Romans 14
1 Him that is weak in the faith receive ye, but not to doubtful disputations.
Mumulamile wona wona unu Ali mulenga mu likilisha, obhutasosha ndamu okulubhana na ameganilisho gae.
2 For one believeth that he may eat all things: another, who is weak, eateth herbs.
Omunu oumwi ali nelikilisha lyo kulya china chona, oundi unu ali mulenga kalyala omukubhi- la.
3 Let not him that eateth despise him that eateth not; and let not him who eateth not judge him that eateth: for God hath received him.
Omunu unu kalya bhuli chinu asigega okumwigelela mwenene unu atakulya chona chona. No mwene unu atakulya bhuli chinu asigega kumulamula oundi unu atakulya bhuli chinu. Kulwo kubha Nyamuanga amalile okumulamila.
4 Who art thou that judgest another man’s servant? to his own master he standeth or falleth. And, he shall be held up: for God is able to make him stand.
Awe nawega, awe unu oulamula omukosi unu guli mugabho gwo munu undi? Mbe ni imbele ya Latabhugenyi wae ati kemelegulu amwi kagwa. Mbe nawe kenamusibhwa, kulwo kubha Latabhugenyi katula okumukola emelegulu.
5 One man esteemeth one day above another: another esteemeth every day alike. Let every man be fully persuaded in his own mind.
Munu umwi kalukusha olusiku lumwi kukila olundi. Oundi kajikusha bhuli nsiku jona kubha jinganilie -ela. Mbe woli bhuli munu eganilishe mu bhwenge bhwae omwene.
6 He that regardeth the day, regardeth it to the Lord; and he that regardeth not the day, to the Lord he doth not regard it. He that eateth, eateth to the Lord, for he giveth God thanks; and he that eateth not, to the Lord he eateth not, and giveth God thanks.
Omwene oyo kagwata olusiku, kagwata ingulu ya Latabhugenyi. Na ku mwene unu kalya, kalya ingulu ya Latabhugenyi, kulwo kubha kamuyana Nyamuanga isime. Omwene unu atakulya, keganya okulya ingulu ya Latabhugenyi. mwenene one kasosha isime ku Nyamuanga.
7 For none of us liveth to himself, and no man dieth to himself.
Kulwo kubha atalio unu alamile ku bhuanga bhwae, na atalio unu kafwa ingulu yae omwene.
8 For whether we live, we live to the Lord; and whether we die, we die to the Lord: whether we live therefore, or die, we are the Lord’s.
Kulwo kubha alabha echilama, echilama ingulu ya Latabhugenyi. Na kalabha echifwa, echifwa ingulu ya Latabhugenyi. Mbe woli alabha echilama amwi echifwa mbe chili mugabho gwa Latabhugenyi.
9 For to this end Christ both died, and rose, and revived, that he might be Lord both of the dead and the living.
Kulwo kwenda kunu Kristo afuye no kulama lindi, ati abhe Latabhugenyi wa bhona bhanu bhafuye na bhanu bhali bhaanga.
10 But why dost thou judge thy brother? or why dost thou show contempt for thy brother? for we shall all stand before the judgment seat of Christ.
Mbe nawe awe, Kulwaki oumulamula owanyu? Ka nawe, Kulwaki oumwigelela owanyu? Kulwo kubha eswe bhona chilimelegulu imbele ye chitebhe cha indamu Cha Nyamuanga.
11 For it is written, As I live, saith the Lord, every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall confess to God.
kulwo kubha jandikilwe, “Lwa kutyo nilamile,” kaika Latabhugenyi, “Kwanye anye bhuli Ng'okola eifukama, na bhuli lulimi lulisosha (jisifa) ku Nyamuanga.”
12 So then every one of us shall give account of himself to God.
Kulwejo woli, bhuli umwi weswe kasosha libhala lyae omwene ku Nyamuanga.
13 Let us not therefore judge one another any more: but judge this rather, that no man put a stumblingblock or an occasion to fall in his brother’s way.
Kulwejo, chisige okugendelela lindi okulamulana, mbe nawe amwi okusigana nejo lamula kutya, ati atali unu alatulao echikujusho amwi mipalasuka ku muili wae.
14 I know, and am persuaded by the Lord Jesus, that there is nothing unclean by itself: but to him that esteemeth any thing to be unclean, to him it is unclean.
Nimenyele na nikongibhwe mu Latabhugenyi Yesu, ati chitali chinu chinu chili chijabhi echene-la. Ni kumwene-la unu ketogela ati chona chona hi chijabhi, kulwo kubha ku mwene ni chijabhi.
15 But if thy brother is grieved with thy food, now walkest thou not in love. Destroy not him with thy food, for whom Christ died.
Akabha kwa insonga ye ebhilyo omuili wao kasulumbala, utachalibhata lindi mu kwenda. Wasiga munyamula kwe bhilyo bhyao omunu unu Kristo afuye ingulu yae.
16 Let not then your good be evil spoken of:
Kwibhyo mwasiga kwikilisha ebhikolwa bhyemwe ebhye kisi okuletelela abhanu okubhajimya.
17 For the kingdom of God is not food and drink; but righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit.
Kulwo kubha obhukama bhwa Nyamuanga bhutali ingulu ye bhilyo no bhunywi, mbe nawe ni ingulu yo bhulengelesi, omulembe, no bhukondeleywe mu Mwoyo Mwelu.
18 For he that in these things serveth Christ is acceptable to God, and approved by men.
Kulwo kubha unu kamukola Kristo kwo okulubhana na jinu ekilisibhwe ku Nyamuanga na ekilisibhwe na ku bhanu.
19 Let us therefore follow after the things which make for peace, and things which one may edify another.
Kwibhyo woli, chilubhe emisango jinu ejimumbaka omunu no lundi.
20 For the sake of food destroy not the work of God. All things indeed are pure; but it is evil for that man who eateth with offence.
Wasiga kunyamula omulimu gwa Nyamuanga kunsonga ye bhilyo. Ebhinu bhyona kulwe chimali ni bhyakisi, mbe nawe ni bhibhibhi ku munu ulya unu Kalya nokuletelela mwenene ekujule.
21 It is good neither to eat flesh, nor to drink wine, nor any thing by which thy brother stumbleth, or is offended, or is made weak.
Ni kwakisi okusiga okulya inyama, nolwo okunywa obhwalwa, nolwo chona chona chinu kwicho omuili wao kekujula.
22 Hast thou faith? have it to thyself before God. Happy is he that condemneth not himself in what he approveth.
Obhwikilisha bhwa insonga bhunu ulinabhwo, nubhute agati yao omwene na Nyamuanga. Alina libhando unu atakwilamula omwene mu chilya chinu kekilishanya nacho.
23 And he that doubteth is condemned if he eateth, because he eateth not from faith: for whatever is not from faith is sin.
Unu ali ne bhitimato alamuywe alabha kalya, Kulwo kubha itakusokana ne likilisha. Na chona chona chinu chitakusokana mu likilisha ni bhibhibhi.
