ASV - Romans - 14

14:1  But him that is weak in faith receive ye, yet not for decision of scruples.

14:2  One man hath faith to eat all things: but he that is weak eateth herbs.

14:3  Let not him that eateth set at nought him that eateth not; and let not him that eateth not judge him that eateth: for God hath received him.

14:4  Who art thou that judgest the servant of another? to his own lord he standeth or falleth. Yea, he shall be made to stand; for the Lord hath power to make him stand.

14:5  One man esteemeth one day above another: another esteemeth every day alike. Let each man be fully assured in his own mind.

14:6  He that regardeth the day, regardeth it unto the Lord: and he that eateth, eateth unto the Lord, for he giveth God thanks; and he that eateth not, unto the Lord he eateth not, and giveth God thanks.

14:7  For none of us liveth to himself, and none dieth to himself.

14:8  For whether we live, we live unto the Lord; or whether we die, we die unto the Lord: whether we live therefore, or die, we are the Lord’s.

14:9  For to this end Christ died and lived again, that he might be Lord of both the dead and the living.

14:10  But thou, why dost thou judge thy brother? or thou again, why dost thou set at nought thy brother? for we shall all stand before the judgment-seat of God.

14:11  For it is written, As I live, saith the Lord, to me every knee shall bow, And every tongue shall confess to God.

14:12  So then each one of us shall give account of himself to God.

14:13  Let us not therefore judge one another any more: but judge ye this rather, that no man put a stumblingblock in his brother’s way, or an occasion of falling.

14:14  I know, and am persuaded in the Lord Jesus, that nothing is unclean of itself: save that to him who accounteth anything to be unclean, to him it is unclean.

14:15  For if because of meat thy brother is grieved, thou walkest no longer in love. Destroy not with thy meat him for whom Christ died.

14:16  Let not then your good be evil spoken of:

14:17  for the kingdom of God is not eating and drinking, but righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit.

14:18  For he that herein serveth Christ is well-pleasing to God, and approved of men.

14:19  So then let us follow after things which make for peace, and things whereby we may edify one another.

14:20  Overthrow not for meat’s sake the work of God. All things indeed are clean; howbeit it is evil for that man who eateth with offence.

14:21  It is good not to eat flesh, nor to drink wine, nor to do anything whereby thy brother stumbleth.

14:22  The faith which thou hast, have thou to thyself before God. Happy is he that judgeth not himself in that which he approveth.

14:23  But he that doubteth is condemned if he eat, because he eateth not of faith; and whatsoever is not of faith is sin.
