Romans 14

Slaboga u vjeri prigrlite, ali ne da se prepirete o mišljenjima.

Him that is weak in the faith receive ye, but not to doubtful disputations.

Netko vjeruje da smije sve jesti, slabi opet jede samo povrće.

For one believeth that he may eat all things: another, who is weak, eateth herbs.

Tko jede, neka ne prezire onoga tko ne jede; tko pak ne jede, neka ne sudi onoga tko jede. Ta Bog ga je prigrlio.

Let not him that eateth despise him that eateth not; and let not him which eateth not judge him that eateth: for God hath received him.

Tko si ti da sudiš tuđega slugu? Svojemu Gospodaru i stoji i pada! A stajat će jer moćan je Gospodin da ga podrži.

Who art thou that judgest another man's servant? to his own master he standeth or falleth. Yea, he shall be holden up: for God is able to make him stand.

Netko razlikuje dan od dana, nekomu je opet svaki dan jednak. Samo nek je svatko posve uvjeren u svoje mišljenje.

One man esteemeth one day above another: another esteemeth every day alike. Let every man be fully persuaded in his own mind.

Tko na dan misli, poradi Gospodina misli; i tko jede, poradi Gospodina jede: zahvaljuje Bogu. I tko ne jede, poradi Gospodina ne jede i - zahvaljuje Bogu.

He that regardeth the day, regardeth it unto the Lord; and he that regardeth not the day, to the Lord he doth not regard it. He that eateth, eateth to the Lord, for he giveth God thanks; and he that eateth not, to the Lord he eateth not, and giveth God thanks.

Jer nitko od nas sebi ne živi, nitko sebi ne umire.

For none of us liveth to himself, and no man dieth to himself.

Doista, ako živimo, Gospodinu živimo, i ako umiremo, Gospodinu umiremo. Živimo li dakle ili umiremo - Gospodinovi smo.

For whether we live, we live unto the Lord; and whether we die, we die unto the Lord: whether we live therefore, or die, we are the Lord's.

Ta Krist zato umrije i oživje da gospodar bude i mrtvima i živima.

For to this end Christ both died, and rose, and revived, that he might be Lord both of the dead and living.

A ti, što sudiš brata svoga? Ili ti, što prezireš brata svoga? Ta svi ćemo stati pred sudište Božje.

But why dost thou judge thy brother? or why dost thou set at nought thy brother? for we shall all stand before the judgment seat of Christ.

Jer pisano je: Života mi moga, govori Gospodin, prignut će se preda mnom svako koljeno i svaki će jezik priznati Boga.

For it is written, As I live, saith the Lord, every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall confess to God.

Svaki će dakle od nas za sebe Bogu dati račun.

So then every one of us shall give account of himself to God.

Dakle, ne sudimo više jedan drugoga, nego radije sudite o tome da ne valja postavljati bratu stupice ili spoticala.

Let us not therefore judge one another any more: but judge this rather, that no man put a stumblingblock or an occasion to fall in his brother's way.

Znam i uvjeren sam u Gospodinu: ništa samo od sebe nije nečisto. Samo je onomu nečisto tko to smatra nečistim.

I know, and am persuaded by the Lord Jesus, that there is nothing unclean of itself: but to him that esteemeth any thing to be unclean, to him it is unclean.

Doista, ako je poradi hrane tvoj brat ražalošćen, već nisi na putu ljubavi. Ne upropašćuj tom svojom hranom onoga za koga je Krist umro!

But if thy brother be grieved with thy meat, now walkest thou not charitably. Destroy not him with thy meat, for whom Christ died.

Nemojte da se pogrđuje vaše dobro!

Let not then your good be evil spoken of:

Ta kraljevstvo Božje nije jelo ili piće, nego pravednost, mir i radost u Duhu Svetome.

For the kingdom of God is not meat and drink; but righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost.

Da, tko tako Kristu služi, mio je Bogu i cijene ga ljudi.

For he that in these things serveth Christ is acceptable to God, and approved of men.

Nastojmo stoga promicati mir i uzajamno izgrađivanje!

Let us therefore follow after the things which make for peace, and things wherewith one may edify another.

Ne razaraj djela Božjega poradi hrane! Sve je, istina, čisto, ali je zlo za onoga tko na sablazan jede.

For meat destroy not the work of God. All things indeed are pure; but it is evil for that man who eateth with offence.

Dobro je ne jesti mesa i ne piti vina i ne uzimati ništa o što se tvoj brat spotiče.

It is good neither to eat flesh, nor to drink wine, nor any thing whereby thy brother stumbleth, or is offended, or is made weak.

Ti imaš uvjerenje. Za sebe ga imaj pred Bogom. Blago onomu tko samoga sebe ne osuđuje u onom na što se odlučuje!

Hast thou faith? have it to thyself before God. Happy is he that condemneth not himself in that thing which he alloweth.

Jede li tko dvoumeći, osudio se jer ne radi iz uvjerenja. A sve što nije iz uvjerenja, grijeh je.

And he that doubteth is damned if he eat, because he eateth not of faith: for whatsoever is not of faith is sin.
