PT1904 Patriarchal Text 1904 (accented, eBible edition)
1 И҆знемога́ющаго же въ вѣ́рѣ прїе́млите, не въ сомнѣ́нїе помышле́нїи.
1 Now accept one who is weak in faith, but not for disputes over opinions.
1 Τὸν δὲ ἀσθενοῦντα τῇ πίστει προσλαμβάνεσθε, μὴ εἰς διακρίσεις διαλογισμῶν.
2 Ѻ҆́въ бо вѣ́рꙋетъ ꙗ҆́сти всѧ̑, а҆ и҆знемога́ѧй ѕє́лїѧ (да) ꙗ҆́стъ.
2 One man has faith to eat all things, but he who is weak eats only vegetables.
2 ὃς μὲν πιστεύει φαγεῖν πάντα, ὁ δὲ ἀσθενῶν λάχανα ἐσθίει.
3 Ꙗ҆ды́й не ꙗ҆дꙋ́щагѡ да не ᲂу҆корѧ́етъ: и҆ не ꙗ҆ды́й ꙗ҆дꙋ́щагѡ да не ѡ҆сꙋжда́етъ: бг҃ъ бо є҆го̀ прїѧ́тъ.
3 Don’t let him who eats despise him who doesn’t eat. Don’t let him who doesn’t eat judge him who eats, for God has accepted him.
3 ὁ ἐσθίων τὸν μὴ ἐσθίοντα μὴ ἐξουθενείτω, καὶ ὁ μὴ ἐσθίων τὸν ἐσθίοντα μὴ κρινέτω· ὁ Θεὸς γὰρ αὐτὸν προσελάβετο.
4 Ты̀ кто̀ є҆сѝ сꙋдѧ́й чꙋжде́мꙋ рабꙋ̀; Своемꙋ̀ гдⷭ҇еви стои́тъ, и҆лѝ па́даетъ. Ста́нетъ же, си́ленъ бо є҆́сть бг҃ъ поста́вити є҆го̀.
4 Who are you who judge another’s servant? To his own lord he stands or falls. Yes, he will be made to stand, for God has power to make him stand.
4 σὺ τίς εἶ ὁ κρίνων ἀλλότριον οἰκέτην; τῷ ἰδίῳ Κυρίῳ στήκει ἢ πίπτει· σταθήσεται δέ· δυνατὸς γάρ ἐστιν ὁ Θεὸς στῆσαι αὐτόν.
5 Ѻ҆́въ ᲂу҆́бѡ разсꙋжда́етъ де́нь чрез̾ де́нь, ѻ҆́въ же сꙋ́дитъ на всѧ́къ де́нь. Кі́иждо свое́ю мы́слїю да и҆звѣствꙋ́етсѧ.
5 One man esteems one day as more important. Another esteems every day alike. Let each man be fully assured in his own mind.
5 ὃς μὲν κρίνει ἡμέραν παρ᾽ ἡμέραν, ὃς δὲ κρίνει πᾶσαν ἡμέραν. ἕκαστος ἐν τῷ ἰδίῳ νοῒ πληροφορείσθω.
6 Мꙋ́дрствꙋѧй де́нь, гдⷭ҇еви мꙋ́дрствꙋетъ: и҆ не мꙋ́дрствꙋѧй де́нь, гдⷭ҇еви не мꙋ́дрствꙋетъ. Ꙗ҆ды́й, гдⷭ҇еви ꙗ҆́стъ, благодари́тъ бо бг҃а: и҆ не ꙗ҆ды́й, гдⷭ҇еви не ꙗ҆́стъ, и҆ благодари́тъ бг҃а.
6 He who observes the day, observes it to the Lord; and he who does not observe the day, to the Lord he does not observe it. He who eats, eats to the Lord, for he gives God thanks. He who doesn’t eat, to the Lord he doesn’t eat, and gives God thanks.
6 ὁ φρονῶν τὴν ἡμέραν Κυρίῳ φρονεῖ, καὶ ὁ μὴ φρονῶν τὴν ἡμέραν Κυρίῳ οὐ φρονεῖ. καὶ ὁ ἐσθίων Κυρίῳ ἐσθίει· εὐχαριστεῖ γὰρ τῷ Θεῷ· καὶ ὁ μὴ ἐσθίων Κυρίῳ οὐκ ἐσθίει, καὶ εὐχαριστεῖ τῷ Θεῷ.
7 Никто́же бо на́съ себѣ̀ живе́тъ, и҆ никто́же себѣ̀ ᲂу҆мира́етъ:
7 For none of us lives to himself, and none dies to himself.
7 οὐδεὶς γὰρ ἡμῶν ἑαυτῷ ζῇ καὶ οὐδεὶς ἑαυτῷ ἀποθνήσκει·
8 а҆́ще бо живе́мъ, гдⷭ҇еви живе́мъ, а҆́ще же ᲂу҆мира́емъ, гдⷭ҇еви ᲂу҆мира́емъ: а҆́ще ᲂу҆̀бо живе́мъ, а҆́ще ᲂу҆мира́емъ, гдⷭ҇ни є҆смы̀.
