罗马书 12:1-15:13
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Simplified)
为事奉上帝而活
12 所以，弟兄姊妹，我凭上帝的怜悯劝你们献上自己的身体，作圣洁、蒙上帝悦纳的活祭。你们理当这样事奉。 2 你们不可追随世界的潮流，要随着思想的不断更新而改变，这样就能明辨上帝的旨意，知道什么是良善、纯全、蒙祂悦纳的。
3 我凭上帝赐给我的恩典劝告各位，不要自视过高，要照着上帝赐给各人的信心中肯地看待自己。 4 就像我们身体的各部分有不同的功能， 5 我们众人在基督里组成一个身体，彼此联结，息息相关。 6 我们照所得的恩典各有不同的恩赐。说预言的，要按着信心的程度说预言； 7 服侍的，要忠心服侍；教导的，要专一教导； 8 劝勉的，要诚心劝勉；施舍的，要慷慨施舍；治理的，要殷勤治理；怜悯的，要甘心怜悯。
相爱相顾
9 不可虚情假意地爱人。要疾恶如仇，一心向善。 10 要彼此相爱如同手足，互相尊重，彼此谦让。 11 要殷勤，不可懒惰，要常常火热地事奉主。 12 盼望中要有喜乐，患难中要坚忍，祷告要恒切。 13 信徒有缺乏，要慷慨帮助；客人来访，要热诚款待。 14 迫害你们的，要为他们祝福；要祝福，不可咒诅。 15 要与喜乐的人同乐，与哀哭的人同哭。 16 要彼此和睦，不可心高气傲，反要俯就卑微的人，不可自以为聪明。
17 不要以恶报恶。要尊重别人，众人都认为好的事，应该竭力去做。 18 如果可能，总要尽力与人和睦相处。 19 亲爱的弟兄姊妹，不要私自报复，要让上帝来审判，因为圣经上说：
“主说，‘申冤在我，我必报应。’”
20 所以，
“你的仇敌若饿了，就给他吃的；
若渴了，就给他喝的；
你这样做是把炭火堆在他头上。”
21 你不可被恶所胜，反要以善胜恶。
服从政府的权柄
13 人人都要服从政府的权柄，因为所有的权柄都是出于上帝。现存的政权都是上帝设立的。 2 所以，抗拒权柄，就是抗拒上帝的命令，抗拒的人必自招惩罚。 3 掌权者不是叫行善的惧怕，而是叫作恶的惧怕。你想不怕掌权的吗？就要行得正，这样你会得到称赞。 4 要知道掌权者是上帝差遣的，对行得正的人有益处。然而，你若作恶，就该惧怕，因为他必将你绳之以法[a]。他是上帝的仆人，代表上帝秉公行义，惩奸罚恶。 5 所以，你们必须服从，不单是为了避免受到惩罚，也是为了良心无愧。
6 你们纳税也是为了同样的缘故，因为官长是上帝的仆人，负责管理这类事务。 7 凡是别人该得的，都要给他。该得米粮的，就纳粮给他；该得税款的，就缴税给他；该惧怕的，就惧怕他；该尊敬的，就尊敬他。
爱邻如己
8 凡事都不可亏欠人，但在彼此相爱方面要常常觉得做得不够。一个人爱别人，就成全了律法。 9 因为“不可通奸、不可杀人、不可偷窃、不可贪婪”以及其他诫命，都可以总结成一句话——“爱邻如己”。 10 人若有爱心，就不会作恶害人，所以爱成全了律法。
11 还有，要知道现今是你们该醒过来的时候了！因为与初信的时候相比，我们得救的日子更近了。 12 黑夜已深，天将破晓，我们要除掉黑暗的行为，穿上光明的盔甲[b]。 13 我们要为人端正，光明磊落，不可荒宴醉酒、好色邪荡、嫉妒纷争。 14 你们要活出主耶稣基督的荣美[c]，不要只顾放纵罪恶本性的私欲。
体恤弱者
14 你们要接纳信心软弱的弟兄姊妹，不要因为看法不同便彼此批评。 2 有人相信什么都可以吃，但信心软弱的人只吃素菜。 3 吃的人不可轻看不吃的人，不吃的人也不可批评吃的人，因为两者都蒙上帝接纳。 4 你是谁，竟然批评别人的仆人？他做得是否合宜，自然有他的主人负责。他必能做得合宜，因为主能使他做得合宜。
5 有人认为这日比那日好，有人认为天天都一样，各人应该照着自己的信念拿定主意。 6 守日子的人是为主而守，吃的人是为主而吃，因为他感谢上帝；不吃的人是为主不吃，他也同样感谢上帝。 7 因为我们没有人为自己活，也没有人为自己死。 8 我们活是为主而活，死是为主而死。因此，我们无论生死都是属主的人。 9 正是为这个缘故，基督死了，又复活了，好做死人和活人的主。
10 那么，你为什么论断弟兄姊妹呢？为什么轻视弟兄姊妹呢？将来我们都要一同站在上帝的审判台前。 11 圣经上说：“主说，‘我凭我的永恒起誓，万膝必向我跪拜，万口必称颂上帝。’” 12 这样看来，我们各人都要在上帝面前陈明自己一切的事。
不要使人犯罪
13 所以，我们不可再互相论断，要留心自己的言行，不要绊倒弟兄姊妹。 14 我知道并靠着主耶稣深信，没有什么是不洁净的，但若有人以为某物不洁净，那物对他来说就不洁净。 15 如果你吃的东西令弟兄姊妹不安，你就不是凭爱心行事。你不可因为一点食物而损害基督舍命救赎的人。 16 所以，不要让你们认为好的事被别人诟病。 17 因为上帝的国不是关乎吃什么喝什么，而是关乎公义、平安和圣灵所赐的喜乐。 18 以这样的态度事奉基督的人才会得到上帝的喜悦和大家的称赞。
19 所以，我们要努力追求和睦，彼此造就。 20 不可因食物的问题而破坏上帝的工作。所有的食物固然都是洁净的，但人若因所吃的食物绊倒别人，就有罪了。 21 无论是吃肉、喝酒还是做任何别的事，如果会绊倒别人，就应该一概不做。 22 你有信心认为可以做的，只要你和上帝知道就可以了。人如果在自己认为可以做的事上问心无愧，就有福了。 23 人如果心里疑惑，却仍然吃，就有罪了，因为他不是凭信心吃。凡不凭信心去做的，就是犯罪。
我为人人
15 我们坚强的人要扶助软弱的人，分担他们的重担，不该只顾自己的喜好。 2 我们每个人都应该为他人着想，建造他人的生命。 3 因为基督并没有专顾自己，正如圣经上说：“辱骂你之人的辱骂都落在我身上。” 4 从前写在圣经上的话都是为了教导我们，使我们靠着忍耐和圣经的鼓励而有盼望。 5 但愿赐忍耐和鼓励的上帝给你们合一的心去效法基督耶稣的榜样， 6 使你们一起同声颂赞上帝——我们主耶稣基督的父。
