Римляни 12
Bulgarian Bible
12 И тъй, моля ви, братя, поради Божиите милости, да представите телата си в жертва жива, света, благоугодна на Бога, като ваше духовно служение.
2 И недейте се съобразява с тоя век ( Или: свят )., но преобразявайте се чрез обновяване на ума си, за да познаете от опит що е Божията воля, 3 Защото, чрез дадената ми благодат, казвам на всеки един измежду вас, който е по-виден да не мисли за себе си по-високо, отколкото трябва да мисли, но да разсъждава така, щото да мисли скромно, според делата на вярата, които Бог е на всекиго разпределил.
4 Защото, както имаме много части в едно тяло, а не всичките части имат същата служба,
5 така и ние мнозината сме едно тяло в Христа, а сме части, всеки от нас, един на друг.
6 И като имаме дарби, които се различават според дадената ни благодат, ако е пророчество, нека пророкуваме съразмерно с вярата;
7 ако ли служене, нека прилежаваме в служенето, ако някой поучава, нека прилежава в поучаването:
8 ако увещава, в увещаването: който раздава, да раздава щедро; който управлява, да управлява с усърдие; който показва милост, да я показва доброволно.
9 Любовта да бъде нелицемерна; отвращавайте се от злото, а прилепявайте се към доброто.
10 В братолюбието си обичайте се един друг, като сродници; изпреваряйте да си отдавате един на друг почит.
11 В усърдието бивайте нелениви, пламенни по дух, като служите на Господа.
12 Радвайте се в надеждата, в скръб бивайте твърди, в молитва постоянни.
13 Помагайте на светиите в нуждите им; предавайте се на гостолюбие.
14 Благославяйте ония, които ви гонят, благославяйте, и не кълнете
15 Радвайте се с ония, които се радват; плачете с ония, които плачат.
16 Бъдете единомислени един към друг; не давайте ума си на високи неща, но предавайте се на скромни неща; не считайте себе си за мъдри.
17 Никому не връщайте зло за зло; промишлявайте за това, което е добро пред всичките човеци;
18 ако е възможно, доколкото зависи от вас, живейте в мир с всичките човеци.
19 Не си отмъстявайте, възлюбени, но дайте място на Божия гняв; защото е писано: "На мене принадлежи отмъщението, Аз ще сторя въздаяние, казва Господ".
20 Но, "Ако е гладен неприятелят ти, нахрани го; Ако е жаден, напой го; Защото, това като правиш, ще натрупаш жар на главата му".
21 Не се оставай да те побеждава злото; но ти побеждавай злото чрез доброто.

Dedicated Service
12 Therefore (A)I urge you, brothers and sisters, by the mercies of God, to (B)present your bodies as a living and holy sacrifice, [a]acceptable to God, which is your [b]spiritual service of worship. 2 And do not (C)be conformed to (D)this [c]world, but be transformed by the (E)renewing of your mind, so that you may [d](F)prove what the will of God is, that which is good and [e]acceptable and perfect.
3 For through (G)the grace given to me I say to everyone among you (H)not to think more highly of himself than he ought to think; but to think so as to have sound judgment, as God has allotted to (I)each a measure of faith. 4 For (J)just as we have many parts in one body and all [f]the body’s parts do not have the same function, 5 so we, (K)who are many, are (L)one body in Christ, and individually parts of one another. 6 However, since we have gifts that (M)differ according to the grace given to us, each of us is to use them properly: if (N)prophecy, [g]in proportion to one’s faith; 7 if [h](O)service, in the act of serving; or the one who (P)teaches, in the act of teaching; 8 or the one who [i](Q)exhorts, in the work of [j]exhortation; the one who gives, with [k](R)generosity; (S)the one who [l]is in leadership, with diligence; the one who shows mercy, with (T)cheerfulness.
9 [m](U)Love must be free of hypocrisy. (V)Detest what is evil; cling to what is good. 10 Be (W)devoted to one another in brotherly love; [n]give preference to one another (X)in honor, 11 not lagging behind in diligence, (Y)fervent in spirit, (Z)serving the Lord; 12 (AA)rejoicing in hope, (AB)persevering in tribulation, (AC)devoted to prayer, 13 (AD)contributing to the needs of the [o]saints, [p](AE)practicing hospitality.
14 (AF)Bless those who persecute [q]you; bless and do not curse. 15 (AG)Rejoice with those who rejoice, and weep with those who weep. 16 (AH)Be of the same mind toward one another; (AI)do not be [r]haughty in mind, but [s]associate with the lowly. (AJ)Do not be wise in your own estimation. 17 (AK)Never repay evil for evil to anyone. [t](AL)Respect what is right in the sight of all people. 18 If possible, (AM)so far as it depends on you, (AN)be at peace with all people. 19 (AO)Never take your own revenge, beloved, but [u]leave room for the wrath of God, for it is written: “(AP)Vengeance is Mine, I will repay,” says the Lord. 20 “(AQ)But if your enemy is hungry, feed him; if he is thirsty, give him a drink; for in so doing you will heap burning coals on his head.” 21 Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

Living Sacrifices to God
12 I (A)beseech[a] you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies (B)a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your [b]reasonable service. 2 And (C)do not be conformed to this world, but (D)be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may (E)prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.
Serve God with Spiritual Gifts
3 For I say, (F)through the grace given to me, to everyone who is among you, (G)not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think, but to think soberly, as God has dealt (H)to each one a measure of faith. 4 For (I)as we have many members in one body, but all the members do not have the same function, 5 so (J)we, being many, are one body in Christ, and individually members of one another. 6 Having then gifts differing according to the grace that is (K)given to us, let us use them: if prophecy, let us (L)prophesy in proportion to our faith; 7 or ministry, let us use it in our ministering; (M)he who teaches, in teaching; 8 (N)he who exhorts, in exhortation; (O)he who gives, with liberality; (P)he who leads, with diligence; he who shows mercy, (Q)with cheerfulness.
Behave Like a Christian
9 (R)Let love be without hypocrisy. (S)Abhor what is evil. Cling to what is good. 10 (T)Be kindly affectionate to one another with brotherly love, (U)in honor giving preference to one another; 11 not lagging in diligence, fervent in spirit, serving the Lord; 12 (V)rejoicing in hope, (W)patient[c] in tribulation, (X)continuing steadfastly in prayer; 13 (Y)distributing to the needs of the saints, (Z)given[d] to hospitality.
14 (AA)Bless those who persecute you; bless and do not curse. 15 (AB)Rejoice with those who rejoice, and weep with those who weep. 16 (AC)Be of the same mind toward one another. (AD)Do not set your mind on high things, but associate with the humble. Do not be wise in your own opinion.
17 (AE)Repay no one evil for evil. (AF)Have[e] regard for good things in the sight of all men. 18 If it is possible, as much as depends on you, (AG)live peaceably with all men. 19 Beloved, (AH)do not avenge yourselves, but rather give place to wrath; for it is written, (AI)“Vengeance is Mine, I will repay,” says the Lord. 20 Therefore
(AJ)“If your enemy is hungry, feed him;
If he is thirsty, give him a drink;
For in so doing you will heap coals of fire on his head.”
21 Do not be overcome by evil, but (AK)overcome evil with good.
