1 And receive the [one] being weak in the faith, not to determinations of reasonings. VP
2 Indeed, one believes to eat all things, but the [one] being weak eats vegetables. VP
3 The [one] eating, let him not despise the [one] not eating; and the [one] not eating, let him not judge the [one] eating, for God received him. VP
4 Who are you, judging another’s servant? To [his] own master he stands or falls. And he will be made to stand, for the Lord is able to make him stand. VP
5 For indeed, one judges a day above a day, but one judges every day [alike]. Let each be fully assured in [his] own mind. VP
6 The [one] regarding the day regards [it] to [the] Lord; the [one] eating eats to [the] Lord, for he gives thanks to God; and the [one] not eating does not eat to [the] Lord, and he gives thanks to God. VP
7 For none of us lives to himself, and none dies to himself. VP
8 For both if we should live, we live to the Lord, and if we should die, we die to the Lord. Therefore both if we should live and if we should die, we are the Lord’s. VP
9 For unto this Christ died and lived again, that He might be Lord over both [the] dead and [the] living. VP
10 But why do you judge your brother? Or why also do you despise your brother? For we will all stand before the judgment seat of God. VP
11 For it has been written: “[As] I live, says [the] Lord, every knee will bow to Me, and every tongue will confess to God.” VP
12 So then, each of us will give account concerning himself to God. VP
13 May we no longer, therefore, judge one another; but rather you⁺ decide this: not to put a stumbling block or obstacle before a brother. VP
14 I know and I am persuaded in [the] Lord Jesus that nothing [is] unclean of itself, except to the [one] reckoning anything to be unclean—to that one [it is] unclean. VP
15 For if because of food your brother is grieved, no longer do you walk according to love. Do not destroy with your food that one for whom Christ died. VP
16 Therefore do not let your⁺ good be spoken of as evil. VP
17 For the kingdom of God is not eating and drinking, but righteousness and peace and joy in [the] Holy Spirit. VP
18 For the [one] serving Christ in this [is] well-pleasing to God and approved by men. VP
19 So then, may we pursue the [things] of peace, and the [things] of building up one another. VP
20 Do not demolish the work of God for the sake of food. All things indeed [are] clean, but [it is] evil to the man eating through a stumbling block. VP
21 [It is] good not to eat meat nor to drink wine nor [to do anything] in which your brother stumbles. VP
22 [The] faith that you have, have [it] to yourself before God. Blessed [is] the [one] not judging himself in what he approves. VP
23 But the [one] doubting has been condemned if he eats, because [it is] not of faith; and everything that [is] not of faith is sin. VP
