Do Not Pass Judgment on One Another

14 Now (A)accept the one who is (B)weak in faith, but not for the purpose of passing judgment on opinions. (C)One person has faith that he may eat all things, but he who is (D)weak eats vegetables only. The one who eats must not (E)view the one who does not eat with contempt, and the one who does not eat must not (F)judge the one who eats, for God (G)accepted him. (H)Who are you to judge the [a]servant of another? To his own [b]master he stands or falls; and he will stand, for the Lord is able to make him stand.

Before his own Lord he stands or falls. And he will stand, because the Lord is able[a] to make him stand.
