< Romans 14 >
1 And receive him who is weak in the faith—not to determinations of reasonings;
बहसहरूको बारेमा न्याय नगरीकनै विश्वासमा कमजोर हुनेलाई ग्रहण गर ।
2 one believes that he may eat all things—and he who is weak eats herbs;
एक जनासँग कुनै पनि थोक खाने विश्वास हुन्छ, अर्को जो कमजोर छ, त्यसले सागसब्जी मात्र खान्छ ।
3 do not let him who is eating despise him who is not eating: and do not let him who is not eating judge him who is eating, for God received him.
सबै थोक खानेले सबै थोक नखानेलाई घृणा नगरोस् । अनि सबै थोक नखानेले सबै थोक खानेको न्याय नगरोस् । किनकि उसलाई परमेश्वरले ग्रहण गर्नुभएको छ ।
4 You—who are you that are judging another’s domestic [affairs]? To his own master he stands or falls; and he will be made to stand, for God is able to make him stand.
अरूको नोकरको न्याय गर्ने तिमी को हौ? यो त्यसको मालिकको सामु नै खडा हुन्छ वा पतन हुन्छ । तर त्यसलाई खडा गराइनेछ, किनकि प्रभु त्यसलाई खडा गराउन सक्षम हुनुहुन्छ ।
5 One judges one day above another, and another judges every day [alike]; let each be fully assured in his own mind.
एक जनाले कुनै दिनलाई अर्कोभन्दा मूल्यको मान्छ । अर्कोले हरेक दिनलाई समान रूपमा लिन्छ । हेरक आ-आफ्नै मनमा विश्वस्त होस् ।
6 He who is regarding the day, he regards [it] to the LORD, and he who is not regarding the day, he does not regard [it] to the LORD. He who is eating, he eats to the LORD, for he gives thanks to God; and he who is not eating, he does not eat to the LORD, and gives thanks to God.
जसले कुनै दिन पालन गर्छ, त्यसले प्रभुकै निम्ति पालन गर्छ, र जसले खान्छ, त्यसले प्रभुकै निम्ति खान्छ, किनकि त्यसले परमप्रभुलाई धन्यवाद दिन्छ । जसले खाँदैन, त्यसले प्रभुकै निम्ति खानबाट आफूलाई रोक्छ ।
7 For none of us lives to himself, and none dies to himself;
किनकि हामी कोही पनि आफ्नै लागि जिउँदैनौँ र कोही पनि आफ्नै निम्ति मर्दैनौँ ।
8 for both, if we may live, we live to the LORD; if also we may die, we die to the LORD; both then if we may live, also if we may die, we are the LORD’s;
किनकि यदि हामी जिउँछौँ भने, प्रभुकै निम्ति जिउँछौँ र यदि हामी मर्छौं भने, हामी प्रभुकै निम्ति मर्छौं । त्यसैले, हामी चाहे जिऔँ वा मरौँ, हामी प्रभुकै हौँ ।
9 for because of this Christ both died and rose again, and lived again, that He may be Lord both of dead and of living.
यही उद्देश्यको निम्ति ख्रीष्ट मर्नुभयो र फेरि जीवित हुनुभयो, ताकि उहाँ मरेका र जीवितहरू दुवैका प्रभु हुन सक्नुभएको होस् ।
10 And you, why do you judge your brother? Or again, you, why do you set at nothing your brother? For we will all stand at the judgment seat of the Christ;
तर तिमीहरू किन आफ्नो भाइको न्याय गर्छौ? अनि तिमी किन आफ्नो भाइलाई तुच्छ ठान्छौ? किनकि हामी सबै परमेश्वरको न्याय आसनको सामु खडा हुनेछौँ ।
11 for it has been written: “I live! Says the LORD—Every knee will bow to Me, and every tongue will confess to God”;
किनकि यस्तो लेखिएको छ, परमप्रभु भन्नुहुन्छ, “जस्तो म जीवित छु, मेरो निम्ति हरेक घुँडा टेक्नेछ र हरेक जिब्रोले परमप्रभुको प्रशंसा गर्नेछ ।”
12 so, then, each of us will give reckoning to God concerning himself;
यसैले, हामी हरेकले परमेश्वर स्वयम्लाई लेखा दिनुपर्नेछ ।
13 therefore, may we judge one another no longer, but rather judge this, not to put a stumbling-stone before the brother, or an offense.
