Romana 14
1 Ary raiso ny malemy finoana, nefa aza, mandray azy hitsaranareo ny eritreriny.
Now accept one who is weak in faith, but not for disputes over opinions.
2 Ny anankiray mino fa mahazo mihinana ny zavatra rehatra izy, fa ny anankiray kosa malemy finoana, ka dia mihinana zava-maniry ihany.
One person has faith to eat all things, but the one who is weak eats only vegetables.
3 Aoka ny mihinana tsy hanamavo ny tsy mihinana; ary aoka kosa ny tsy mihinana tsy hitsara ny mihinana; fa Andriamanitra no efa nandray ary.
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.
4 Iza moa ianao izay mitsara ny mpanompon’ ny hafa? Amin’ ny tompony ihany no ijoroany na ahalavoany. Nefa hampitoerina ihany izy; fa mahay mampitoetra azy ny Tompo.
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.
5 Ny anankiray manao ny andro anankiray ho mihoatra noho ny andro sasany; ary ny anankiray kosa manao ny andro rehetra hitovy. Aoka samy hatoky tsara ao amin’ ny sainy avy izy.
One esteems one day as more important; and another one esteems every day alike. Let each one be fully convinced in his own mind.
6 Ny mitandrina ny andro dia mitandrina izany ho an’ ny Tompo. Ary ny mihinana dia mihinana ho an’ ny Tompo, satria misaotra an’ Andriamanitra izy; ary ny tsy mihinana kosa dia tsy mihinana ho an’ ny Tompo, sady misaotra an’ Andriamanitra koa izy.
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.
7 Fa tsy misy velon-ko an’ ny tenany isika, ary tsy misy maty ho an’ ny tenany.
For none of us lives to himself, and none dies to himself.
8 Fa raha velona isika, dia velona ho an’ ny Tompo; ary raha maty isika, dia maty ho an’ ny Tompo; koa amin’ izany, na velona na maty isika, dia an’ ny Tompo ihany.
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.
9 Fa izany no nahafatesan’ i Kristy sy nahavelomany indray, mba ho Tompon’ ny maty sy ny velona Izy.
For to this end Christ died, and lived again, that he might be Lord of both the dead and the living.
10 Fa nahoana ianao no mitsara ny rahalahinao? Ary nahoana kosa ianao no manao tsinontsinona ny rahalahinao? Fa samy hiseho eo anoloan’ ny fitsaran’ Andriamanitra isika rehetra.
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.
11 Fa voasoratra hoe: Raha velona koa Aho, hoy Jehovah, ny lohalika rehetra handohalika amiko, Ary ny lela rehetra hidera an’ Andriamanitra.
For it is written, "'As I live,' says the Lord, 'to me every knee will bow. Every tongue will confess to God.'"
12 Koa samy hampamoahin’ Andriamanitra ny amin’ ny tenany avy isika rehetra.
So then each one of us will give account of himself to God.
13 Koa aza mifampitsara intsony isika; fa aleo mihevitra izao, dia ny tsy hanisy fandavoana na fanafintohinana eo anoloan’ ny rahalahy.
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.
14 Mahalala sady matoky ao amin’ i Jesosy Tompo aho fa tsy misy zavatra maloto ho azy; fa raha misy manao zavatra ho maloto, dia aminy ihany no maloto izany.
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.
15 Fa raha mampalahelo ny rahalahinao ny fihinanao, dia tsy mba manaraka ny fitiavana intsony ianao. Aza ny fihinanao no animbanao azy, fa efa maty Kristy hamonjy azy.
Yet if because of food your brother is grieved, you walk no longer in love. Do not destroy with your food him for whom Christ died.
16 Aoka ary tsy mba hotenenina ratsy ny fahasoavana azonareo.
Then do not let your good be slandered,
17 Fa ny fanjakan’ Andriamanitra dia tsy amin’ ny fihinanana sy ny fisotroana, fa fahamarinana sy fiadanana ary fifaliana ao amin’ ny Fanahy Masìna.
for the kingdom of God is not eating and drinking, but righteousness, peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit.
18 Fa izay manompo an’ i Kristy amin’ izany zavatra izany no sitrak’ Andriamanitra sy eken’ ny olona fa tsara.
For he who serves Christ in these things is acceptable to God and approved by people.
19 Koa dia aoka isika hiezaka hitady ny momba ny fiadanana sy ny momba ny fifampandrosoana.
So then, let us follow after things which make for peace, and things by which we may build one another up.
20 Aza izay hanina no andravanao ny asan’ Andriamanitra. Madio avokoa ny zavatra rehetra, nefa ratsy ho an’ ny olona izay mihinana amin’ ny fahatafintohinana.
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.
21 Fa tsara ny tsy mihinana hena, na misotro divay, na manao izay hahatafintohina ny rahalahinao.
It is good to not eat meat, drink wine, or do anything by which your brother stumbles, or is offended, or is made weak.
22 Ny finoana izay anananao dia hazòny ho anao eo anatrehan’ Andriamanitra. Sambatra izay tsy manameloka ny tenany amin’ izay zavatra ekeny.
The faith you have, keep between yourself and God. Happy is the one who does not judge himself in that which he approves.
23 Fa izay miahanahana dia meloka raha homana, satria tsy avy amin’ ny finoana izany; fa ota izay rehetra tsy avy amin’ ny finoana.
But he who doubts is condemned if he eats, because it is not of faith; and whatever is not of faith is sin.
