1 Him that is weake in the fayth receave vnto you not in disputynge and troublynge his conscience. As for the one who is weak in faith, welcome him, but not to quarrel over opinions. Accept the one whose faith is weak, without quarreling over disputable matters.
2 One beleveth that he maye eate all thinge. Another which is weake eateth earbes. One person believes he may eat anything, while the weak person eats only vegetables. One person’s faith allows them to eat anything, but another, whose faith is weak, eats only vegetables.
3 Let not him that eateth despise him that eateth not. And let not him whiche eateth not iudge him that eateth. For God hath receaved him. Let not the one who eats despise the one who abstains, and let not the one who abstains pass judgment on the one who eats, for God has welcomed him. The one who eats everything must not treat with contempt the one who does not, and the one who does not eat everything must not judge the one who does, for God has accepted them.
4 What arte thou that iudgest another manes servaut? Whether he stonde or faule that pertayneth vnto his master: ye he shall stonde. For God is able to make him stonde. Who are you to pass judgment on the servant of another? It is before his own master that he stands or falls. And he will be upheld, for the Lord is able to make him stand. Who are you to judge someone else’s servant? To their own master, servants stand or fall. And they will stand, for the Lord is able to make them stand.
5 This man putteth difference bitwene daye and daye. Another man counteth all dayes alyke. Se that no man waver in his awne meanynge. One person esteems one day as better than another, while another esteems all days alike. Each one should be fully convinced in his own mind. One person considers one day more sacred than another; another considers every day alike. Each of them should be fully convinced in their own mind.
6 He that observeth one daye more then another doth it for ye lordes pleasure. And he that observeth not one daye moare then another doeth it to please ye lorde also. He that eateth doth it to please the lorde for he geveth god thankes. The one who observes the day, observes it in honor of the Lord. The one who eats, eats in honor of the Lord, since he gives thanks to God, while the one who abstains, abstains in honor of the Lord and gives thanks to God. Whoever regards one day as special does so to the Lord. Whoever eats meat does so to the Lord, for they give thanks to God; and whoever abstains does so to the Lord and gives thanks to God.
7 And he yt eateth not eateth not to please ye lorde wt all and geveth god thankes. For none of us lives to himself, and none of us dies to himself. For none of us lives for ourselves alone, and none of us dies for ourselves alone.
8 For none of vs lyveth his awne servaut: nether doeth anye of vs dye his awne servaunt. Yf we lyve we lyve to be at ye lordes will. And yf we dye we dye at ye lordes will. Whether we lyve therfore or dye we are the lordes. For if we live, we live to the Lord, and if we die, we die to the Lord. So then, whether we live or whether we die, we are the Lord’s. If we live, we live for the Lord; and if we die, we die for the Lord. So, whether we live or die, we belong to the Lord.
9 For Christ therfore dyed and rose agayne and revived that he myght be lorde both of deed and quicke. For to this end Christ died and lived again, that he might be Lord both of the dead and of the living. For this very reason, Christ died and returned to life so that he might be the Lord of both the dead and the living.
10 But why doest thou then iudge thy brother? Other why doest thou despyse thy brother? We shall all be brought before the iudgement seate of Christ. Why do you pass judgment on your brother? Or you, why do you despise your brother? For we will all stand before the judgment seat of God; You, then, why do you judge your brother or sister? Or why do you treat them with contempt? For we will all stand before God’s judgment seat.
11 For it is written: as truely as I lyve sayth ye lorde all knees shall bowe to me and all tonges shall geve a knowledge to God. for it is written, “As I live, says the Lord, every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall confess to God.” It is written: “’As surely as I live,’ says the Lord, ‘every knee will bow before me; every tongue will acknowledge God.’”
12 So shall every one of vs geve accomptes of him selfe to God. So then each of us will give an account of himself to God. So then, each of us will give an account of ourselves to God.
13 Let vs not therfore iudge one another eny more. But iudge this rather that no man put a stomblynge blocke or an occasion to faule in his brothers waye. Therefore let us not pass judgment on one another any longer, but rather decide never to put a stumbling block or hindrance in the way of a brother. Therefore let us stop passing judgment on one another. Instead, make up your mind not to put any stumbling block or obstacle in the way of a brother or sister.
14 For I knowe and am full certified in the Lorde Iesus that ther is nothinge comen of it selfe: but vnto him that iudgeth it to be comen: to him is it comen. I know and am persuaded in the Lord Jesus that nothing is unclean in itself, but it is unclean for anyone who thinks it unclean. I am convinced, being fully persuaded in the Lord Jesus, that nothing is unclean in itself. But if anyone regards something as unclean, then for that person it is unclean.
15 If thy brother be greved with thy meate now walkest thou not charitablye. Destroye not him with thy meate for whom Christ dyed. For if your brother is grieved by what you eat, you are no longer walking in love. By what you eat, do not destroy the one for whom Christ died. If your brother or sister is distressed because of what you eat, you are no longer acting in love. Do not by your eating destroy someone for whom Christ died.
16 Cause not youre treasure to be evyll spoken of. So do not let what you regard as good be spoken of as evil. Therefore do not let what you know is good be spoken of as evil.
17 For the kyngdome of God is not meate and drinke: but rightewesnes peace and ioye in the holy goost. For the kingdom of God is not a matter of eating and drinking but of righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit. For the kingdom of God is not a matter of eating and drinking, but of righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Spirit,
18 For whosoever in these thinges serveth Christ pleaseth well God and is commended of men. Whoever thus serves Christ is acceptable to God and approved by men. because anyone who serves Christ in this way is pleasing to God and receives human approval.
19 Let vs folowe tho thinges which make for peace and thinges wherwith one maye edyfie another. So then let us pursue what makes for peace and for mutual upbuilding. Let us therefore make every effort to do what leads to peace and to mutual edification.
20 Destroye not ye worke of god for a lytell meates sake. All thinges are pure: but it is evyll for that man which eateth with hurte of his conscience. Do not, for the sake of food, destroy the work of God. Everything is indeed clean, but it is wrong for anyone to make another stumble by what he eats. Do not destroy the work of God for the sake of food. All food is clean, but it is wrong for a person to eat anything that causes someone else to stumble.
21 It is good nether to eate flesshe nether to drincke wyne nether eny thinge wherby thy brother stombleth ether falleth or is made weake. It is good not to eat meat or drink wine or do anything that causes your brother to stumble. It is better not to eat meat or drink wine or to do anything else that will cause your brother or sister to fall.
22 Hast thou fayth? have it with thy selfe before god. Happy is he yt condempneth not him selfe in that thinge which he aloweth. The faith that you have, keep between yourself and God. Blessed is the one who has no reason to pass judgment on himself for what he approves. So whatever you believe about these things keep between yourself and God. Blessed is the one who does not condemn himself by what he approves.
23 For he yt maketh conscience is dampned yf he eate: because he doth it not of fayth. For whatsoever is not of fayth that same is synne. But whoever has doubts is condemned if he eats, because the eating is not from faith. For whatever does not proceed from faith is sin. But whoever has doubts is condemned if they eat, because their eating is not from faith; and everything that does not come from faith is sin.
