Romans 14
1 And him who is weak in the faith receive ye — not to determinations of reasonings;
Infirmum autem in fide assumite, non in disceptationibus cogitationum.
2 one doth believe that he may eat all things — and he who is weak doth eat herbs;
Alius enim credit se manducare omnia: qui autem infirmus est, olus manducet.
3 let not him who is eating despise him who is not eating: and let not him who is not eating judge him who is eating, for God did receive him.
Is, qui manducat, non manducantem non spernat: et qui non manducat, manducantem non iudicet: Deus enim illum assumpsit.
4 Thou — who art thou that art judging another's domestic? to his own master he doth stand or fall; and he shall be made to stand, for God is able to make him stand.
Tu quis es, qui iudicas alienum servum? Domino suo stat, aut cadit: stabit autem: potens est enim Deus statuere illum.
5 One doth judge one day above another, and another doth judge every day [alike]; let each in his own mind be fully assured.
Nam alius iudicat diem inter diem: alius autem iudicat omnem diem: unusquisque in suo sensu abundet.
6 He who is regarding the day, to the Lord he doth regard [it], and he who is not regarding the day, to the Lord he doth not regard [it]. He who is eating, to the Lord he doth eat, for he doth give thanks to God; and he who is not eating, to the Lord he doth not eat, and doth give thanks to God.
Qui sapit diem, Domino sapit: Et qui manducat, Domino manducat: gratias enim agit Deo. Et qui non manducat, Domino non manducat, et gratias agit Deo.
7 For none of us to himself doth live, and none to himself doth die;
Nemo enim nostrum sibi vivit, et nemo sibi moritur.
8 for both, if we may live, to the Lord we live; if also we may die, to the Lord we die; both then if we may live, also if we may die, we are the Lord's;
Sive enim vivemus, Domino vivimus: sive morimur, Domino morimur. Sive ergo vivimus, sive morimur, Domini sumus.
9 for because of this Christ both died and rose again, and lived again, that both of dead and of living he may be Lord.
In hoc enim Christus mortuus est, et resurrexit: ut et mortuorum et vivorum dominetur.
10 And thou, why dost thou judge thy brother? or again, thou, why dost thou set at nought thy brother? for we shall all stand at the tribunal of the Christ;
Tu autem quid iudicas fratrem tuum? aut tu quare spernis fratrem tuum? Omnes enim stabimus ante tribunal Christi.
11 for it hath been written, 'I live! saith the Lord — to Me bow shall every knee, and every tongue shall confess to God;'
scriptum est enim: Vivo ego, dicit Dominus, quoniam mihi flectetur omne genu: et omnis lingua confitebitur Deo.
12 so, then, each of us concerning himself shall give reckoning to God;
Itaque unusquisque nostrum pro se rationem reddet Deo.
13 no longer, therefore, may we judge one another, but this judge ye rather, not to put a stumbling-stone before the brother, or an offence.
Non ergo amplius invicem iudicemus: sed hoc iudicate magis, ne ponatis offendiculum fratri, vel scandalum.
14 I have known, and am persuaded, in the Lord Jesus, that nothing [is] unclean of itself, except to him who is reckoning anything to be unclean — to that one [it is] unclean;
Scio, et confido in Domino Iesu, quia nihil commune per ipsum, nisi ei qui existimat quid commune esset, illi commune est.
15 and if through victuals thy brother is grieved, no more dost thou walk according to love; do not with thy victuals destroy that one for whom Christ died.
Si enim propter cibum frater tuus contristatur: iam non secundum charitatem ambulas. Noli cibo tuo illum perdere, pro quo Christus mortuus est.
16 Let not, then, your good be evil spoken of,
Non ergo blasphemetur bonum nostrum.
17 for the reign of God is not eating and drinking, but righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit;
Non est enim regnum Dei esca, et potus: sed iustitia, et pax, et gaudium in Spiritu sancto:
18 for he who in these things is serving the Christ, [is] acceptable to God and approved of men.
qui enim in hoc servit Christo, placet Deo, et probatus est hominibus.
19 So, then, the things of peace may we pursue, and the things of building up one another;
Itaque quæ pacis sunt, sectemur: et quæ ædificationis sunt, in invicem custodiamus.
20 for the sake of victuals cast not down the work of God; all things, indeed, [are] pure, but evil [is] to the man who is eating through stumbling.
Noli propter escam destruere opus Dei. omnia quidem sunt munda: sed malum est homini, qui per offendiculum manducat.
21 Right [it is] not to eat flesh, nor to drink wine, nor to [do anything] in which thy brother doth stumble, or is made to fall, or is weak.
Bonum est non manducare carnem, et non bibere vinum, neque in quo frater tuus offenditur, aut scandalizatur, aut infirmatur.
22 Thou hast faith! to thyself have [it] before God; happy is he who is not judging himself in what he doth approve,
Tu fidem habes? penes temetipsum habe coram Deo: Beatus, qui non iudicat semetipsum in eo, quod probat.
23 and he who is making a difference, if he may eat, hath been condemned, because [it is] not of faith; and all that [is] not of faith is sin.
Qui autem discernit, si manducaverit, damnatus est: quia non ex fide. Omne autem, quod non est ex fide, peccatum est.
