one doth believe that he may eat all things -- and he who is weak doth eat herbs;

For none of us to himself doth live, and none to himself doth die;
|
|

for it hath been written, `I live! saith the Lord -- to Me bow shall every knee, and every tongue shall confess to God;'

so, then, each of us concerning himself shall give reckoning to God;

I have known, and am persuaded, in the Lord Jesus, that nothing [is] unclean of itself, except to him who is reckoning anything to be unclean -- to that one [it is] unclean;
|

Let not, then, your good be evil spoken of,
|
|
Romans 14:17

for the reign of God is not eating and drinking, but righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit;

for he who in these things is serving the Christ, [is] acceptable to God and approved of men.
|

|
Right [it is] not to eat flesh, nor to drink wine, nor to [do anything] in which thy brother doth stumble, or is made to fall, or is weak.

Thou hast faith! to thyself have [it] before God; happy is he who is not judging himself in what he doth approve,
|
|

|
and he who is making a difference, if he may eat, hath been condemned, because [it is] not of faith; and all that [is] not of faith is sin.
