< Romans 14 >
1 Accept those who are not sure [whether God will permit them to do certain things some people think are wrong]. But [when you accept them], do not argue with them about what they think/their opinions.
Ora, quanto ao que está enfermo na fé, recebei-o, não em contendas de disputas.
2 Some people believe that they may eat all [kinds of food]. Others believe [that God does not want them to eat certain things, so they] believe that they may not eat meat.
Porque um crê que de tudo se pode comer, e outro, que é enfermo, come legumes.
3 Anyone who [thinks that it is all right to] eat [all kinds of food] must not despise those who [think it is] not [all right to] eat [all kinds of food]. Anyone who [thinks it is] not [all right to] eat [all kinds of food] must not (condemn/say that [God] will punish) those who [think that it is all right to] eat [all kinds of food], because God himself has accepted those people.
O que come não despreze ao que não come; e o que não come não julgue ao que come; porque Deus o recebeu por seu
4 [God is the master of us all, so] ([he is the one who will decide whether those people have done wrong!/who are you to decide whether they have done wrong]?) [RHQ] [Therefore], you have no right [RHQ] to condemn those who eat everything, because they are [also God’s servants! And just like] it is the servants’ own master who accepts or condemns [MTY] his servants, [it is God who accepts or condemns us]. And [believers] will be accepted [by] the Lord {[the Lord] will accept [believers]} [regardless of whether they eat meat or not], because he is able to keep them [trusting in him].
Quem és tu, que julgas ao servo alheio? Para seu proprio Senhor está em pé ou cae; porém estará firme; porque poderoso é Deus para o firmar.
5 Some people regard certain days as [holy] and think that the other [days] are not [holy]. Other people regard all days as [equally suitable for worshipping God]. Each person should be fully convinced [about such matters], thinking and deciding for himself [and not for others].
Um faz differença entre dia e dia, mas outro julga eguaes todos os dias. Cada um esteja inteiramente seguro em seu proprio animo.
6 As for those who believe that they should worship on [a certain] day [of the week], it is to [honor] the Lord [that they worship on that day]. And as for those who [think that it is all right to] eat [all kinds of food], it is to [honor] the Lord [that they eat those foods], as is clear from their thanking God [for the food that they eat]. As for those who abstain from [eating certain kinds of] food, it is to [honor] the Lord that they do not eat [those foods], and they also thank God [for the food that they do eat. So doing either of those things is not wrong in itself].
Aquelle que faz caso do dia, para o Senhor o faz; e o que não faz caso do dia, para o Senhor o não faz. O que come, para o Senhor come, porque dá graças a Deus; e o que não come, para o Senhor não come, e dá graças a Deus.
7 None of us should live [merely] to [please] ourselves, and none of us [should choose when or how we will] die, [merely] to [please] ourselves.
Porque nenhum de nós vive para si, e nenhum morre para si.
8 While we live, it is the Lord whom we belong to [and should be trying to please, and not just ourselves]. And when we die, it is the Lord whom we should [be trying to please]. So, while we live and also when we die, we should be trying to please the Lord to whom we belong, [not just ourselves],
Porque, se vivemos, para o Senhor vivemos: se morremos, para o Senhor morremos. De sorte que, ou vivamos ou morramos, somos do Senhor.
9 because the very purpose for which Christ died and became alive again is that he might be Lord whom all people should try to please, both of those who have already died and of those who are still living.
Porque para isto tambem morreu Christo, e resuscitou, e tornou a viver; para ser Senhor, tanto dos mortos, como dos vivos.
10 (It is disgraceful that you [who practice certain religious regulations] say that God will punish your fellow believers [who do not practice those regulations]!/Why do you [who practice certain religious regulations] say God will punish your fellow believers [who do not practice such regulations]?) [RHQ] [I say this because the time will come when] all of us will stand before God in order that he will say whether or not he approves [MTY] [of what we have done]. So you [who do not practice such regulations], (should not despise your fellow believers [who practice them]!/why do you despise your fellow believers [who practice them]?) [RHQ]
Mas tu, porque julgas a teu irmão? Ou tu, tambem, porque desprezas a teu irmão? Pois todos havemos de comparecer ante o tribunal de Christo.
