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.
1 你们要接纳信心软弱的人, 不要论断引起争论的事。
2 有人相信所有的食物都可以吃, 信心软弱的人却只吃蔬菜。
3 吃的人不要轻看不吃的人, 不吃的人也不要批评吃的人, 因为 神已经接纳他了。
4 你是谁, 竟然批评别人的家仆呢?他或站稳或跌倒, 只和自己的主人有关; 但他必定站稳, 因为主能够使他站稳。
5 有人认为这日比那日好, 也有人认为日日都是一样; 只要各人自己心意坚定就可以了。
6 守日的人是为主守的, 吃的人是为主吃的, 因为他感谢 神; 不吃的人是为主不吃, 他也感谢 神。
7 我们没有一个人为自己活, 也没有一个人为自己死。我们若活着, 是为主而活;
8 我们若死了, 是为主而死。所以, 我们无论活着或是死了, 总是属于主的人。
9 为了这缘故, 基督死了, 又活过来, 就是要作死人和活人的主。
10 这样, 你为什么批评你的弟兄呢?为什么又轻看你的弟兄呢?我们都要站在 神的审判台前;
11 因为经上记着: "主说, 我指着我的永生起誓: 万膝必向我跪拜, 万口必称颂 神。"
12 这样看来, 我们各人都要把自己的事向 神交代。
13 所以, 我们不要再彼此批评了; 倒要立定主意, 决不作绊倒弟兄或使他跌倒的事。
14 我知道, 并且在主耶稣里深信, 没有一样东西的本身是不洁的, 但如果有人认为是不洁的, 对他来说那东西就成为不洁了。
15 如果你为了食物使你的弟兄忧愁, 你就不再是凭着爱心行事了。你不可因着你的食物, 使基督已经替他死了的人灭亡。
16 所以, 不可使你们看为好的被人毁谤;
17 因为 神的国不在于吃喝, 而在于公义、和睦, 以及圣灵里的喜乐。
18 这样服事基督的人, 必蒙 神喜悦, 又得众人嘉许。
19 所以, 我们总要追求和睦的事, 与彼此造就的事。
20 不可因食物的缘故拆毁 神的工作。一切都是洁净的, 但人若因食物绊倒弟兄, 对他来说, 这就是恶事了。
21 无论是吃肉, 是喝酒, 或是什么使你的弟兄跌倒的事, 一律不要作才好。
22 你所信的, 你自己要在 神面前持守。人在经自己考验后认可的事上能够不自责, 他就有福了。
23 但如果有人存着疑惑的心去吃, 他就被定罪了, 因为他不是出于信心。凡不是出于信心的, 都是罪。
