| 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. |
