- 1. Now him that is weak in the faith receive, not to [the] determining of questions of reasoning.
- 2. One man is assured that he may eat all things; but the weak eats herbs.
- 3. Let not him that eats make little of him that eats not; and let not him that eats not judge him that eats: for God has received him.
- 4. Who art *thou* that judgest the servant of another? to his own master he stands or falls. And he shall be made to stand; for the Lord is able to make him stand.
- 5. One man esteems day more than day; another esteems every day [alike]. Let each be fully persuaded in his own mind.
- 6. He that regards the day, regards it to [the] Lord. And he that eats, eats to [the] Lord, for he gives God thanks; and he that does not eat, [it is] to [the] Lord he does not eat, and gives God thanks.
- 7. For none of us lives to himself, and none dies to himself.
- 8. For both if we should live, [it is] to the Lord we live; and if we should die, [it is] to the Lord we die: both if we should live then, and if we should die, we are the Lord's.
- 9. For to this [end] Christ has died and lived [again], that he might rule over both dead and living.
- 10. But thou, why judgest thou thy brother? or again, thou, why dost thou make little of thy brother? for we shall all be placed before the judgment-seat of God.
- 11. For it is written, *I* live, saith [the] Lord, that to me shall bow every knee, and every tongue shall confess to God.
- 12. So then each of us shall give an account concerning himself to God.
- 13. Let us no longer therefore judge one another; but judge ye this rather, not to put a stumbling-block or a fall-trap before his brother.
- 14. I know, and am persuaded in the Lord Jesus, that nothing is unclean of itself; except to him who reckons anything to be unclean, to that man [it is] unclean.
- 15. For if on account of meat thy brother is grieved, thou walkest no longer according to love. Destroy not him with thy meat for whom Christ has died.
- 16. Let not then your good be evil spoken of;
- 17. for the kingdom of God is not eating and drinking, but righteousness, and peace, and joy in [the] Holy Spirit.
- 18. For he that in this serves the Christ [is] acceptable to God and approved of men.
- 19. So then let us pursue the things which tend to peace, and things whereby one shall build up another.
- 20. For the sake of meat do not destroy the work of God. All things indeed [are] pure; but [it is] evil to that man who eats while stumbling [in doing so].
- 21. [It is] right not to eat meat, nor drink wine, nor [do anything] in which thy brother stumbles, or is offended, or is weak.
- 22. Hast *thou* faith? have [it] to thyself before God. Blessed [is] he who does not judge himself in what he allows.
- 23. But he that doubts, if he eat, is condemned; because [it is] not of faith; but whatever [is] not of faith is sin.
