Romans 14 (WEBP)

[1] Now accept one who is weak in faith, but not for disputes over opinions.
[2] One man has faith to eat all things, but he who is weak eats only vegetables.
[3] Don’t let him who eats despise him who doesn’t eat. Don’t let him who doesn’t eat judge him who eats, for God has accepted him.
[4] Who are you who judge another’s servant? To his own lord he stands or falls. Yes, he will be made to stand, for God has power to make him stand.
[5] One man esteems one day as more important. Another esteems every day alike. Let each man be fully assured in his own mind.
[6] He who observes the day, observes it to the Lord; and he who does not observe the day, to the Lord he does not observe it. He who eats, eats to the Lord, for he gives God thanks. He who doesn’t eat, to the Lord he doesn’t eat, and gives God thanks.
[7] For none of us lives to himself, and none dies to himself.
[8] For if we live, we live to the Lord. Or if we die, we die to the Lord. If therefore we live or die, we are the Lord’s.
[9] For to this end Christ died, rose, and lived again, that he might be Lord of both the dead and the living.
[10] But you, why do you judge your brother? Or you again, why do you despise your brother? For we will all stand before the judgment seat of Christ.
[11] For it is written, “‘As I live,’ says the Lord, ‘to me every knee will bow. Every tongue will confess to God.’”
[12] So then each one of us will give account of himself to God.
[13] Therefore let’s not judge one another any more, but judge this rather, that no man put a stumbling block in his brother’s way, or an occasion for falling.
[14] I know and am persuaded in the Lord Jesus that nothing is unclean of itself; except that to him who considers anything to be unclean, to him it is unclean.
[15] Yet if because of food your brother is grieved, you walk no longer in love. Don’t destroy with your food him for whom Christ died.
[16] Then don’t let your good be slandered,
[17] for God’s Kingdom is not eating and drinking, but righteousness, peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit.
[18] For he who serves Christ in these things is acceptable to God and approved by men.
[19] So then, let’s follow after things which make for peace, and things by which we may build one another up.
[20] Don’t overthrow God’s work for food’s sake. All things indeed are clean, however it is evil for that man who creates a stumbling block by eating.
[21] It is good to not eat meat, drink wine, nor do anything by which your brother stumbles, is offended, or is made weak.
[22] Do you have faith? Have it to yourself before God. Happy is he who doesn’t judge himself in that which he approves.
[23] But he who doubts is condemned if he eats, because it isn’t of faith; and whatever is not of faith is sin.
[24] Now to him who is able to establish you according to my Good News and the preaching of Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of the mystery which has been kept secret through long ages,
[25] but now is revealed, and by the Scriptures of the prophets, according to the commandment of the eternal God, is made known for obedience of faith to all the nations;
[26] to the only wise God, through Jesus Christ, to whom be the glory forever! Amen.

Romans 14 (KJVS)

[1] Him that is weak () in the faith receive ye, () but not to doubtful disputations.
[2] For one believeth () that he may eat () all things: another, who is weak, () eateth () herbs.
[3] Let not him that eateth () despise () him that eateth () not; and let not him which eateth () not judge () him that eateth: () for God hath received () him.
[4] Who art () thou that judgest () another man’s servant? to his own master he standeth () or falleth. () Yea, he shall be holden up: () for God is () able to make him stand. ()
[5] One man esteemeth () one day above another: another esteemeth () every day alike. Let every man be fully persuaded () in his own mind.
[6] He that regardeth () the day, regardeth () it unto the Lord; and he that regardeth () not the day, to the Lord he doth not regard () it. He that eateth, () eateth () to the Lord, for he giveth God thanks; () and he that eateth () not, to the Lord he eateth () not, and giveth God thanks. ()
[7] For none of us liveth () to himself, and no man dieth () to himself.
[8] For whether we live, () we live () unto the Lord; and whether we die, () we die () unto the Lord: whether we live () therefore, or die, () we are () the Lord’s.
[9] For to this end Christ both died, () and rose, () and revived, () that he might be Lord () both of the dead and living. ()
[10] But why dost thou judge () thy brother? or why dost thou set at nought () thy brother? for we shall all stand before () the judgment seat of Christ.
[11] For it is written, () As I live, () saith () the Lord, every knee shall bow () to me, And every tongue shall confess () to God.
[12] So then every one of us shall give () account of himself to God.
[13] Let us not therefore judge () one another any more: but judge () this rather, that no man put () a stumblingblock or an occasion to fall in his brother’s way.
[14] I know, () and am persuaded () by the Lord Jesus, that there is nothing unclean of itself: but to him that esteemeth () any thing to be () unclean, to him it is unclean.
[15] But if thy brother be grieved () with thy meat, now walkest thou () not charitably. Destroy () not him with thy meat, for whom Christ died. ()
[16] Let not then your good be evil spoken of: ()
[17] for the kingdom of God is () not meat and drink; but righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost.
[18] For he that in these things serveth () Christ is acceptable to God, and approved of men.
[19] Let us therefore follow after () the things which make for peace, and things wherewith one may edify another.
[20] For meat destroy () not the work of God. All things indeed are pure; but it is evil for that man who eateth () with offence.
[21] It is good neither to eat () flesh, nor to drink () wine, nor any thing whereby thy brother stumbleth, () or is offended, () or is made weak. ()
[22] Hast () thou faith? have () it to thyself before God. Happy is he that condemneth () not himself in that thing which he alloweth. ()
[23] And he that doubteth () is damned () if he eat, () because he eateth not of faith: for whatsoever is not of faith is () sin.
