Romans 12:2

Next

And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what [is] that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.

And {G2532} be {G4964} not {G3361} conformed {G4964} to this {G5129} world {G165}: but {G235} be ye transformed {G3339} by the renewing {G342} of your {G5216} mind {G3563}, that {G1519} ye {G5209} may prove {G1381} what {G5101} is that good {G18}, and {G2532} acceptable {G2101}, and {G2532} perfect {G5046}, will {G2307} of God {G2316}.

In other words, do not let yourselves be conformed to the standards of the ‘olam hazeh. Instead, keep letting yourselves be transformed by the renewing of your minds; so that you will know what God wants and will agree that what he wants is good, satisfying and able to succeed.

Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what is the good, pleasing, and perfect will of God.

And be not fashioned according to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is the good and acceptable and perfect will of God.
