12.1 So I urge you, brothers and sisters, because of* God’s mercies, offer your bodies as a living, holy sacrifice, pleasing to God – your form of worship that makes sense.

2 And don’t** go along with the pattern of this age, but be transformed by the renewing of your*** mind. This will mean you are able to discern what God’s will is – what is good and pleasing and perfect.

* Lit. ‘through’.

** Some willingness to use typical abbreviations in spoken English, such as ‘don’t’, seems more likely to catch the sense of the letter as a text to be read out than does the consistently formal register generally used in Bible translations.
