽ ŋu, ale be nàte ŋu axɔ nya tso Mawu gbɔ.

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

Ne wò nunanae nye be nàsubɔ ame bubuwo la, ekema nàsubɔ wo nyuie. Ne ènye nufiala la, nàfia nu nyuie.

8 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.'

Ne ènye mawunyagblɔla la, ekema ele be nàkpɔ egbɔ be ŋusẽ le yeƒe mawunya ŋu, eye wòkpena ɖe amewo ŋu. Ne Mawu na hotsui wò la, tsɔe nyo dɔ me, eye nàkpe ɖe ame bubuwo ŋu. Ne Mawu na dzikpɔkpɔ ƒe nunana wò, eye wòna be nàkpɔ ame bubuwo ƒe dɔwo dzi la, ele na wò be nàlé fɔ ɖe wò dɔdeasi sia ŋu vevie. Ele na ame siwo faa akɔ na konyifalawo la be woatsɔ kristotɔwo ƒe dzidzɔ awɔe.

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

Migalɔ̃ mia nɔewo le ŋkume ko o, ke boŋ milɔ̃ wo tso dzi vavã me ke. Milé fu nu vɔ̃. Mide nu nyui dzi.

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

Mitsɔ dadaviwo ƒe lɔlɔ̃ lɔ̃ mia nɔewo, eye mide bubu mia nɔewo ŋu wu miawo ŋutɔ mia ɖokuiwo.

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

Migagbɔdzɔ le vevidodo nu me o, ke boŋ mixɔ dzo le gbɔgbɔ me, eye misubɔ Aƒetɔ la kple dzi blibo.

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

Mikpɔ dzidzɔ le ɖoɖo siwo katã Mawu le wɔwɔm ɖe mia ŋu la ŋuti. Mido dzi le xaxawo me, eye mianɔ gbedodoɖa dzi ɣe sia ɣi.

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

Ne ame kɔkɔewo ge ɖe hiã me la, miɖe wo tso eme. Mikpe amewo va miaƒe aƒewo me enuenu ne woaɖu nu kpli mi; ne dzeƒe hiã wo la, mina wo.

14 Bless those persecuting you; bless, and curse not;

Ne ame aɖe wɔ nu masɔmasɔ aɖe ɖe ŋuwò le wò kristotɔnyenye ta la, mègaƒo fi dee o; do gbe ɖa ɖe eta, eye nàyrae.

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

Mikpɔ dzidzɔ kple ame siwo le dzidzɔ kpɔm la; mifa konyi kple ame siwo le konyi fam la.

16 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;

Miwɔ dɔ kple mia nɔewo dzidzɔtɔe. Migado mia ɖokuiwo ɖe dzi glodzoo o. Migadze agbagba be yewoadze amegãwo ŋu o, ke boŋ mide ha kple ame gblɔewo. Migabu be yewonya nu sia nu o.

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

Migaɖo vɔ̃ vɔ̃ teƒe o. Miwɔ nyui, ale be ame sia ame nate ŋu akpɔe be mienye nyateƒetɔwo le goawo katã me.

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

Migawɔ dzre kple ame aɖeke o, ke boŋ minɔ anyi kple ame sia ame le ŋutifafa me abe ale si miate ŋui ene.

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

Xɔ̃nye lɔlɔ̃awo, migabia hlɔ̃ na mia ɖokuiwo o. Migblẽ hlɔ̃biabia ɖe Mawu ƒe asi me, elabena eya ŋutɔe gblɔ be yeabia hlɔ̃ ame siwo dze na hlɔ̃biabia la.

20 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;

Le hlɔ̃biabia teƒe la, ne dɔ le wò futɔ wum la, na nuɖuɖui. Ne tsikɔ le ewum la, na tsii wòano. Ekema àna ŋu nakpee le nu si wòwɔ ɖe ŋuwò la ta.

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

Mègana nu vɔ̃ naɖu dziwò o, ke boŋ tsɔ nu nyui wɔwɔ ɖu nu vɔ̃ dzii.
