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.

Romans 14:5-9
Revised Standard Version
5 One man esteems one day as better than another, while another man esteems all days alike. Let every one be fully convinced in his own mind. 6 He who observes the day, observes it in honor of the Lord. He also who eats, eats in honor of the Lord, since he gives thanks to God; while he who abstains, abstains in honor of the Lord and gives thanks to God. 7 None of us lives to himself, and none of us dies to himself. 8 If we live, we live to the Lord, and if we die, we die to the Lord; so then, whether we live or whether we die, we are the Lord’s. 9 For to this end Christ died and lived again, that he might be Lord both of the dead and of the living.
