Poslanica Rimljanima 14

Biblija Hrvatski	NEW AMERICAN BIBLE
1 Slaboga u vjeri prigrlite, ali ne da se prepirete o mišljenjima.	1 Welcome anyone who is weak in faith, but not for disputes over opinions.
2 Netko vjeruje da smije sve jesti, slabi opet jede samo povrće.	2 One person believes that one may eat anything, while the weak person eats only vegetables.
3 Tko jede, neka ne prezire onoga tko ne jede; tko pak ne jede, neka ne sudi onoga tko jede. Ta Bog ga je prigrlio.	3 The one who eats must not despise the one who abstains, and the one who abstains must not pass judgment on the one who eats; for God has welcomed him.
4 Tko si ti da sudiš tuđega slugu? Svojemu Gospodaru i stoji i pada! A stajat će jer moćan je Gospodin da ga podrži.	4 Who are you to pass judgment on someone else's servant? Before his own master he stands or falls. And he will be upheld, for the Lord is able to make him stand.
5 Netko razlikuje dan od dana, nekomu je opet svaki dan jednak. Samo nek je svatko posve uvjeren u svoje mišljenje.	5 (For) one person considers one day more important than another, while another person considers all days alike. Let everyone be fully persuaded in his own mind.
6 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.	6 Whoever observes the day, observes it for the Lord. Also whoever eats, eats for the Lord, since he gives thanks to God; while whoever abstains, abstains for the Lord and gives thanks to God.
7 Jer nitko od nas sebi ne živi, nitko sebi ne umire.	7 None of us lives for oneself, and no one dies for oneself.
8 Doista, ako živimo, Gospodinu živimo, i ako umiremo, Gospodinu umiremo. Živimo li dakle ili umiremo – Gospodinovi smo.	8 For if we live, we live for the Lord, and if we die, we die for the Lord; so then, whether we live or die, we are the Lord's.
9 Ta Krist zato umrije i oživje da gospodar bude i mrtvima i živima.	9 For this is why Christ died and came to life, that he might be Lord of both the dead and the living.
10 A ti, što sudiš brata svoga? Ili ti, što prezireš brata svoga? Ta svi ćemo stati pred sudište Božje.	10 Why then do you judge your brother? Or you, why do you look down on your brother? For we shall all stand before the judgment seat of God;
11 Jer pisano je: Života mi moga, govori Gospodin, prignut će se preda mnom svako koljeno i svaki će jezik priznati Boga.	11 for it is written: "As I live, says the Lord, every knee shall bend before me, and every tongue shall give praise to God."
12 Svaki će dakle od nas za sebe Bogu dati račun.	12 So (then) each of us shall give an account of himself (to God).
13 Dakle, ne sudimo više jedan drugoga, nego radije sudite o tome da ne valja postavljati bratu stupice ili spoticala.	13 Then let us no longer judge one another, but rather resolve never to put a stumbling block or hindrance in the way of a brother.
14 Znam i uvjeren sam u Gospodinu: ništa samo od sebe nije nečisto. Samo je onomu nečisto tko to smatra nečistim.	14 I know and am convinced in the Lord Jesus that nothing is unclean in itself; still, it is unclean for someone who thinks it unclean.
15 Doista, ako je poradi hrane tvoj brat ražalošćen, već nisi na putu ljubavi. Ne upropašćuj tom svojom hranom onoga za koga je Krist umro!	15 If your brother is being hurt by what you eat, your conduct is no longer in accord with love. Do not because of your food destroy him for whom Christ died.
16 Nemojte da se pogrđuje vaše dobro!	16 So do not let your good be reviled.
17 Ta kraljevstvo Božje nije jelo ili piće, nego pravednost, mir i radost u Duhu Svetome.	17 For the kingdom of God is not a matter of food and drink, but of righteousness, peace, and joy in the holy Spirit;
18 Da, tko tako Kristu služi, mio je Bogu i cijene ga ljudi.	18 whoever serves Christ in this way is pleasing to God and approved by others.
19 Nastojmo stoga promicati mir i uzajamno izgrađivanje!	19 Let us then pursue what leads to peace and to building up one another.
20 Ne razaraj djela Božjega poradi hrane! Sve je, istina, čisto, ali je zlo za onoga tko na sablazan jede.	20 For the sake of food, do not destroy the work of God. Everything is indeed clean, but it is wrong for anyone to become a stumbling block by eating;
21 Dobro je ne jesti mesa i ne piti vina i ne uzimati ništa o što se tvoj brat spotiče.	21 it is good not to eat meat or drink wine or do anything that causes your brother to stumble.
22 Ti imaš uvjerenje. Za sebe ga imaj pred Bogom. Blago onomu tko samoga sebe ne osuđuje u onom na što se odlučuje!	22 Keep the faith (that) you have to yourself in the presence of God; blessed is the one who does not condemn himself for what he approves.
23 Jede li tko dvoumeći, osudio se jer ne radi iz uvjerenja. A sve što nije iz uvjerenja, grijeh je.	23 But whoever has doubts is condemned if he eats, because this is not from faith; for whatever is not from faith is sin.
