14:1
But to him who is weak in the faith give the hand, and be not divided in your thoughts. |
|
14:1
To him who is feeble in the faith, reach forth the hand. And be not divided in your thoughts. |
14:2
For there are some who believe that one may eat every thing, and he who is weak; eateth (only) the herb. |
|
14:2
For one man believeth, that he may eat every thing: and he that is feeble, eateth herbs. |
14:3
But let not him who eateth despise him who eateth not; and he who eateth not, let him not judge him who eateth; for Aloha hath received him. |
|
14:3
And he that eateth, should not despise him that eateth not; and he that eateth not, should not judge him that eateth, for God hath received him. |
14:4
Who art thou that judgest a servant who is not thine? who, if he stand, unto his Lord he standeth, and if he fall, falleth unto his Lord. But standing, he standeth; for there is power in the hands of his Lord to make him stand. |
|
14:4
Who art thou, that thou judgest a servant not thine; and who, if he standeth, he standeth to his Lord; and if he falleth, he falleth to his Lord? But he will assuredly stand; for his Lord hath power to establish him. |
14:5
There is who distinguisheth day from day, and there is who judgeth all days (to be alike); but let every man in the conviction of his (own) mind be confirmed. |
|
14:5
One man discriminateth between days; and another judgeth all days alike. But let every one be sure, in regard to his knowledge. |
14:6
He who thinketh of the day, to his Lord he thinketh; and every one who thinketh not of the day, unto his Lord he thinketh not (of it). He who eateth, to his Lord he eateth, and to Aloha giveth thanks; and he who eateth not, to his Lord he eateth not, and giveth thanks to Aloha. |
|
14:6
He that esteemeth a day, esteemeth [it] for his Lord: and he that esteemeth not a day, for his Lord, he doth not esteem [it.] And he that eateth, eateth to his Lord, and giveth thanks to God: and he that eateth not, to his Lord he eateth not, and giveth thanks to God. |
14:7
For there is no one of us who to himself liveth and no one who to himself dieth. |
|
14:7
For there is not one of us, who liveth for himself: and there is not one, who dieth for himself. |
14:8
For if we live, to our Lord we live; and if we die, to our Lord we die: and if we live, then, or if we die, our Lord's are we. |
|
14:8
Because, if we live, to our Lord it is we live; or if we die, to our Lord it is we die. Whether we live, therefore, or whether we die, we are our Lord's. |
14:9
Because of this also the Meshiha died and lived and arose, that he might be Lord of the dead and of the living. |
|
14:9
Moreover, for this cause Messiah died, and revived, and arose; that he might be Lord of the dead and of the living. |
14:10
But thou, why dost thou judge thy brother? Or thou, also, why despisest thou thy brother? For we shall all stand before the tribunal of the Meshiha: |
|
14:10
But thou, why dost thou judge thy brother? or, why dost thou despise thy brother? For we must all stand before the judgment seat of Messiah, |
14:11
as it is written, As I live, saith the Lord, unto me every knee shall bow, and to me shall every tongue confess. |
|
14:11
as it is written: As I live, saith the Lord, to me every knee shall bow; and to me every tongue shall give praise. |
14:12
Therefore, every one of us the answer for himself shall give unto Aloha. |
|
14:12
So then, every one of us must give account of himself to God. |
14:13
Then judge not one another, but this determine rather, to lay not a stumbling-block for thy brother. |
|
14:13
Henceforth, judge ye not one another; but rather, judge ye this, that thou erect not a stumbling-block for thy brother. |
14:14
For I know, and am persuaded in the Lord Jeshu, that a thing which is unclean from itself is not (so); but to him who judgeth of any thing that it is polluted, to him only it is polluted. |
|
14:14
I know indeed, and am persuaded by the Lord Jesus, that there is nothing which is unclean in itself; but to him who thinketh any thing to be unclean, to him only it is defiled. |
14:15
But if on account of meat thou grievest thy brother, thou walkest not in love: destroy not by thy meat him on account of whom the Meshiha died. |
|
14:15
But if thou grievest thy brother, because of food, thou walkest not in love. On account of food, destroy not him for whom Messiah died. |
14:16
Let not our good (things) be blasphemed. |
|
14:16
And let not our good thing be matter of reproach. |
14:17
For the kingdom of Aloha is not meat and drink, but righteousness and peace and joy in the Spirit of Holiness. |
|
14:17
For the kingdom of God, is not food and drink; but is righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit. |
14:18
For who in these things serveth the Meshiha pleaseth Aloha, and before men is approved. |
|
14:18
For he who is in these things a servant of Messiah, is pleasing to God, and approved before men. |
14:19
Now, after peace let us pursue, and after the edification of one another, |
|
14:19
Now let us strive after peace, and after the edification of one another. |
14:20
and not for the sake of meats undo the work of Aloha. For each thing is pure, yet evil is it to the man who eateth with offence. |
|
14:20
And let us not, on account of food, destroy the work of God. For every thing is, [indeed,] pure; yet it is evil, to the man who eateth with stumbling. |
14:21
It is well not to eat flesh, nor to drink wine, nor any thing by which our brother is offended. |
|
14:21
It is proper, that we neither eat flesh, nor drink wine, nor [do] any thing, whereby our brother is stumbled. |
14:22
Hast thou confidence? In thyself retain it before Aloha. Blessed is he who condemneth not himself in what he distinguisheth. |
|
14:22
Thou art one in whom there is faith; keep it to thyself, before God. Blessed is he, who doth not condemn himself, in that thing which he alloweth. |
14:23
For he who doubteth and eateth is made guilty, because he eateth not with confidence. For every thing that is not of confidence is sin. |
|
14:23
For he who eateth and doubteth, is condemned; because [he eateth] not in faith. For every thing which is not of faith, is sin. |