8 For if we live, we live to the Lord. Or if we die, we die to the Lord. If therefore we live or die, we are the Lord’s.
8 ἐάν τε γὰρ ζῶμεν, τῷ Κυρίῳ ζῶμεν, ἐάν τε ἀποθνήσκωμεν, τῷ Κυρίῳ ἀποθνήσκομεν. ἐάν τε οὖν ζῶμεν ἐάν τε ἀποθνήσκωμεν, τοῦ Κυρίου ἐσμέν.
9 На сїе́ бо хрⷭ҇то́съ и҆ ᲂу҆́мре и҆ воскр҃се и҆ ѡ҆живѐ, да и҆ ме́ртвыми и҆ живы́ми ѡ҆блада́етъ.
9 For to this end Christ died, rose, and lived again, that he might be Lord of both the dead and the living.
9 εἰς τοῦτο γὰρ Χριστὸς καὶ ἀπέθανε καὶ ἀνέστη καὶ ἔζησεν, ἵνα καὶ νεκρῶν καὶ ζώντων κυριεύσῃ.
10 Ты́ же почто̀ ѡ҆сꙋжда́еши бра́та твоего̀, и҆лѝ ты̀ что̀ ᲂу҆ничижа́еши бра́та твоего̀; Вси́ бо предста́немъ сꙋди́щꙋ хрⷭ҇то́вꙋ.
10 But you, why do you judge your brother? Or you again, why do you despise your brother? For we will all stand before the judgment seat of Christ.
10 Σὺ δὲ τί κρίνεις τὸν ἀδελφόν σου; ἢ καὶ σὺ τί ἐξουθενεῖς τὸν ἀδελφόν σου; πάντες γὰρ παραστησόμεθα τῷ βήματι τοῦ Χριστοῦ.
11 Пи́сано бо є҆́сть: живꙋ̀ а҆́зъ, гл҃етъ гдⷭ҇ь, ꙗ҆́кѡ мнѣ̀ покло́нитсѧ всѧ́ко колѣ́но, и҆ всѧ́къ ѧ҆зы́къ и҆сповѣ́стсѧ бг҃ови.
11 For it is written, “‘As I live,’ says the Lord, ‘to me every knee will bow. Every tongue will confess to God.’”
11 γέγραπται γάρ· ζῶ ἐγώ, λέγει Κύριος, ὅτι ἐμοὶ κάμψει πᾶν γόνυ, καὶ πᾶσα γλῶσσα ἐξομολογήσεται τῷ Θεῷ.
12 Тѣ́мже ᲂу҆̀бо кі́йждо на́съ ѡ҆ себѣ̀ сло́во да́стъ бг҃ꙋ.
12 So then each one of us will give account of himself to God.
12 ἄρα οὖν ἕκαστος ἡμῶν περὶ ἑαυτοῦ λόγον δώσει τῷ Θεῷ.
13 Не ктомꙋ̀ ᲂу҆̀бо дрꙋ́гъ дрꙋ́га ѡ҆сꙋжда́емъ, но сїѐ па́че сꙋди́те, є҆́же не полага́ти претыка́нїѧ бра́тꙋ и҆лѝ собла́зна.
13 Therefore let’s not judge one another any more, but judge this rather, that no man put a stumbling block in his brother’s way, or an occasion for falling.
13 Μηκέτι οὖν ἀλλήλους κρίνωμεν, ἀλλὰ τοῦτο κρίνατε μᾶλλον, τὸ μὴ τιθέναι πρόσκομμα τῷ ἀδελφῷ ἢ σκάνδαλον.
14 Вѣ́мъ и҆ и҆звѣще́нъ є҆́смь ѡ҆ хрⷭ҇тѣ̀ і҆и҃сѣ, ꙗ҆́кѡ ничто́же скве́рно са́мо собо́ю: то́чїю помышлѧ́ющемꙋ что̀ скве́рно бы́ти, ѻ҆́номꙋ скве́рно є҆́сть.
14 I know and am persuaded in the Lord Jesus that nothing is unclean of itself; except that to him who considers anything to be unclean, to him it is unclean.
14 οἶδα καὶ πέπεισμαι ἐν Κυρίῳ Ἰησοῦ ὅτι οὐδὲν κοινὸν δι᾽ αὐτοῦ· εἰ μὴ τῷ λογιζομένῳ τι κοινὸν εἶναι, ἐκείνῳ κοινόν.
15 А҆́ще же бра́шна ра́ди бра́тъ тво́й скорби́тъ, ᲂу҆жѐ не по любвѝ хо́диши: не бра́шномъ твои́мъ того̀ погꙋблѧ́й, за него́же хрⷭ҇то́съ ᲂу҆́мре.