7 所以，你们应该像基督接纳你们一样彼此接纳，使上帝得荣耀。 8 你们要知道，基督为了上帝的真理成为犹太人[d]的仆人，好实现上帝对犹太人祖先们的应许， 9 使外族人也因祂的怜悯而将荣耀归给上帝。正如圣经上说：
“因此，我要在列邦中赞美你，
歌颂你的名。”
10 又说：
“外族人啊，
你们当与主的子民一同欢乐。”
11 又说：
“万邦啊，你们当赞美主！
万民啊，你们当颂赞祂！”
12 以赛亚先知也说：
“将来耶西的根要兴起，
祂要统治外族，
外族人都要仰望祂。”
13 愿使人有盼望的上帝，因为你们信祂，将诸般的喜乐和平安充满你们的心，使你们借着圣灵的能力充满盼望！
Romans 12:1-15:13
King James Version
12 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.
2 And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.
3 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.
4 For as we have many members in one body, and all members have not the same office:
5 So we, being many, are one body in Christ, and every one members one of another.
6 Having then gifts differing according to the grace that is given to us, whether prophecy, let us prophesy according to the proportion of faith;
7 Or ministry, let us wait on our ministering: or he that teacheth, on teaching;
8 Or he that exhorteth, on exhortation: he that giveth, let him do it with simplicity; he that ruleth, with diligence; he that sheweth mercy, with cheerfulness.
9 Let love be without dissimulation. Abhor that which is evil; cleave to that which is good.
10 Be kindly affectioned one to another with brotherly love; in honour preferring one another;
11 Not slothful in business; fervent in spirit; serving the Lord;
12 Rejoicing in hope; patient in tribulation; continuing instant in prayer;
13 Distributing to the necessity of saints; given to hospitality.
14 Bless them which persecute you: bless, and curse not.
15 Rejoice with them that do rejoice, and weep with them that weep.
16 Be of the same mind one toward another. Mind not high things, but condescend to men of low estate. Be not wise in your own conceits.
17 Recompense to no man evil for evil. Provide things honest in the sight of all men.
18 If it be possible, as much as lieth in you, live peaceably with all men.
19 Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give place unto wrath: for it is written, Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord.
20 Therefore if thine enemy hunger, feed him; if he thirst, give him drink: for in so doing thou shalt heap coals of fire on his head.
21 Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good.
13 Let every soul be subject unto the higher powers. For there is no power but of God: the powers that be are ordained of God.
2 Whosoever therefore resisteth the power, resisteth the ordinance of God: and they that resist shall receive to themselves damnation.
