Russian term or phrase: подвигли
Страстная седмица и дается нам для того, чтобы, пройдя поприще Святой Четыре-десятницы и, может быть, что-то не успев сделать за эти сорок дней Великого поста, мы в эти святые дни, проникаясь смыслом всего того, что Бог во Христе совершил ради нашего спасения, подвигли себя к тому, чтобы принести плод Господу, плод нашей жизни, которым и оправдаемся на Страшном Суде Божием

strive to bear fruit
Explanation:
we need to strive to bear fruit

Literally it means "to endeavour to bear (produce) fruit", but I would say that "strive" fits better in this particular context, as we're not speaking about a single act of bearing fruit and then going back to life as usual, but rather we need to continuously strive to produce fruit in our life till the day of judgment

agree  Lazyt3ch: Там «подвигли на гнев», так что никакого ideal fit не вижу... P.S. Примеры в _положительном_ значении будут? P.P.S. Изменил свое мнение благодаря самому себе. :)))

  -> это просто пример из Библии «подвигли на гнев», в этом контексте не на гнев а "к тому, чтобы принести плод Господу"