11 [We know this] because it is written {[a prophet/Isaiah] wrote} [what God has said]: Everyone will bow down before me! That is as [certain as the fact that] I live [IDM]! Everyone [SYN] will acknowledge [that because I am] God, I have the [right to judge and punish people.]
Porque está escripto: Vivo eu, diz o Senhor: que todo o joelho se dobrará diante de mim, e toda a lingua confessará a Deus.
12 So [it is clear that] it is God who will decide [whether or not he approves of] what each of us has done.
De maneira que cada um de nós dará conta de si mesmo a Deus.
13 Since [it is God who will judge everyone], we must stop saying that [God should] punish some of our fellow believers! Instead, you/we should decide that you/we will not do anything that would [be an example that might cause] fellow believers to stop trusting in God [DOU].
Assim que não nos julguemos mais uns aos outros; mas antes julgae isto, não pôr tropeço ou escandalo ao irmão.
14 I am absolutely certain [DOU] because of [my close relationship with] (OR, [my belonging to]) the Lord Jesus that there is nothing that by itself is wrong [to eat]. But if people think it is wrong to eat something, then to them it is wrong to eat it. [So you should not encourage them to eat it].
Eu sei, e estou certo no Senhor Jesus, que nenhuma coisa é de si mesmo immunda senão para aquelle que a tem por immunda, para esse é immunda.
15 If you [eat] food [MET] that anyone for whom Christ died [thinks that it is wrong to eat, that person might be encouraged] {[you might be encouraging that person]} [to do something that he believes is wrong. As a result, you might cause that] fellow believer [to stop trusting in God]. In that way he would be ruined [spiritually] just because you have stopped behaving as one who loves [others should behave]!
Mas, se por causa da comida se contrista teu irmão, já não andas conforme o amor. Não destruas com a tua comida aquelle por quem Christo morreu.
16 Similarly, do not [do something that you think is] good if, [as a result, your fellow believer would sin and then] others would speak evil [of you who say that you are Christians].
Não seja pois blasphemado o vosso bem;
17 Letting God rule our lives [MET] does not mean [that we must obey regulations about] eating or drinking [something]! Instead, [it means we must] live righteously, [act] peacefully [towards others], and be joyful by [the power of] the Holy Spirit.
Porque o reino de Deus não é comida nem bebida, mas justiça, e paz, e alegria no Espirito Sancto.
18 Those who serve Christ [by acting] in such ways please God, and others will also respect them.
Porque quem n'isto serve a Christo agradavel é a Deus e acceito aos homens.
19 So we should always eagerly try to [live in a way that will cause] peace [among fellow Christians], and we should try to do what will help each other to mature [spiritually].
Sigamos pois as coisas que servem para a paz e para a edificação de uns para com os outros.
20 Do not destroy what God has done [in the life of any believer] just because of [your eating certain kinds of] food [MET] [which that person considers wrong to eat! God] permits us to eat every [kind of food]. But if, by your eating [certain kinds of food], you encourage another person to sin [by doing what he believes is wrong], you are doing wrong.
Não destruas por causa da comida a obra de Deus. É verdade que todas as coisas são limpas, mas é mau para o homem que come com escandalo.
21 It is good neither to eat meat nor to drink wine, nor [to do anything else at any time if it] will cause one of your fellow believers to stop trusting in God.
Bom é não comer carne, nem beber vinho, nem fazer outras coisas em que teu irmão tropece, ou se escandalize, ou se enfraqueça.
22 Let God tell you [what things are right for you to do, but do not try to force others to accept what you believe. God is] pleased with those who do what they know is right and as a result do not feel guilty [concerning what they have done], [because they have done only] those things that they believe are right.
Tens tu fé? Tem-n'a em ti mesmo diante de Deus. Bemaventurado aquelle que não se condemna a si mesmo no que approva.
23 But some believers are not certain [that God will approve of their eating a certain kind of food]. So if they eat it, [they think that God will punish] them. And they [truly] will be punished {[God truly] will punish them}, because [they have done things that they] believe [are not right]. Those who do anything without being certain [that God considers it to be right] are sinning.
Mas aquelle que duvida, se come está condemnado, porque não come por fé; e tudo que não é de fé é peccado.
