< Romans 14 >

1 Now accept one who is weak in faith, but not for disputes over opinions.
But take ye a sijk man in bileue, not in demyngis of thouytis.
2 One person has faith to eat all things, but the one who is weak eats only vegetables.
For another man leueth, that he mai ete alle thingis; but he that is sijk, ete wortis.
3 Do not let the one who eats despise the one who does not eat. Do not let the one who does not eat judge the one who eats, for God has accepted him.
He that etith, dispise not hym that etith not; and he that etith not, deme not hym that etith. For God hath take him to hym.
4 Who are you who judge another's servant? To his own lord he stands or falls. Yes, he will be made to stand, for the Lord has power to make him stand.
Who art thou, that demest anothris seruaunt? To his lord he stondith, or fallith fro hym. But he schal stonde; for the Lord is myyti to make hym parfit.
5 One esteems one day as more important; and another one esteems every day alike. Let each one be fully convinced in his own mind.
For whi oon demeth a day bitwixe a dai, another demeth ech dai.
6 The one who observes the day, observes it to the Lord; and the one who does not observe the day, he does not observe it to the Lord. The one who eats, he eats to the Lord; since he gives thanks to God. And the one who does not eat, he does not eat to the Lord, and gives thanks to God.
Ech man encrees in his wit. He that vnderstondith the dai, vnderstondith to the Lord. And he that etith, etith to the Lord, for he doith thankyngis to God. And he that etith not, etith not to the Lord, and doith thankyngis to God.
7 For none of us lives to himself, and none dies to himself.
For no man of vs lyueth to hymsilf, and no man dieth to hymself.
8 For if we live, we live to the Lord. Or if we die, we die to the Lord. If therefore we live or die, we are the Lord's.
For whether we lyuen, we lyuen to the Lord; and whethir we dien, we dien to the Lord. Therfor whethir we lyuen or dien, we ben of the Lord.
9 For to this end Meshikha died, and lived again, that he might be Lord of both the dead and the living.
For whi for this thing Crist was deed, and roos ayen, that he be Lord bothe of quyke and of deed men.
10 But you, why do you judge your brother? Or you again, why do you despise your brother? For we will all stand before the judgment seat of God.
But what demest thou thi brothir? or whi dispisist thou thi brothir? for alle we schulen stonde bifore the trone of Crist.
11 For it is written, "'As I live,' says the Lord, 'to me every knee will bow. Every tongue will confess to God.'"
For it is writun, Y lyue, seith the Lord, for to me ech kne schal be bowid, and ech tunge schal knouleche to God.
12 So then each one of us will give account of himself to God.
Therfor ech of vs schal yelde resoun to God for hym silf.
13 Therefore let us not judge one another any more, but judge this rather, not to put a stumbling block in a brother's way, or an occasion for falling.
Therfor `no more deme we ech other; but more deme ye this thing, that ye putte not hirtyng, or sclaundre, to a brothir.
14 I know, and am persuaded in the Lord Yeshua, that nothing is unclean of itself; except that to him who considers anything to be unclean, to him it is unclean.
I woot and triste in the Lord Jhesu, that no thing is vnclene bi hym, no but to him that demeth ony thing to be vnclene, to him it is vnclene.
15 Yet if because of food your brother is grieved, you walk no longer in love. Do not destroy with your food him for whom Meshikha died.
And if thi brother be maad sori in conscience for mete, now thou walkist not aftir charite. Nyle thou thorouy thi mete lese hym, for whom Crist diede.
16 Then do not let your good be slandered,
Therfor be not oure good thing blasfemed.
17 for the Kingdom of God is not eating and drinking, but righteousness, peace, and joy in the Rukha d'Qudsha.
For whi the rewme of God is not mete and drynk, but riytwisnesse and pees and ioye in the Hooli Goost.
18 For he who serves Meshikha in these things is acceptable to God and approved by people.
And he that in this thing serueth Crist, plesith God, and is proued to men.
19 So then, let us follow after things which make for peace, and things by which we may build one another up.
Therfor sue we tho thingis that ben of pees, and kepe we togidere `tho thingis that ben of edificacioun.
20 Do not overthrow God's work for food's sake. All things indeed are clean, however it is evil for anyone who creates a stumbling block by eating.
Nyle thou for mete distrie the werk of God. For alle thingis ben clene, but it is yuel to the man that etith bi offendyng.
21 It is good to not eat meat, drink wine, or do anything by which your brother stumbles, or is offended, or is made weak.
It is good to not ete fleisch, and to not drynke wyn, nethir in what thing thi brother offendith, or is sclaundrid, or is maad sijk.
22 The faith you have, keep between yourself and God. Happy is the one who does not judge himself in that which he approves.
Thou hast feith anentis thi silf, haue thou bifore God. Blessid is he that demeth not hym silf in that thing that he preueth.
23 But he who doubts is condemned if he eats, because it is not of faith; and whatever is not of faith is sin.
For he that demeth, is dampned, if he etith; for it is not of feith. And al thing that is not of feith, is synne.