15 Yet if because of food your brother is grieved, you walk no longer in love. Don’t destroy with your food him for whom Christ died.
15 εἰ δὲ διὰ βρῶμα ὁ ἀδελφός σου λυπεῖται, οὐκέτι κατὰ ἀγάπην περιπατεῖς. μὴ τῷ βρώματί σου ἐκεῖνον ἀπόλλυε, ὑπὲρ οὗ Χριστὸς ἀπέθανε.
16 Да не хꙋли́тсѧ ᲂу҆̀бо ва́ше бл҃го́е.
16 Then don’t let your good be slandered,
16 μὴ βλασφημείσθω οὖν ὑμῶν τὸ ἀγαθόν.
17 Нѣ́сть бо црⷭ҇тво бж҃їе бра́шно и҆ питїѐ, но пра́вда и҆ ми́ръ и҆ ра́дость ѡ҆ дс҃ѣ ст҃ѣ.
17 for God’s Kingdom is not eating and drinking, but righteousness, peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit.
17 οὐ γάρ ἐστιν ἡ βασιλεία τοῦ Θεοῦ βρῶσις καὶ πόσις, ἀλλὰ δικαιοσύνη καὶ εἰρήνη καὶ χαρὰ ἐν Πνεύματι Ἁγίῳ·
18 И҆́же бо си́ми слꙋ́житъ хрⷭ҇то́ви, бл҃гоꙋго́денъ є҆́сть бг҃ови и҆ и҆скꙋ́сенъ человѣ́кѡмъ.
18 For he who serves Christ in these things is acceptable to God and approved by men.
18 ὁ γὰρ ἐν τούτοις δουλεύων τῷ Χριστῷ εὐάρεστος τῷ Θεῷ καὶ δόκιμος τοῖς ἀνθρώποις.
19 Тѣ́мже ᲂу҆̀бо ми́ръ возлю́бимъ и҆ ꙗ҆̀же къ созида́нїю дрꙋ́гъ ко дрꙋ́гꙋ.
19 So then, let’s follow after things which make for peace, and things by which we may build one another up.
19 ἄρα οὖν τὰ τῆς εἰρήνης διώκωμεν καὶ τὰ τῆς οἰκοδομῆς τῆς εἰς ἀλλήλους.
20 Не бра́шна ра́ди разорѧ́й дѣ́ло бж҃їе. Всѧ̑ бо чи̑ста, но ѕло̀ человѣ́кꙋ претыка́нїемъ ꙗ҆дꙋ́щемꙋ:
20 Don’t overthrow God’s work for food’s sake. All things indeed are clean, however it is evil for that man who creates a stumbling block by eating.
20 μὴ ἕνεκεν βρώματος κατάλυε τὸ ἔργον τοῦ Θεοῦ. πάντα μὲν καθαρά, ἀλλὰ κακὸν τῷ ἀνθρώπῳ τῷ διὰ προσκόμματος ἐσθίοντι.
21 добро̀ не ꙗ҆́сти мѧ́съ, нижѐ пи́ти вїна̀, ни ѡ҆ не́мже бра́тъ тво́й претыка́етсѧ и҆лѝ соблазнѧ́етсѧ и҆лѝ и҆знемога́етъ.
21 It is good to not eat meat, drink wine, nor do anything by which your brother stumbles, is offended, or is made weak.
21 καλὸν τὸ μὴ φαγεῖν κρέα μηδὲ πιεῖν οἶνον μηδὲ ἐν ᾧ ὁ ἀδελφός σου προσκόπτει ἢ σκανδαλίζεται ἢ ἀσθενεῖ.
22 Ты̀ вѣ́рꙋ и҆́маши; ѡ҆ себѣ̀ са́мъ и҆мѣ́й пред̾ бг҃омъ. Бл҃же́нъ не ѡ҆сꙋжда́ѧй себѐ, ѡ҆ не́мже и҆скꙋша́етсѧ.
22 Do you have faith? Have it to yourself before God. Happy is he who doesn’t judge himself in that which he approves.
22 σὺ πίστιν ἔχεις; κατὰ σεαυτὸν ἔχε ἐνώπιον τοῦ Θεοῦ. μακάριος ὁ μὴ κρίνων ἑαυτὸν ἐν ᾧ δοκιμάζει.
23 А҆ сомнѧ́ѧйсѧ, а҆́ще ꙗ҆́стъ, ѡ҆сꙋжда́етсѧ, занѐ не ѿ вѣ́ры: всѧ́ко же, є҆́же не ѿ вѣ́ры, грѣ́хъ є҆́сть.
23 But he who doubts is condemned if he eats, because it isn’t of faith; and whatever is not of faith is sin.
