¹Therefore I urge you, brothers, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your spiritual service.

¹[Ny fitondran-tena mahamendrika ny Kristiana] Koa amin'izany mangataka aminareo aho, ry rahalahy, noho ny famindram-pon'Andriamanitra, mba hatolotrareo ny tenanareo ho fanatitra velona, masina, sitrak'Andriamanitra, dia fanompoam-panahy mety hataonareo izany. [ Na: fanompoam-pivavahana]

²Don’t be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what is the good, well-pleasing, and perfect will of God.

²Ary aza manaraka ny fanaon'izao tontolo izao; fa miovà amin'ny fanavaozana ny saina, hamantaranareo ny sitrapon'Andriamanitra, dia izay tsara sady ankasitrahana no marina. [ Gr. tanteraka].

³For I say, through the grace that was given me, to every man who is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think; but to think reasonably, as God has apportioned to each person a measure of faith.

³Fa noho ny fahasoavana nomena ahy dia izao no lazaiko amin'ny olona rehetra izay eo aminareo: Aza mihevitra mihoatra noho izay tokony hoheverina; fa mihevera izay onony araka ny ohatry ny finoana izay nozarain'Andriamanitra ho anareo avy.

⁴For even as we have many members in one body, and all the members don’t have the same function,

⁴Fa toy ny ananantsika zavatra maro momba ny tena iray, nefa tsy mitovy asa izay rehetra momba ny tena,

⁵so we, who are many, are one body in Christ, and individually members one of another.

⁵dia toy izany koa isika, na dia maro aza, dia tena iray ihany ao amin'i Kristy, ary samy miara-momba ny tena isika rehetra.

⁶Having gifts differing according to the grace that was given to us, if prophecy, let us prophesy according to the proportion of our faith;

⁶Ary satria samy manana fanomezam-pahasoavana samy hafa isika, araka ny fahasoavana izay nomena antsika: raha faminaniana, dia aoka hatao araka ny ohatry ny finoana;

⁷or service, let us give ourselves to service; or he who teaches, to his teaching;

⁷raha fanompoana amin'ny fiangonana, dia aoka ho amin'ny fanompoana; raha mampianatra, dia aoka ho amin'ny fampianarana;

⁸or he who exhorts, to his exhorting: he who gives, let him do it with liberality; he who rules, with diligence; he who shows mercy, with cheerfulness.

⁸raha mananatra, dia aoka ho amin'ny fananarana; izay manome, dia aoka ho amin'ny fahatsoram-po; izay manapaka, dia aoka ho amin'ny fahazotoana; izay mamindra fo, dia aoka ho amin'ny fifaliana.

⁹Let love be without hypocrisy. Abhor that which is evil. Cling to that which is good.

⁹Aoka ny fitiavana ho amin'ny tsi-fihatsaram-belatsihy; mankahalà ny ratsy; mifikira amin'ny tsara.

¹⁰In love of the brothers be tenderly affectionate one to another; in honor preferring one another;

¹⁰Mifankatiava araka ny fifankatiavan'ny mpirahalahy; mitariha lalana amin'ny fifanomezam-boninahitra.

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

¹¹Mazotoa, fa aza malaina, ary aoka hafana fo amin'ny fanompoana ny Tompo.

¹²rejoicing in hope; enduring in troubles; continuing steadfastly in prayer;

¹²Mifalia amin'ny fanantenana; miareta amin'ny fahoriana; mahareta amin'ny fivavahana.

¹³contributing to the needs of the saints; given to hospitality.

¹³Miantrà ny olona masina araka izay ilainy; mazotoa mampiantrano vahiny.

¹⁴Bless those who persecute you; bless, and don’t curse.

¹⁴Misaora izay manenjika anareo; misaora, fa aza manozona.

¹⁵Rejoice with those who rejoice. Weep with those who weep.

¹⁵Miaraha mifaly amin'izay mifaly, ary miaraha mitomany amin'izay mitomany.

¹⁶Be of the same mind one toward another. Don’t set your mind on high things, but associate with the humble. Don’t be wise in your own conceits.

¹⁶Miraisa saina. Aza mihevitra izay hiavonavonana, fa aoka mba ho zatra amin'ny fietrena ianareo. Aza manao ny tenanareo ho hendry. [ Na: manetre tena amin'ny malahelo]

¹⁷Repay no one evil for evil. Respect what is honorable in the sight of all men.

¹⁷Aza mamaly ratsy na amin'iza na amin'iza. Miomàna hanao izay mahamendrika eo imason'ny olona rehetra.

¹⁸If it is possible, as much as it is up to you, be at peace with all men.

¹⁸Raha azo atao, dia ataovy izay hihavananareo amin'ny olona rehetra.

¹⁹Don’t seek revenge yourselves, beloved, but give place to God’s wrath. For it is written, “Vengeance belongs to me; I will repay, says the Lord.” Deuteronomy 32:35

¹⁹Ry malala, aza mamaly ratsy, fa omeo lalana ny fahatezerana; fa voasoratra hoe: Ahy ny famaliana; Izaho no hamaly, hoy Jehovah (Deo. 32. 35).

²⁰Therefore “If your enemy is hungry, feed him. If he is thirsty, give him a drink; for in doing so, you will heap coals of fire on his head.” Proverbs 25:21-22

²⁰Fa raha noana ny fahavalonao, omeo hanina izy; raha mangetaheta izy, omeo hosotroiny; fa raha manao izany ianao, dia hanambatra vainafo ho eo an-dohany (Oha. 25. 21, 22).Aza mety ho resin'ny ratsy ianao, fa reseo amin'ny soa ny ratsy.

²¹Don’t be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

²¹Aza mety ho resin'ny ratsy ianao, fa reseo amin'ny soa ny ratsy.
