¶ Him that is weak¹ in the faith receive² ye, but not to doubtful disputations³.

For one believeth that⁴ he may eat all things: another⁵, who is weak, eateth⁶ herbs.

Let not him that eateth despise⁷ him that eateth not; and let not him which eateth not judge⁸ him that eateth: for⁹ God hath received him.

Who¹⁰ art thou that judgest another man's servant? to his own master he standeth or falleth. Yea, he shall¹¹ be holden up: for¹² God is able to make him stand.

One man esteemeth¹³ one day above another: another esteemeth every day alike. Let¹⁴ every man be fully persuaded¹⁵ in his own mind.

He that regardeth¹⁶ the day, regardeth it¹⁷ 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, for¹⁸ he giveth God thanks; and he that eateth not, to the Lord he eateth not, and giveth God thanks.

¹⁹For none of us liveth to himself, and no man dieth to himself.

For whether we live, we live unto the Lord; and whether we die, we die unto²⁰ the Lord: whether we live therefore²¹, or die, we are the Lord's.

For to this end Christ²² both died, and rose, and revived, that he might be Lord²³ both of the dead and living.

¶ But why dost thou judge thy brother? or why dost thou set²⁴ at nought thy brother? for²⁵ we shall all stand before the judgment seat of Christ.

For it is written, As²⁶ I live, saith the Lord, every knee²⁷ shall bow to me, and every tongue shall confess²⁸ to God.

²⁹So then every one of us shall give account of himself to God.

Let us not therefore judge one³⁰ another any more: but³¹ judge this rather, that no man put³² a stumblingblock or³³ an occasion to fall in his brother's way.

I know, and am³⁴ persuaded by the Lord Jesus, that there³⁵ is nothing unclean³⁶ of itself: but to him that esteemeth any thing to be unclean, to him it³⁷ is unclean.

But if thy brother³⁸ be grieved with thy meat, now³⁹ walkest thou not charitably. Destroy not him with thy meat, for whom Christ died.

⁴¹Let not then your good be evil spoken of:

For the kingdom⁴² of God is⁴³ not meat and drink; but⁴⁴ righteousness, and peace⁴⁵, and joy in the Holy Ghost.

For he that in⁴⁶ these things serveth Christ is⁴⁷ acceptable to God, and⁴⁸ approved of men.

Let us therefore follow⁴⁹ after the things which make for peace, and⁵⁰ things wherewith one may edify another.

¶ For⁵¹ meat destroy not the work⁵² of God. All⁵³ things indeed are pure; but⁵⁴ it is evil for that man who eateth with offence.

It is good⁵⁵ neither to eat flesh, nor to drink wine, nor any thing whereby⁵⁶ thy brother stumbleth, or is offended, or is made weak.

Hast thou⁵⁷ faith? have it to thyself before God. Happy⁵⁸ is he that condemneth not himself in that thing which he alloweth.

And he that⁵⁹ doubteth⁶⁰ is damned⁶¹ if he eat, because he eateth not of faith: for whatsoever⁶² is not of faith is sin.
