< Romans 14 >

1 The [one] now being weak in the faith do receive not for passing judgment on reasonings.
But him that is weak in faith receive ye, [yet] not for decision of scruples.
2 One indeed believes to eat all things, the [one] however being weak vegetables eats.
One man hath faith to eat all things: but he that is weak eateth herbs.
3 The [one] eating the [one] not eating not he should despise, (and *k) the [one] (now *no) not eating him eating not he should judge; God for him has received.
Let not him that eateth set at nought him that eateth not; and let not him that eateth not judge him that eateth: for God hath received him.
4 You yourself who are who is judging another’s servant? To the own master he stands or falls. He will be upheld however, (able is *N+kO) for (is *k) the (Lord *N+KO) to uphold him.
Who art thou that judgest the servant of another? to his own lord he standeth or falleth. Yea, he shall be made to stand; for the Lord hath power to make him stand.
5 One indeed (for *no) judges a day [to be] above [another] day, one [other] however judges every day [alike]; Each in the own mind should be fully assured.
One man esteemeth one day above another: another esteemeth every day [alike]. Let each man be fully assured in his own mind.
6 The [one] regarding the day to [the] Lord regards [it] (and the [one] not regarding the day to [the] Lord not regards [it]; *K) (And *no) the [one] eating to [the] Lord eats, he gives thanks for to God; and the [one] not eating to [the] Lord not he eats, and he gives thanks to God.
He that regardeth the day, regardeth it unto the Lord: and he that eateth, eateth unto the Lord, for he giveth God thanks; and he that eateth not, unto the Lord he eateth not, and giveth God thanks.
7 No [one] for of us to himself lives and no [one] to himself dies.
For none of us liveth to himself, and none dieth to himself.
8 If both for we shall live, to the Lord we live, if also we shall die, to the Lord we die. If both therefore we shall live, if also we shall die, the Lord’s we are.
For whether we live, we live unto the Lord; or whether we die, we die unto the Lord: whether we live therefore, or die, we are the Lord’s.
9 Unto this for Christ (and *k) died (and rose up *K) and (lived again, *N+kO) that both over [the] dead and living He may rule.
For to this end Christ died and lived [again], that he might be Lord of both the dead and the living.
10 You yourself however why judge you the brother or you? or also you yourself why do despise the brother of you? All for we will stand before the judgment seat (of God. *N+KO)
But thou, why dost thou judge thy brother? or thou again, why dost thou set at nought thy brother? for we shall all stand before the judgment-seat of God.
11 It has been written for: Live I myself, says [the] Lord, that to Me myself will bow every knee, and every tongue will confess to God.
For it is written, As I live, saith the Lord, to me every knee shall bow, And every tongue shall confess to God.
12 So then each of us concerning his own account (will give *NK+o) to God.
So then each one of us shall give account of himself to God.
13 No longer therefore one another shall we judge, but this do determine rather, not to put [any] stumbling block before [your] brother or snare.
Let us not therefore judge one another any more: but judge ye this rather, that no man put a stumblingblock in his brother’s way, or an occasion of falling.
14 I know and I have been persuaded in [the] Lord Jesus that nothing [is] unclean through (itself, *NK+o) only except by the [one] reckoning anything unclean to be, to that one unclean [it is];
I know, and am persuaded in the Lord Jesus, that nothing is unclean of itself: save that to him who accounteth anything to be unclean, to him it is unclean.
15 If (for *N+kO) on account of food the brother of you is grieved, no longer no longer according to love are you walking. Not with the food of you that one do destroy for whom Christ died.
For if because of meat thy brother is grieved, thou walkest no longer in love. Destroy not with thy meat him for whom Christ died.
16 Not should be denigrated therefore your good.
Let not then your good be evil spoken of:
17 Not for is the kingdom of God eating and drinking but righteousness and peace and joy in [the] Spirit Holy;
for the kingdom of God is not eating and drinking, but righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit.
18 The [one] for in (this thing *N+KO) serving Christ [is] well-pleasing to God and approved by men.
For he that herein serveth Christ is well-pleasing to God, and approved of men.
19 So then the [things] of peace we may pursue and the [things] for edification among each other.
So then let us follow after things which make for peace, and things whereby we may edify one another.
20 Not for the sake of food do destroy the work of God. All things indeed [are] clean but [it is] evil to the man through a stumbling block eating;
Overthrow not for meat’s sake the work of God. All things indeed are clean; howbeit it is evil for that man who eateth with offence.
21 [It is] good neither to eat meat nor to drink wine nor [anything] in which the brother of you stumbles (or is led into sin or is weak *KO)
It is good not to eat flesh, nor to drink wine, nor [to do anything] whereby thy brother stumbleth.
22 You yourself [the] faith (that *no) you have to yourself do keep before God; Blessed [is] the [one] not judging himself in what he approves.
The faith which thou hast, have thou to thyself before God. Happy is he that judgeth not himself in that which he approveth.
23 The [one] however doubting if he shall eat has been condemned, because [it is] not of faith; everything now that [is] not of faith sin is.
But he that doubteth is condemned if he eat, because [he eateth] not of faith; and whatsoever is not of faith is sin.
