Romans 14
1 Now him that is weak in the faith receive, not to [the] determining of questions of reasoning.
Tistega, ki je v veri slaboten, sprejmite, toda ne k dvomljivim pričkanjem.
2 One man is assured that he may eat all things; but the weak eats herbs.
Kajti nekdo veruje, da lahko jé vse stvari; drug, ki je šibek, jé zelišča.
3 Let not him that eats make little of him that eats not; and let not him that eats not judge him that eats: for God has received him.
Naj tisti, ki jé, ne prezira tistega, ki ne jé; in kdor ne jé, naj ne sodi tistega, ki jé; kajti Bog ga je sprejel.
4 Who art thou that judgest the servant of another? to his own master he stands or falls. And he shall be made to stand; for the Lord is able to make him stand.
Kdo si ti, da sodiš služabnika drugega moža? Svojemu lastnemu gospodarju stoji ali pade. Da, obdržan bo pokonci; kajti Bog ga je zmožen postaviti pokonci.
5 One man esteems day more than day; another esteems every day [alike]. Let each be fully persuaded in his own mind.
Nek človek čisla en dan nad drugim, drugi čisla vsak dan enako. Naj bo vsak v svojem lastnem mišljenju popolnoma prepričan.
6 He that regards the day, regards it to [the] Lord. And he that eats, eats to [the] Lord, for he gives God thanks; and he that does not eat, [it is] to [the] Lord he does not eat, and gives God thanks.
Kdor upošteva dan, ga upošteva za Gospoda; kdor pa dneva ne upošteva, ga ne upošteva Gospodu. Kdor jé, jé za Gospoda, kajti zahvale daje Bogu; kdor pa ne jé, ne jé Gospodu in zahvalo daje Bogu.
7 For none of us lives to himself, and none dies to himself.
Kajti nihče izmed nas ne živi zase in noben človek ne umira zase.
8 For both if we should live, [it is] to the Lord we live; and if we should die, [it is] to the Lord we die: both if we should live then, and if we should die, we are the Lord's.
Kajti če živimo, živimo za Gospoda; in če umremo, umremo za Gospoda. Če torej živimo ali umremo, smo Gospodovi.
9 For to this [end] Christ has died and lived [again], that he might rule over both dead and living.
Kajti zato je Kristus tako umrl kakor vstal in oživel, da bi bil lahko Gospod tako mrtvih kakor živih.
10 But thou, why judgest thou thy brother? or again, thou, why dost thou make little of thy brother? for we shall all be placed before the judgment-seat of God.
Toda zakaj sodiš svojega brata? Ali zakaj zasmehuješ svojega brata? Kajti vsi bomo stali pred Kristusovim sodnim stolom.
11 For it is written, I live, saith [the] Lord, that to me shall bow every knee, and every tongue shall confess to God.
Kajti pisano je: ›Kakor jaz živim, govori Gospod, bo vsako koleno pokleknilo k meni in vsak jezik bo priznal Boga.‹
12 So then each of us shall give an account concerning himself to God.
Tako bo potem vsak izmed nas Bogu dal obračun o sebi.
13 Let us no longer therefore judge one another; but judge ye this rather, not to put a stumbling-block or a fall-trap before his brother.
Torej ne sodimo več drug drugega, temveč raje sodimo to, da noben človek ne postavi kamna spotike ali priložnosti, da pade, na pot svojega brata.
14 I know, and am persuaded in the Lord Jesus, that nothing is unclean of itself; except to him who reckons anything to be unclean, to that man [it is] unclean.
Vem in po Gospodu Jezusu sem prepričan, da ni nič sámo po sebi nečisto; toda temu, ki mêni, da je karkoli nečisto, je to zanj nečisto.
15 For if on account of meat thy brother is grieved, thou walkest no longer according to love. Destroy not him with thy meat for whom Christ has died.
Toda če je tvoj brat užaloščen s tvojo jedjo, torej ne živiš v ljubezni. S svojo jedjo ne uničuj tega, za kogar je Kristus umrl.
16 Let not then your good be evil spoken of;
Naj se potem o vašem dobrem ne govori zlo,
17 for the kingdom of God is not eating and drinking, but righteousness, and peace, and joy in [the] Holy Spirit.
kajti Božje kraljestvo ni hrana in pijača, temveč pravičnost in mir in radost v Svetem Duhu.
18 For he that in this serves the Christ [is] acceptable to God and approved of men.
Kajti kdor v teh stvareh služi Kristusu, je sprejemljiv za Boga in potrjen od ljudi.
19 So then let us pursue the things which tend to peace, and things whereby one shall build up another.
Prizadevajmo si torej za stvari, ki delajo za mir in za stvari, s katerimi lahko eden izgrajuje drugega.
20 For the sake of meat do not destroy the work of God. All things indeed [are] pure; but [it is] evil to that man who eats while stumbling [in doing so].
Zaradi hrane ne uničuj Božjega dela. Vse stvari so zares čiste; toda zlo je za tistega človeka, ki jé s spotiko.
21 [It is] right not to eat meat, nor drink wine, nor [do anything] in which thy brother stumbles, or is offended, or is weak.
Dobro je ne jesti mesa niti piti vina niti katerekoli stvari, s čimer se tvoj brat spotika ali je užaljen ali je postal slaboten.
22 Hast thou faith? have [it] to thyself before God. Blessed [is] he who does not judge himself in what he allows.
Imaš vero? Imej jo zase pred Bogom. Srečen je, kdor sebe ne obsoja v tej stvari, ki jo on dopušča.
23 But he that doubts, if he eat, is condemned; because [it is] not of faith; but whatever [is] not of faith is sin.
Kdor pa dvomi, je obsojen če jé, ker ne jé iz vere; kajti karkoli ni iz vere, je greh.