यसकारण, एक-अर्काको न्याय नगरौँ, तर बरु, यो अठोट गरौँ, कि हामी कसैले आफ्नो भाइको निम्ति ठेस लाग्ने थोक वा पासो राख्नेछैनौँ ।
14 I have known, and am persuaded, in the Lord Jesus, that nothing [is] unclean of itself, except to him who is reckoning anything to be unclean—to that one [it is] unclean;
म यो जान्दछु र म प्रभु येशूमा विश्वास गर्दछु, कि कुनै पनि थोक आफैँ अशुद्ध हुँदैन । जसले कुनै थोकलाई अशुद्ध भनी ठान्छ, त्यसको निम्ति मात्र यो अशुद्ध हुनेछ ।
15 and if your brother is grieved through food, you no longer walk according to love; do not destroy with your food that one for whom Christ died.
यदि खानाले गर्दा तिम्रो भाइलाई चोट पुग्छ भने, तिमी प्रेममा चलिरहेका छैनौ । जसको निम्ति ख्रीष्ट मर्नुभयो त्यसलाई तिम्रो खानाले नष्ट नपार ।
16 Do not let, then, evil be spoken of your good,
यसैले, तिम्रा असल कार्यहरूले तिनीहरूलाई गिल्ला गर्ने नतुल्याओस् ।
17 for the Kingdom of God is not eating and drinking, but righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit;
किनकि परमेश्वरको राज्य खाने र पिउनेबारे होइन, तर पवित्र आत्मामा धार्मिकता, शान्ति र आनन्दबारे हो ।
18 for he who in these things is serving the Christ, [is] acceptable to God and approved of men.
किनकि यसरी ख्रीष्टको सेवा गर्ने व्यक्ति परमेश्वरको निम्ति ग्रहणयोग्य र मानिसहरूद्वारा समर्थन गरिएको हुन्छ ।
19 So, then, may we pursue the things of peace, and the things of building up one another.
यसैले, शान्तिका कुराहरूका र एक-अर्कालाई निर्माण गर्ने कुराहरूका पाछि लागौँ ।
20 Do not cast down the work of God for the sake of food; all things, indeed, [are] pure, but evil [is] to the man who is eating through stumbling.
खानाको कारणले परमेश्वरको कामलाई नष्ट नगर । वास्तवमा सबै थोक शुद्ध छन्, तर जसले खान्छ र त्यसलाई ठेस खान लगाउँछ, त्यसको निम्ति यो दुष्टता हो ।
21 [It is] not right to eat flesh, nor to drink wine, nor to [do anything] in which your brother stumbles, or is made to fall, or is weak.
मासु नखानु, मद्यपान नगर्नु, र आफ्नो भाइलाई चोट पुर्याउने कुनै पनि कुरा नगर्नु असल हो ।
22 You have faith! Have [it] to yourself before God; blessed is he who is not judging himself in what he approves,
तिमीसँग यी विशेष विश्वासहरू छन्, तिनीहरूलाई आफू र परमेश्वरको बिचमा नै राख । आफैँ मञ्जुर भएको कुरामा आफैँलाई दोषी नतुल्याउने मानिस धन्यको हो ।
23 and he who is making a difference, if he may eat, has been condemned, because [it is] not of faith; and all that [is] not of faith is sin.
जसले शङ्का गरेर खान्छ, यो विश्वासबाट नभएको हुनाले त्यो दोषी ठहरिन्छ । अनि जे विश्वासबाट आएको होइन, त्यो पाप हो ।
