Romans 14

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

Men tager eder af den, som er skrøbelig i Troen, og dømmer ikke hans Meninger!

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

En har Tro til at spise alt; men den skrøbelige spiser kun Urter.

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.

Den, som spiser, må ikke ringeagte den, som ikke spiser; og den, som ikke spiser, må ikke dømme den, som spiser; thi Gud har taget sig af ham.

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.

Hvem er du, som dømmer en andens Tjener? For sin egen Herre står eller falder han; men han skal blive stående, thi Herren er mægtig til at lade ham stå.

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

En agter den ene Dag fremfor den anden, en anden agter alle dage lige; enhver have fuld Vished i sit eget Sind!

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.

Den, som lægger Vægt på Dagen, han gør det for Herren. Og den, som spiser, gør det for Herren, thi han takker Gud; og den, som ikke spiser, gør det for Herren og takker Gud.

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

Thi ingen af os lever for sig selv, og ingen dør for sig selv;

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.

thi når vi leve, leve vi for Herren, og når vi dø, dø vi for Herren; derfor, enten vi leve, eller vi dø, ere vi Herrens.

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

Dertil er jo Kristus død og bleven levende, at han skal herske både over døde og levende.

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.

Men du, hvorfor dømmer du din Broder? eller du, hvorfor ringeagter du din Broder? Vi skulle jo alle fremstilles for Guds Domstol.

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

Thi der er skrevet: "Så sandt jeg lever, siger Herren, for mig skal hvert Knæ bøje sig, og hver Tunge skal bekende Gud."

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

Altså skal hver af os gøre Gud Regnskab for sig selv.

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.

Derfor,lader os ikke mere dømme hverandre, men dømmer hellere dette, at man ikke må give sin Broder Anstød eller Forargelse.

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.

Jeg ved og er vis på i den Herre Jesus, at intet er urent i sig selv; dog, for den, som agter noget for urent, for ham er det urent.

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

Thi dersom din Broder bedrøves for Mads Skyld, da vandrer du ikke mere i Kærlighed. Led ikke ved din Mad den i Fordærvelse, for hvis Skyld Kristus er død.

Let not then your good be evil spoken of:

Lader derfor ikke eders Gode blive bespottet!

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

Thi Guds Rige består ikke i at spise og drikke, men i Retfærdighed og Fred og Glæde i den Helligånd.

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

Thi den, som deri tjener Kristus, er velbehagelig for Gud og tækkelig for Menneskene.

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

Derfor, lader os tragte efter det, som tjener til Fred og indbyrdes Opbyggelse!

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

Nedbryd ikke Guds Værk for Mads Skyld! Vel er alt rent, men det er ondt for det Menneske, som spiser med Anstød.

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.

Det er rigtigt ikke at spise Kød eller at drikke Vin eller at gøre noget, hvoraf din Broder tager Anstød.

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

Den Tro, du har, hav den hos dig selv for Gud! Salig er den, som ikke dømmer sig selv i det, som han vælger.

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

Men den, som tvivler, når han spiser, han er domfældt, fordi det ikke er at Tro; men alt det, som ikke er af Tro, er Synd.
