1 I appeal to you therefore, brothers,¹ by the mercies of God, to ^lpresent your bodies as a ^mliving sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship.² 2 ⁿDo not be conformed to this world,³ but be ^otransformed by the ^prenewal of your mind, that by testing you may ^qdiscern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.⁴
