Romans 12:1-3
Disciples’ Literal New Testament
I Urge You To Present Your Bodies To God As a Living Sacrifice, And Renew Your Mind
12 Therefore I urge you, brothers, by the compassions[a] of God, to present[b] your bodies as a living holy sacrifice pleasing to God, as your spiritual[c] worship[d]. 2 And do not be conformed[e] to this age[f], but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may be approving what[g] is the good and pleasing and perfect will of God.
Think Sound-Mindedly About Yourself As God Has Apportioned You The Faith
3 For I say to everyone being among you through the grace having been given to me not to be thinking-highly of yourself beyond what you ought-to think, but to be thinking so as to be sound-minded, as God apportioned[h] to each a measure[i] of faith.