23 ὁ δὲ διακρινόμενος ἐὰν φάγῃ, κατακέκριται, ὅτι οὐκ ἐκ πίστεως· πᾶν δὲ ὃ οὐκ ἐκ πίστεως, ἁμαρτία ἐστίν.
24 Могꙋ́щемꙋ же ва́съ ᲂу҆тверди́ти по бл҃говѣствова́нїю моемꙋ̀ и҆ проповѣ́данїю і҆и҃съ хрⷭ҇то́вꙋ, по ѿкрове́нїю та́йны, лѣ́ты вѣ́чными ᲂу҆молча́нныѧ,
24 Now to him who is able to establish you according to my Good News and the preaching of Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of the mystery which has been kept secret through long ages,
24 Τῷ δὲ δυναμένῳ ὑμᾶς στηρίξαι κατὰ τὸ εὐαγγέλιόν μου καὶ τὸ κήρυγμα Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ, κατὰ ἀποκάλυψιν μυστηρίου χρόνοις αἰωνίοις σεσιγημένου,
25 ꙗ҆́вльшїѧсѧ же нн҃ѣ, писа̑нїи прⷪ҇ро́ческими, по повелѣ́нїю вѣ́чнагѡ бг҃а, въ послꙋша́нїе вѣ́ры во всѣ́хъ ꙗ҆зы́цѣхъ позна́вшїѧсѧ,
25 but now is revealed, and by the Scriptures of the prophets, according to the commandment of the eternal God, is made known for obedience of faith to all the nations;
25 φανερωθέντος δὲ νῦν, διά τε γραφῶν προφητικῶν κατ᾽ ἐπιταγὴν τοῦ αἰωνίου Θεοῦ εἰς ὑπακοὴν πίστεως εἰς πάντα τὰ ἔθνη γνωρισθέντος,
26 є҆ди́номꙋ премⷣромꙋ бг҃ꙋ, і҆и҃сомъ хрⷭ҇то́мъ, є҆мꙋ́же сла́ва во вѣ́ки. А҆ми́нь.
26 to the only wise God, through Jesus Christ, to whom be the glory forever! Amen.
26 μόνῳ σοφῷ Θεῷ διὰ Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ, ᾧ ἡ δόξα εἰς τοὺς αἰῶνας· ἀμήν.

What the Fathers said

Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).

How these were chosen

“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).

  1. Commentary 14:1 John Chrysostom, Homilies on Romans (Homily XXV)

    I Am aware that to most what is here said is a difficulty. And therefore I must first give the subject of the whole of this passage, and what he wishes to correct in writing this. What does he wish to correct then?

  2. Quotes verse 14:10–12 Polycarp of Smyrna, Epistle to the Philippians (The Epistle of Polycarp to the Philippians)

    If then we entreat the Lord to forgive us, we ought also ourselves to forgive; for we are before the eyes of our Lord and God, and "we must all appear at the judgment-seat of Christ, and must every one give an account of himself." Let us then serve Him in fear, and with all reverence, even as He Himself …

And he renders the reason why the Son of God did these things, saying, "For to this end Christ both lived, and died, and revived, that He might rule over the living and the dead." And again, writing to the Corinthians, he declares, "But we preach Christ Jesus crucified;" and …
