Rimljanima 14
1 Slaboga u vjeri prigrlite, ali ne da se prepirete o mišljenjima.
Him that is weak in his faith, receive ye, —not for disputing opinions: —
2 Netko vjeruje da smije sve jesti, slabi opet jede samo povrće.
One, indeed, hath faith to eat all things, whereas, he that is weak, eateth herbs:
3 Tko jede, neka ne prezire onoga tko ne jede; tko pak ne jede, neka ne sudi onoga tko jede. Ta Bog ga je prigrlio.
Let not, him that eateth, despise him that eateth not, and let not, him that eateth not, judge him that eateth; for, God, hath received him.
4 Tko si ti da sudiš tuđega slugu? Svojemu Gospodaru i stoji i pada! A stajat će jer moćan je Gospodin da ga podrži.
Who art, thou, that judgest another’s domestic? To his own master, he standeth or falleth; he shall, however, be made to stand, —for his master is able to make him stand.
5 Netko razlikuje dan od dana, nekomu je opet svaki dan jednak. Samo nek je svatko posve uvjeren u svoje mišljenje.
[For], one, indeed esteemeth one day beyond another, whereas, another, esteemeth every day: —let, each one, in his own mind be fully persuaded.
6 Tko na dan misli, poradi Gospodina misli; i tko jede, poradi Gospodina jede: zahvaljuje Bogu. I tko ne jede, poradi Gospodina ne jede i - zahvaljuje Bogu.
He that regardeth the day, unto the Lord, regardeth it, —and, he that eateth, unto the Lord, doth eat, for he giveth thanks unto God; and, he that eateth not, unto the Lord, doth not eat and give God thanks.
7 Jer nitko od nas sebi ne živi, nitko sebi ne umire.
For, none of us, unto himself liveth, and, none, unto himself dieth;
8 Doista, ako živimo, Gospodinu živimo, i ako umiremo, Gospodinu umiremo. Živimo li dakle ili umiremo - Gospodinovi smo.
For both, if we live, unto the Lord, we live, and, if we die, unto the Lord, we die; whether therefore we live, the Lord’s, we are; or whether we die, the Lord’s, we are;
9 Ta Krist zato umrije i oživje da gospodar bude i mrtvima i živima.
For, to this end, Christ died and lived, in order that, both of dead and living, he might have lordship.
10 A ti, što sudiš brata svoga? Ili ti, što prezireš brata svoga? Ta svi ćemo stati pred sudište Božje.
But, thou, why dost thou judge thy brother? Aye! and thou, why dost thou despise thy brother? For, all of us, shall present ourselves unto the judgment seat of God;
11 Jer pisano je: Života mi moga, govori Gospodin, prignut će se preda mnom svako koljeno i svaki će jezik priznati Boga.
For it is written—Living am, I, saith the Lord, unto me, shall bow every knee, and, every tongue, shall openly confess unto God.
12 Svaki će dakle od nas za sebe Bogu dati račun.
Hence, [then], each one of us, of himself shall give account unto God.
13 Dakle, ne sudimo više jedan drugoga, nego radije sudite o tome da ne valja postavljati bratu stupice ili spoticala.
No longer, then, upon one another, let us be sitting in judgment, but, this, judge ye rather—not to be putting a cause of stumbling before your brother or an occasion to fall.
14 Znam i uvjeren sam u Gospodinu: ništa samo od sebe nije nečisto. Samo je onomu nečisto tko to smatra nečistim.
I know and am persuaded in the Lord Jesus—that, nothing, is profane of itself, —save to him who reckoneth anything to be profane, unto that man, [it is] profane,
15 Doista, ako je poradi hrane tvoj brat ražalošćen, već nisi na putu ljubavi. Ne upropašćuj tom svojom hranom onoga za koga je Krist umro!
If, in fact, because of food, thy brother is being grieved, no longer, by the rule of love, art thou walking: —do not, by thy food, that man, be destroying, on whose behalf Christ died!
16 Nemojte da se pogrđuje vaše dobro!
Therefore, suffer not to be defamed, your own good thing;
17 Ta kraljevstvo Božje nije jelo ili piće, nego pravednost, mir i radost u Duhu Svetome.
For the kingdom of God is not eating and drinking, but righteousness and peace and joy in Holy Spirit;
18 Da, tko tako Kristu služi, mio je Bogu i cijene ga ljudi.
For, he that in this doeth service unto the Christ, is acceptable unto God, and approved unto men.
19 Nastojmo stoga promicati mir i uzajamno izgrađivanje!
Hence, then, the things pertaining to peace, let us pursue, and the things which belong to the upbuilding one of another:
20 Ne razaraj djela Božjega poradi hrane! Sve je, istina, čisto, ali je zlo za onoga tko na sablazan jede.
Do not, for the sake of food, be throwing down the work of God! All things, indeed, are pure; but, ill, is it for the man who with occasion of stumbling doth eat, —
21 Dobro je ne jesti mesa i ne piti vina i ne uzimati ništa o što se tvoj brat spotiče.
Well, is it not to eat flesh nor to drink wine nor [to do aught] whereby thy brother is caused to stumble.
22 Ti imaš uvjerenje. Za sebe ga imaj pred Bogom. Blago onomu tko samoga sebe ne osuđuje u onom na što se odlučuje!
The faith which thou hast, have to thyself before God: happy, he that bringeth not judgment upon himself by that which he approveth;
23 Jede li tko dvoumeći, osudio se jer ne radi iz uvjerenja. A sve što nije iz uvjerenja, grijeh je.
But, he that is in doubt, if he eat, hath condemned himself, —because, [it was] not of faith, and, everything which is not of faith, is sin.