3 For rulers are not a terror to good works, but to the evil. Wilt thou then not be afraid of the power? do that which is good, and thou shalt have praise of the same:
4 For he is the minister of God to thee for good. But if thou do that which is evil, be afraid; for he beareth not the sword in vain: for he is the minister of God, a revenger to execute wrath upon him that doeth evil.
5 Wherefore ye must needs be subject, not only for wrath, but also for conscience sake.
6 For for this cause pay ye tribute also: for they are God's ministers, attending continually upon this very thing.
7 Render therefore to all their dues: tribute to whom tribute is due; custom to whom custom; fear to whom fear; honour to whom honour.
8 Owe no man any thing, but to love one another: for he that loveth another hath fulfilled the law.
9 For this, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not kill, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness, Thou shalt not covet; and if there be any other commandment, it is briefly comprehended in this saying, namely, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.
10 Love worketh no ill to his neighbour: therefore love is the fulfilling of the law.
11 And that, knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake out of sleep: for now is our salvation nearer than when we believed.
12 The night is far spent, the day is at hand: let us therefore cast off the works of darkness, and let us put on the armour of light.
13 Let us walk honestly, as in the day; not in rioting and drunkenness, not in chambering and wantonness, not in strife and envying.
14 But put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make not provision for the flesh, to fulfil the lusts thereof.
14 Him that is weak in the faith receive ye, but not to doubtful disputations.
2 For one believeth that he may eat all things: another, who is weak, eateth herbs.
3 Let not him that eateth despise him that eateth not; and let not him which eateth not judge him that eateth: for God hath received him.
4 Who art thou that judgest another man's servant? to his own master he standeth or falleth. Yea, he shall be holden up: for God is able to make him stand.
5 One man esteemeth one day above another: another esteemeth every day alike. Let every man be fully persuaded in his own mind.
6 He that regardeth the day, regardeth it unto the Lord; and he that regardeth not the day, to the Lord he doth not regard it. He that eateth, eateth to the Lord, for he giveth God thanks; and he that eateth not, to the Lord he eateth not, and giveth God thanks.
7 For none of us liveth to himself, and no man dieth to himself.
8 For whether we live, we live unto the Lord; and whether we die, we die unto the Lord: whether we live therefore, or die, we are the Lord's.
9 For to this end Christ both died, and rose, and revived, that he might be Lord both of the dead and living.
10 But why dost thou judge thy brother? or why dost thou set at nought thy brother? for we shall all stand before the judgment seat of Christ.
11 For it is written, As I live, saith the Lord, every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall confess to God.
12 So then every one of us shall give account of himself to God.
13 Let us not therefore judge one another any more: but judge this rather, that no man put a stumblingblock or an occasion to fall in his brother's way.
14 I know, and am persuaded by the Lord Jesus, that there is nothing unclean of itself: but to him that esteemeth any thing to be unclean, to him it is unclean.
15 But if thy brother be grieved with thy meat, now walkest thou not charitably. Destroy not him with thy meat, for whom Christ died.
16 Let not then your good be evil spoken of:
17 For the kingdom of God is not meat and drink; but righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost.
18 For he that in these things serveth Christ is acceptable to God, and approved of men.
19 Let us therefore follow after the things which make for peace, and things wherewith one may edify another.
20 For meat destroy not the work of God. All things indeed are pure; but it is evil for that man who eateth with offence.
21 It is good neither to eat flesh, nor to drink wine, nor any thing whereby thy brother stumbleth, or is offended, or is made weak.
22 Hast thou faith? have it to thyself before God. Happy is he that condemneth not himself in that thing which he alloweth.
23 And he that doubteth is damned if he eat, because he eateth not of faith: for whatsoever is not of faith is sin.
15 We then that are strong ought to bear the infirmities of the weak, and not to please ourselves.
2 Let every one of us please his neighbour for his good to edification.
3 For even Christ pleased not himself; but, as it is written, The reproaches of them that reproached thee fell on me.
4 For whatsoever things were written aforetime were written for our learning, that we through patience and comfort of the scriptures might have hope.
5 Now the God of patience and consolation grant you to be likeminded one toward another according to Christ Jesus:
6 That ye may with one mind and one mouth glorify God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.
7 Wherefore receive ye one another, as Christ also received us to the glory of God.
8 Now I say that Jesus Christ was a minister of the circumcision for the truth of God, to confirm the promises made unto the fathers:
9 And that the Gentiles might glorify God for his mercy; as it is written, For this cause I will confess to thee among the Gentiles, and sing unto thy name.
10 And again he saith, Rejoice, ye Gentiles, with his people.
11 And again, Praise the Lord, all ye Gentiles; and laud him, all ye people.
12 And again, Esaias saith, There shall be a root of Jesse, and he that shall rise to reign over the Gentiles; in him shall the Gentiles trust.
13 Now the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that ye may abound in hope, through the power of the Holy Ghost.
