14 ¶ Se pou n' resevwa moun ki fèb nan konfyans yo byen san nou pa bezwen diskite openyon yo genyen.

Men yon egzanp: Gen moun ki kwè li kapab manje tout bagay; gen lòt ki fèb nan konfyans yo epi ki manje legim ase.

Moun ki manje tout manje pa fèt pou meprize moun ki pa manje tout manje. Konsa tou, moun ki pa manje tout manje pa fèt pou jije moun ki manje tout manje, paske Bondye asepte ni yonn ni lòt jan yo ye a.

Ki moun ou ye konsa pou w'ap jije domestik lòt moun? Kit domestik la kenbe fèm nan sèvis la, kit li tonbe, sa se zafè ki gade mèt li ase. Men, pa pè, li gen pou l' kenbe fèm, paske Seyè a gen pouvwa pou l' soutni li.

M'ap pran yon lòt egzanp: Gen moun ki kwè gen jou ki pi konsekan pase lòt. Gen lòt ki di tout jou se menm. Se pou chak moun gen konviksyon pa yo.

Moun ki kwè yon jou pi konsekan pase lòt, li fè sa pa respè pou Mèt la menm jan ak moun ki manje tout manje a, li fè sa pa respè pou Mèt la paske li di Bondye mèsi pou manje a. Moun ki pa manje tout manje a, li fè sa tou pa respè pou Mèt la, paske li menm tou, li di Bondye mèsi.

Se konsa, pa gen yon sèl moun nan nou k'ap viv pou tèt pa li. Pa gen yonn nan nou tou k'ap mouri pou tèt pa li. Paske si n'ap viv, n'ap viv pou Seyè a,

si n'ap mouri, n'ap mouri pou Seyè a tou. Konsa, kit nou vivan, kit nou mouri, se pou Seyè a nou ye.

Paske, Kris la te mouri, apre sa li leve soti vivan ankò pou l' te kapab Mèt tout moun, ni moun vivan yo ni moun mouri yo.

10 Men ou menm, pouki pou w'ap jije frè ou konsa? Ou menm, pouki pou w'ap meprize frè ou konsa? Nou tout gen pou konparèt devan tribinal Bondye a.

11 Paske men sa ki ekri nan Liv la: Mèt la di: Jan nou konnen mwen vivan an vre, konsa tou, tout moun gen pou mete ajenou devan mwen. Nan tout lang moun va pale byen fò pou rekonèt pouvwa Bondye.

12 Se konsa, chak moun gen pou rann Bondye kont pou tèt pa yo.

13 Ann sispann yonn ap jije lòt. Pito nou pran desizyon pou n' pa fè anyen ki kapab fè frè nou bite osinon tonbe nan peche.

14 Paske, mwen menm k'ap viv ansanm avèk Seyè Jezi a, mwen sèten pa gen anyen nan sa yo di ki pa bon pou moun k'ap sèvi Bondye ki soti tou konsa nan men Bondye. Si yon moun kwè yon bagay pa bon pou moun k'ap sèvi Bondye, bagay la pa bon pou li paske li mete sa nan tèt li.

15 Si ou fè frè ou lapenn pou tèt yon manje ou manje, ou pa gen renmen nan kè ou pou frè ou. Piga ou kite manje w'ap manje a lakòz yon frè pèdi sou kont ou, paske li menm Kris la te mouri pou l' te ka sove l' tou.

16 Sa ki byen pou ou pa dwe yon okazyon pou fè yo pale ou mal.

17 Gouvènman Bondye ki wa a, se pa yon afè manje ak bwè, men se yon keksyon fè sa ki byen, viv ak kè poze ak kè kontan. Bagay sa yo, se Sentespri ki bay yo.

18 Moun k'ap sèvi Kris la konsa, se yo ki fè Bondye plezi. Tout moun ap dakò ak sa.

19 Se sak fè, ann toujou chache bagay ki kapab ede nou viv ak kè poze, bagay ki pou penmèt nou yonn soutni lòt nan konfyans nou nan Bondye.

20 Piga kraze travay Bondye a poutèt yon keksyon manje. Nou ka manje tout manje, se vre. Men, sa pa bon pou nou manje kichòy ki ka lakòz yon frè tonbe nan peche.

21 Sa ki byen an, se lè ou pa manje vyann, ni bwè diven, ni fè okenn lòt bagay ki kapab fè frè ou tonbe nan peche.

22 Sa ou kwè ou menm sou sa, gade l' pou tèt ou devan Bondye. benediksyon pou yon moun ki pa santi l' koupab lè l'ap fè sa li kwè li dwe fè.

23 Men, moun ki gen doutans sou sa l'ap manje a, Bondye kondannen l' lè l' manje l', paske li aji san konviksyon. Tout sa ou fè san konviksyon se peche.

The Weak and the Strong

14 Accept the one whose faith is weak,(A) without quarreling over disputable matters. One person’s faith allows them to eat anything, but another, whose faith is weak, eats only vegetables.(B) The one who eats everything must not treat with contempt(C) the one who does not, and the one who does not eat everything must not judge(D) the one who does, for God has accepted them. Who are you to judge someone else’s servant?(E) To their own master, servants stand or fall. And they will stand, for the Lord is able to make them stand.

One person considers one day more sacred than another;(F) another considers every day alike. Each of them should be fully convinced in their own mind. Whoever regards one day as special does so to the Lord. Whoever eats meat does so to the Lord, for they give thanks to God;(G) and whoever abstains does so to the Lord and gives thanks to God. For none of us lives for ourselves alone,(H) and none of us dies for ourselves alone. If we live, we live for the Lord; and if we die, we die for the Lord. So, whether we live or die, we belong to the Lord.(I) For this very reason, Christ died and returned to life(J) so that he might be the Lord of both the dead and the living.(K)

10 You, then, why do you judge your brother or sister[a]? Or why do you treat them with contempt?(L) For we will all stand before God’s judgment seat.(M) 11 It is written:

“‘As surely as I live,’(N) says the Lord,
‘every knee will bow before me;
    every tongue will acknowledge God.’”[b](O)

12 So then, each of us will give an account of ourselves to God.(P)

13 Therefore let us stop passing judgment(Q) on one another. Instead, make up your mind not to put any stumbling block or obstacle in the way of a brother or sister.(R) 14 I am convinced, being fully persuaded in the Lord Jesus, that nothing is unclean in itself.(S) But if anyone regards something as unclean, then for that person it is unclean.(T) 15 If your brother or sister is distressed because of what you eat, you are no longer acting in love.(U) Do not by your eating destroy someone for whom Christ died.(V) 16 Therefore do not let what you know is good be spoken of as evil.(W) 17 For the kingdom of God is not a matter of eating and drinking,(X) but of righteousness, peace(Y) and joy in the Holy Spirit,(Z) 18 because anyone who serves Christ in this way is pleasing to God and receives human approval.(AA)

19 Let us therefore make every effort to do what leads to peace(AB) and to mutual edification.(AC) 20 Do not destroy the work of God for the sake of food.(AD) All food is clean,(AE) but it is wrong for a person to eat anything that causes someone else to stumble.(AF) 21 It is better not to eat meat or drink wine or to do anything else that will cause your brother or sister to fall.(AG)

22 So whatever you believe about these things keep between yourself and God. Blessed is the one who does not condemn(AH) himself by what he approves. 23 But whoever has doubts(AI) is condemned if they eat, because their eating is not from faith; and everything that does not come from faith is sin.[c]
