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.

Amplified Bible
Dedicated Service
12 [a]Therefore I urge you, [b]brothers and sisters, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies [dedicating all of yourselves, set apart] as a living sacrifice, holy and well-pleasing to God, which is your rational (logical, intelligent) act of worship. 2 And do not be conformed to this world [any longer with its superficial values and customs], but be [c]transformed and progressively changed [as you mature spiritually] by the renewing of your mind [focusing on godly values and ethical attitudes], so that you may prove [for yourselves] what the will of God is, that which is good and acceptable and perfect [in His plan and purpose for you].

12 Por tanto, hermanos, les ruego(A) por las misericordias de Dios que presenten sus cuerpos como sacrificio vivo y santo(B), aceptable a Dios, que es el culto racional de ustedes. 2 Y no se adapten a este mundo[a](C), sino transfórmense mediante la renovación de su mente(D), para que verifiquen cuál es la voluntad de Dios: lo que es bueno y aceptable y perfecto(E).
