Romans 14:5-9
Amplified Bible
5 One person regards one day as better [or more important] than another, while another regards every day [the same as any other]. Let everyone be fully convinced (assured, satisfied) in his own mind. 6 He who observes the day, observes it for the Lord. He who eats, eats for the Lord, since he gives thanks to God; while he who abstains, abstains for the Lord and gives thanks to God. 7 None of us lives for himself [for his own benefit, but for the Lord], and none of us dies for himself [but for the Lord]. 8 If we live, we live for the Lord, and if we die, we die for the Lord. So then, whether we live or die, we are the Lord’s. 9 For Christ died and lived again for this reason, that He might be Lord of both the dead and the living.

Romans 14:5-9
New American Standard Bible
5 (A)One person [a]values one day over another, another [b]values every day the same. Each person must be (B)fully convinced in his own mind. 6 The one who observes the day, observes it for the Lord, and the one who eats, [c]does so with regard to the Lord, for he (C)gives thanks to God; and the one who does not eat, it is for the Lord that he does not eat, and he gives thanks to God. 7 For not one of us (D)lives for himself, and not one dies for himself; 8 for if we live, we live for the Lord, or if we die, we die for the Lord; therefore (E)whether we live or die, we are the Lord’s. 9 For to this end (F)Christ died and lived again, that He might be (G)Lord both of the dead and of the living.
