Rom 14
1 Tangnah aka vawtthoek te doe uh lamtah poeknah neh boelhkhoehnah te khueh boeh.
Receive anyone who is weak in faith, but not for the purpose of disputing about opinions.
2 Pakhat long ngawn tah boeih caak ham a tangnah. Tedae tattloel long tah toian a caak.
One person believes that he may eat anything, but he who is weak eats only vegetables.
3 Aka ca loh aka ca pawt te hnaelcoe boeh. Aka ca pawt long khaw aka ca te kamkaih boeh. Anih te khaw Pathen loh a doe coeng.
The one who eats must not despise the one who does not eat, and the one who does not eat must not judge the one who eats, for God has received him.
4 Nang tah metlam na om aih tih hlanglang kah imkhut te na coel? Anih te a boei hut la pai tih yalh ta. Tedae Boeipa loh anih te a thoh thai dongah pai ngawn ni ta.
Who are yoʋ to judge the servant of another? To his own master he stands or falls. And he will be made to stand, for God is able to make him stand.
5 Te dongah pakhat loh khohnin pakhat lakah khohnin pakhat te a poek. Tedae pakhat loh khohnin boeih he tanglue la a poek. Pakhat rhip loh amah lungbuei ah tangnah saeh.
One person considers one day to be more important than another, while another person considers every day to be alike. Each one should be fully convinced in his own mind.
6 Khohnin aka yaeh loh Boeipa ham a yaeh tih aka ca loh boeipa ham a caak dongah Pathen te a uem. Aka ca pawt long khaw Boeipa ham a caak pawt dongah Pathen te a uem.
He who observes a particular day, observes it in honor of the Lord, while he who abstains from observing a particular day, abstains in honor of the Lord. He who eats, eats in honor of the Lord, for he gives thanks to God, while he who abstains from eating, abstains in honor of the Lord, and he gives thanks to God.
7 Te dongah amah ham aka hing he mamih ah om pawt tih amah ham aka duek khaw om pawh.
For none of us lives for himself, and none of us dies for himself.
8 N'hing uh atah Boeipa ham n'hing uh tih n'duek uh atah Boeipa ham n'duek uh. Te dongah hing akhaw duek akhaw Boeipa kah hut la n'om uh.
If we live, we live for the Lord; and if we die, we die for the Lord. Therefore, whether we live or die, we belong to the Lord.
9 Te ham te Khrih duek tih hing coeng. Te daengah ni aka duek neh aka hing kah boei la bok a om eh.
For this reason Christ died and then rose and lived again, so that he might be Lord over both the dead and the living.
10 Te koinih nang tah balae tih na manuca te na kamkaih. Nang tah balae tih na manuca te na hnaelcoe. Mamih boeih tah Pathen kah ngolkhoel ah m'pai uh ni.
Yoʋ, then, why do yoʋ judge yoʋr brother? Or yoʋ, why do yoʋ despise yoʋr brother? For we will all stand before the judgment seat of Christ.
11 A daek vanbangla Boeipa loh, “Kai tah ka hing. Te dongah Hlang boeih loh kai taengah khuklu cungkueng saeh lamtah olka boeih loh Pathen ming te phong saeh,” a ti.
For it is written, “As I live, says the Lord, every knee will bow before me, and every tongue will give praise to God.”
12 Te dongah mamih khat rhip loh amah amah kah lannah te Pathen taengah a paek tangloeng ni.
So then, each of us will give an account of himself to God.
13 Te dongah khat neh khat soah laitloek uh thae boel sih. Tedae manuca taengah caehkoek neh thangkui khueh pawt ham he mah laitloek uh.
Therefore let us no longer judge one another. Instead, resolve not to put any stumbling block or snare before your brother.
14 Amah ah aka tanghnong he om pawh tila Boeipa Jesuh ah ka ngaitang tih ka ming dae khat khat loh mebang khaw tanghnong a ti atah anih ham tanghnong la om ni.
I know and am convinced in the Lord Jesus that nothing is unclean in and of itself, but it is unclean for anyone who considers it to be unclean.
15 Caak rhangneh na manuca te a khothet atah lungnah neh na caeh moenih. Anih ham aka duek Khrih te nang kah cakok neh na poci sak ham moenih.
If yoʋr brother is distressed by what yoʋ eat, yoʋ are no longer walking in love. Do not let what yoʋ eat destroy someone for whom Christ died.
16 Te dongah nangmih ham aka then tah soehsal boeh.
And do not let what you consider good to be spoken of as evil.
17 Pathen kah ram tah caak neh ook dongah pawt tih duengnah, rhoepnah, Mueihla Cim ah omngaihnah dongah ni a om.
For the kingdom of God is not a matter of eating and drinking, but of righteousness, peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit.
18 Te dongah he nen he Khrih kah sal aka bi tah Pathen ham kolonah neh hlang ham ueppang koi la om.
Anyone who serves Christ in these things is acceptable to God and approved by men.
19 Te dongah rhoepnah koi neh khat neh khat ham hlinsainah koi te hnuktlak uh tangloeng sih.
So then, let us pursue what brings about peace and mutual edification.
20 Caak ham dawk neh Pathen kah bibi te phae boeh. A cungkuem he caih ngawn dae caak rhangneh hlang ham caehkoek la a om te thae.
Do not tear down the work of God for the sake of food. Everything is indeed clean, but it is wrong for a person to eat anything that causes another to stumble.
21 Maeh caak pawt khaw, misurtui a ok ham pawt rhangneh na manuca loh a tongtah pawt te then.
It is good not to eat meat or drink wine or do anything by which yoʋr brother stumbles or is offended or made weak.
22 Nang namah loh tangnah na khueh te Pathen hmaiah khueh. Amah loh a soepsoei tangtae te lai aka tloek thil pawt tah a yoethen.
Do yoʋ have a firm belief about these things? Have it privately before God. Blessed is he who does not condemn himself by what he approves.
23 Tedae a boelhkhoeh tih a caak atah tangnah lamkah pawt dongah boe coeng. Te dongah tangnah lamkah pawt boeih te tah tholhnah ni.
But whoever doubts is condemned if he eats, because his action is not based on faith; and anything that is not based on faith is sin.
