Romans 14
1 Now accept one who is weak in faith, but not for disputes over opinions.
Zvino ane utera parutendo mugamuchirei, kwete negakava pamaonero.
2 One man has faith to eat all things, but he who is weak eats only vegetables.
Umwe anotenda kudya zvese, asi ane utera anodya miriwo.
3 Don’t let him who eats despise him who doesn’t eat. Don’t let him who doesn’t eat judge him who eats, for God has accepted him.
Anodya ngaarege kuzvidza asingadyi, uye asingadyi ngaarege kutonga anodya; nokuti Mwari wakamugamuchira.
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 God has power to make him stand.
Iwe ndiwe ani anotonga muranda weumwe? Anomira kana kuwa kuna ishe wake pachake. Achamiswa zvirokwazvo; nokuti Mwari anogona kumumisa.
5 One man esteems one day as more important. Another esteems every day alike. Let each man be fully assured in his own mind.
Umwe anotemera zuva kupfuura rimwe zuva; umwe anotemera zuva rimwe nerimwe zvakafanana. Umwe neumwe ngaazivisise mumurangariro wake pachake.
6 He who observes the day, observes it to the Lord; and he who does not observe the day, to the Lord he does not observe it. He who eats, eats to the Lord, for he gives God thanks. He who doesn’t eat, to the Lord he doesn’t eat, and gives God thanks.
Uyo anorangarira zuva, anorirangarira muna Ishe; neasingarangariri zuva, haarangariri muna Ishe; anodya anodya kuna Ishe, nokuti anovonga Mwari; uye asingadyi haadyi muna Ishe, uye anovonga Mwari.
7 For none of us lives to himself, and none dies to himself.
Nokuti hakuna umwe kwatiri anozviraramira, uye hakuna anozvifira.
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.
Nokuti kana tichirarama, tinoraramira Ishe; uye kana tichifa, tinofira Ishe; naizvozvo kana tichirarama, kana tichifa, tiri vaIshe.
9 For to this end Christ died, rose, and lived again, that he might be Lord of both the dead and the living.
Nokuti naKristu wakafira izvozvi, uye akamuka, akararamazve kuti ave Ishe wevese vakafa nevapenyu.
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 Christ.
Zvino iwe unotongerei hama yako? Kana newe unozvidzirei hama yako? Nokuti isu tese tichamira pamberi pechigaro chekutonga chaKristu.
11 For it is written, “‘As I live,’ says the Lord, ‘to me every knee will bow. Every tongue will confess to God.’”
Nokuti kwakanyorwa kuchinzi: Ini ndinorarama, anodaro Ishe; ibvi rimwe nerimwe richandifugamira, nerurimi rumwe nerumwe rwuchabvuma kuna Mwari.
12 So then each one of us will give account of himself to God.
Naizvozvo zvino umwe neumwe wedu achazvidavirira pachake kuna Mwari.
13 Therefore let’s not judge one another any more, but judge this rather, that no man put a stumbling block in his brother’s way, or an occasion for falling.
Naizvozvo ngatirege kuva tichatongana; asi zviri nani mutonge izvi, kuti tisaisira hama chigumbuso kana chipinganidzo.
14 I know and am persuaded in the Lord Jesus that nothing is unclean of itself; except that to him who considers anything to be unclean, to him it is unclean.
Ndinoziva uye ndine chokwadi muna Ishe Jesu, kuti hakuna chinhu chakasviba pachacho; asi kune uyo anofunga kuti chakasviba, kwaari chakasviba.
15 Yet if because of food your brother is grieved, you walk no longer in love. Don’t destroy with your food him for whom Christ died.
Asi kana hama yako ichishungurudzwa nekudya, hauchafambi maererano nerudo. Usamuparadza nekudya kwako, uyo Kristu waakafira.
16 Then don’t let your good be slandered,
Naizvozvo zvakanaka zvenyu ngazvirege kunyombwa.
17 for God’s Kingdom is not eating and drinking, but righteousness, peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit.
Nokuti ushe hwaMwari hahusi kudya nechinwiwa, asi kururama nerugare nemufaro muMweya Mutsvene.
18 For he who serves Christ in these things is acceptable to God and approved by men.
Nokuti anoshumira Kristu pazvinhu izvi, anogamuchirika kuna Mwari, uye anotendwa kuvanhu.
19 So then, let’s follow after things which make for peace, and things by which we may build one another up.
Naizvozvo zvino ngatitsvakisise zvinhu zverugare, nezvinhu zvekuvakana.
20 Don’t overthrow God’s work for food’s sake. All things indeed are clean, however it is evil for that man who creates a stumbling block by eating.
Rega kuparadza basa raMwari nekuda kwekudya. Zvese zvakachena, asi zvakaipa kumunhu anodya nechigumbuso.
21 It is good to not eat meat, drink wine, nor do anything by which your brother stumbles, is offended, or is made weak.
Zvakanaka kusadya nyama, kana kunwa waini, kana chimwe hama yako chaingagumburwa nacho kana kukanganiswa kana kushaiwa simba.
22 Do you have faith? Have it to yourself before God. Happy is he who doesn’t judge himself in that which he approves.
Iwe une rutendo here? Iva narwo pachako pamberi paMwari. Wakaropafadzwa asingazvitongi pachinhu chaanotendera.
23 But he who doubts is condemned if he eats, because it isn’t of faith; and whatever is not of faith is sin.
Asi asina chokwadi, kana achidya, wava nemhosva, nokuti haadyi nerutendo; uye chese chisingabvi parutendo, chivi.
