1 - Now him that is weak in faith, take unto you: not in disputes about thoughts.
2 - For one believeth that he may eat all things: but he that is weak, let him eat herbs.
3 - Let not him that eateth despise him that eateth not: and he that eateth not, let him not judge him that eateth. For God hath taken him to him.
4 - Who art thou that judgest another man's servant? To his own lord he standeth or falleth. And he shall stand: for God is able to make him stand.
5 - For one judgeth between day and day: and another judgeth every day. Let every man abound in his own sense.
6 - He that regardeth the day regardeth it unto the Lord. And he that eateth eateth to the Lord: for he giveth thanks to God. And he that eateth not, to the Lord he eateth not and giveth thanks to God.
7 - For none of us liveth to himself: and no man dieth to himself.
8 - For whether we live, we live unto the Lord: or whether we die, we die unto the Lord. Therefore, whether we live or whether we die, we are the Lord's.
9 - For to this end Christ died and rose again: that he might be Lord both of the dead and of the living.
10 - But thou, why judgest thou thy brother? Or thou, why dost thou despise thy brother? For we shall all stand before the judgment seat of Christ.
11 - For it is written: As I live, saith the Lord, every knee shall bow to me and every tongue shall confess to God.
12 - Therefore every one of us shall render account to God for himself.
13 - Let us not therefore judge one another any more. But judge this rather, that you put not a stumblingblock or a scandal in your brother's way.
14 - I know, and am confident in the Lord Jesus, that nothing is unclean of itself: but to him that esteemeth any thing to be unclean, to him it is unclean.
15 - For if, because of thy meat, thy brother be grieved, thou walkest not now according to charity. Destroy not him with thy meat, for whom Christ died.
16 - Let not then our good be evil spoken of.
17 - For the kingdom of God is not meat and drink: but justice and peace and joy in the Holy Ghost.
18 - For he that in this serveth Christ pleaseth God and is approved of men.
19 - Therefore, let us follow after the things that are of peace and keep the things that are of edification, one towards another.
20 - Destroy not the work of God for meat. All things indeed are clean: but it is evil for that man who eateth with offence.
21 - It is good not to eat flesh and not to drink wine: nor any thing whereby thy brother is offended or scandalized or made weak.
22 - Hast thou faith? Have it to thyself before God. Blessed is he that condemneth not himself in that which he alloweth.
23 - But he that discerneth, if he eat, is condemned; because not of faith. For all that is not of faith is sin.
