Rimljanom 14
1 Tistega, ki je v veri slaboten, sprejmite, toda ne k dvomljivim pričkanjem.
Receive someone who is weak in the faith, but not for disputes over arguables.
2 Kajti nekdo veruje, da lahko jé vse stvari; drug, ki je šibek, jé zelišča.
One man has faith to eat everything, while the weak one eats only vegetables.
3 Naj tisti, ki jé, ne prezira tistega, ki ne jé; in kdor ne jé, naj ne sodi tistega, ki jé; kajti Bog ga je sprejel.
One who eats must not look down on one who does not, and one who does not eat must not judge one who does, because God has accepted him.
4 Kdo si ti, da sodiš služabnika drugega moža? Svojemu lastnemu gospodarju stoji ali pade. Da, obdržan bo pokonci; kajti Bog ga je zmožen postaviti pokonci.
Who are you to judge someone else's household servant? To his own master he stands or falls. And stand he will, for God has the power to make him stand.
5 Nek človek čisla en dan nad drugim, drugi čisla vsak dan enako. Naj bo vsak v svojem lastnem mišljenju popolnoma prepričan.
One man esteems one day above another; another esteems everyday alike. Let each one be fully convinced in his own mind.
6 Kdor upošteva dan, ga upošteva za Gospoda; kdor pa dneva ne upošteva, ga ne upošteva Gospodu. Kdor jé, jé za Gospoda, kajti zahvale daje Bogu; kdor pa ne jé, ne jé Gospodu in zahvalo daje Bogu.
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. And he who eats, eats to the Lord, since he gives thanks to God; while he who does not eat, to the Lord he does not eat, also giving thanks to God.
7 Kajti nihče izmed nas ne živi zase in noben človek ne umira zase.
You see, none of us lives to himself, and no one dies to himself.
8 Kajti če živimo, živimo za Gospoda; in če umremo, umremo za Gospoda. Če torej živimo ali umremo, smo Gospodovi.
Because if we live, we live to the Lord; and if we die, we die to the Lord. So whether we live or whether we die, we are the Lord's.
9 Kajti zato je Kristus tako umrl kakor vstal in oživel, da bi bil lahko Gospod tako mrtvih kakor živih.
For this very reason Christ both died and rose, and lived, so as to rule both dead and living.
10 Toda zakaj sodiš svojega brata? Ali zakaj zasmehuješ svojega brata? Kajti vsi bomo stali pred Kristusovim sodnim stolom.
But you, why do you judge your brother? And you too, why do you look down on your brother? Because we will all stand before the Judgment Seat of Christ.
11 Kajti pisano je: ›Kakor jaz živim, govori Gospod, bo vsako koleno pokleknilo k meni in vsak jezik bo priznal Boga.‹
For it is written: “‘As I live,’ says the Lord, ‘every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall acknowledge God.’”
12 Tako bo potem vsak izmed nas Bogu dal obračun o sebi.
So then, each of us will give an account of himself to God.
13 Torej ne sodimo več drug drugega, temveč raje sodimo to, da noben človek ne postavi kamna spotike ali priložnosti, da pade, na pot svojega brata.
Therefore let us stop passing judgment on one another, but rather resolve this: not to put a stumbling block or pitfall in a brother's way.
14 Vem in po Gospodu Jezusu sem prepričan, da ni nič sámo po sebi nečisto; toda temu, ki mêni, da je karkoli nečisto, je to zanj nečisto.
I know and have been convinced by Sovereign Jesus that nothing is unclean of itself (still, to someone who considers a thing to be unclean, to him it is unclean),
15 Toda če je tvoj brat užaloščen s tvojo jedjo, torej ne živiš v ljubezni. S svojo jedjo ne uničuj tega, za kogar je Kristus umrl.
but if your brother is offended because of food, you are no longer walking according to love. Do not, with your food, ruin someone for whom Christ died.
16 Naj se potem o vašem dobrem ne govori zlo,
So do not let your good be slandered;
17 kajti Božje kraljestvo ni hrana in pijača, temveč pravičnost in mir in radost v Svetem Duhu.
because the Kingdom of God is not eating and drinking, but righteousness and peace and joy in Holy Spirit.
18 Kajti kdor v teh stvareh služi Kristusu, je sprejemljiv za Boga in potrjen od ljudi.
For whoever serves the Christ in these things is satisfying to God and approved by men.
19 Prizadevajmo si torej za stvari, ki delajo za mir in za stvari, s katerimi lahko eden izgrajuje drugega.
So then, let us pursue the things that promote peace and the things by which one may edify another.
20 Zaradi hrane ne uničuj Božjega dela. Vse stvari so zares čiste; toda zlo je za tistega človeka, ki jé s spotiko.
Do not destroy the work of God for the sake of food. All things indeed are ‘clean’; however it is wrong for the man who gives offence by eating.
21 Dobro je ne jesti mesa niti piti vina niti katerekoli stvari, s čimer se tvoj brat spotika ali je užaljen ali je postal slaboten.
It is good not to eat meat nor drink wine nor do anything by which your brother stumbles, or is offended, or is weakened.
22 Imaš vero? Imej jo zase pred Bogom. Srečen je, kdor sebe ne obsoja v tej stvari, ki jo on dopušča.
Do you have faith? Have it privately before God. Happy is he who does not judge himself in what he approves.
23 Kdor pa dvomi, je obsojen če jé, ker ne jé iz vere; kajti karkoli ni iz vere, je greh.
But he who eats with doubt stands condemned, because it is not from faith; for whatever is not from faith is sin.
