Romans 14

1 Accept him whose faith is weak, without passing judgment on his opinions.

1 你们要接纳信心软弱的弟兄姊妹，不要因为看法不同便彼此争辩。

2 For one person has faith to eat all things, while another, who is weak, eats only vegetables.

2 有人相信什么都可以吃，但信心软弱的人只吃素菜。

3 The one who eats everything must not belittle the one who does not, and the one who does not eat everything must not judge the one who does, for God has accepted him.

3 吃的人不可轻看不吃的人，不吃的人也不可论断吃的人，因为两者上帝都接纳。

4 Who are you to judge someone else’s servant? To his own master he stands or falls. And he will stand, for the Lord is able to make him stand.

4 你是谁，竟然论断别人的仆人？他做得是否合宜，自然有他的主人负责。他必能做得合宜，因为主能使他做得合宜。

5 One person regards a certain day above the others, while someone else considers every day alike. Each one should be fully convinced in his own mind.

5 有人认为这日比那日好，有人认为天天都一样，各人应该照着自己的信念拿定主意。

6 He who observes a special day does so to the Lord; he who eats does so to the Lord, for he gives thanks to God; and he who abstains does so to the Lord and gives thanks to God.

6 守日子的人是为主而守，吃的人是为主而吃，因为他感谢上帝；不吃的人是为主不吃，他也同样感谢上帝。

7 For none of us lives to himself alone, and none of us dies to himself alone.

7 因为我们没有人为自己活，也没有人为自己死。

8 If we live, we live to the Lord, and if we die, we die to the Lord. So whether we live or die, we belong to the Lord.

8 我们活是为主而活，死是为主而死。因此，我们无论生死都是属主的人。

9 For this reason Christ died and returned to life, that He might be the Lord of both the dead and the living.

9 正是为这个缘故，基督死了，又复活了，好做死人和活人的主。

10 Why, then, do you judge your brother? Or why do you belittle your brother? For we will all stand before God’s judgment seat.

10 那么，你为什么论断弟兄姊妹呢？为什么轻视弟兄姊妹呢？将来我们都要一同站在上帝的审判台前。

11 It is written: “As surely as I live, says the Lord, every knee will bow before Me; every tongue will confess to God.”

11 圣经上说：“主说，‘我凭我的永恒起誓，万膝必向我跪拜，万口必称颂上帝。’”

12 So then, each of us will give an account of himself to God.

12 这样看来，我们各人都要向上帝交账。

13 Therefore let us stop judging one another. Instead, make up your mind not to put any stumbling block or obstacle in your brother’s way.

13 所以，我们不可再互相论断，要下定决心不绊倒弟兄姊妹。

14 I am convinced and fully persuaded in the Lord Jesus that nothing is unclean in itself. But if anyone regards something as unclean, then for him it is unclean.

14 我知道并靠着主耶稣深信，没有什么是不洁净的，但若有人以为某物不洁净，那对他来说就不洁净。

15 If your brother is distressed by what you eat, you are no longer acting in love. Do not by your eating destroy your brother, for whom Christ died.

15 你若因为吃的令弟兄姊妹伤心，就不是凭爱心行事。你不可因为食物而毁了基督舍命救赎的人。

16 Do not allow what you consider good, then, to be spoken of as evil.

16 所以，不要让你们认为好的事被别人诟病。

17 For the kingdom of God is not a matter of eating and drinking, but of righteousness, peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit.

17 因为上帝的国不是关乎吃什么喝什么，而是关乎公义、平安和圣灵所赐的喜乐。

18 For whoever serves Christ in this way is pleasing to God and approved by men.

18 以这样的态度事奉基督的人，才会得到上帝的喜悦和大家的称赞。

19 So then, let us pursue what leads to peace and to mutual edification.

19 所以，我们要努力追求使人和睦及彼此造就的事。

20 Do not destroy the work of God for the sake of food. All food is clean, but it is wrong for a man to let his eating be a stumbling block.

20 不可因食物问题而破坏上帝的工作。所有的食物固然都是洁净的，但因所吃的食物绊倒别人就不对了。

21 It is better not to eat meat or drink wine or to do anything to cause your brother to stumble.

21 无论是吃肉、喝酒还是做任何别的事，如果会绊倒弟兄姊妹，就应该一概不做。

22 Keep your belief about such matters between yourself and God. Blessed is the one who does not condemn himself by what he approves.

22 你有信心认为可以做的，只要你和上帝知道就可以了。人如果在自己认为可以做的事上问心无愧，就有福了。

23 But the one who has doubts is condemned if he eats, because his eating is not from faith; and everything that is not from faith is sin.

23 人如果心里疑惑，却仍然吃，就有罪了，因为他不是凭信心吃。凡不凭信心去做的，就是犯罪。
