3 For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior;
Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus according to the commandment of God our Savior, and Christ Jesus our hope;
Declare you, and bring [it] forth; yes, let them take counsel together: who has shown this from ancient time? who has declared it of old? Haven't I, Yahweh? and there is no God else besides me, a just God and a Savior; there is no one besides me.
Therefore 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. Don'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.
for the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness and righteousness and truth, proving what is well-pleasing to the Lord.
being filled with the fruits of righteousness, which are through Jesus Christ, to the glory and praise of God.
that you may walk worthily of the Lord, to please him in all respects, bearing fruit in every good work, and increasing in the knowledge of God;
Finally then, brothers, we beg and exhort you in the Lord Jesus, that as you received from us how you ought to walk and to please God, that you abound more and more.
But don't forget to be doing good and sharing, for with such sacrifices God is well pleased.
You also, as living stones, are built up as a spiritual house, to be a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.
