Romans 14 Young's Literal Translation
Audio: World English Bible (WEB), read by Winfred W. Henson · About the recordings
1 And him who is weak in the faith receive ye — not to determinations of reasonings;
1 RECIBID al flaco en la fe, [pero] no para contiendas de disputas.
2 one doth believe that he may eat all things — and he who is weak doth eat herbs;
2 Porque uno cree que se ha de comer de todas cosas: otro que es débil, come legumbres.
3 let not him who is eating despise him who is not eating: and let not him who is not eating judge him who is eating, for God did receive him.
3 El que come, no menosprecie al que no come: y el que no come, no juzgue al que come; porque Dios le ha levantado.
4 Thou — who art thou that art judging another's domestic? to his own master he doth stand or fall; and he shall be made to stand, for God is able to make him stand.
4 ¿Tú quién eres que juzgas al siervo ajeno? para su señor está en pie, ó cae: mas se afirmará; que poderoso es el Señor para afirmarle.
5 One doth judge one day above another, and another doth judge every day [alike]; let each in his own mind be fully assured.
5 Uno hace diferencia entre día y día; otro juzga [iguales] todos los días. Cada uno esté asegurado en su ánimo.
6 He who is regarding the day, to the Lord he doth regard [it], and he who is not regarding the day, to the Lord he doth not regard [it]. He who is eating, to the Lord he doth eat, for he doth give thanks to God; and he who is not eating, to the Lord he doth not eat, and doth give thanks to God.
6 El que hace caso del día, háce[lo] para el Señor: y el que no hace caso del día, no lo hace para el Señor. El que come, come para el Señor, porque da gracias á Dios; y el que no come, no come para el Señor, y da gracias á Dios.
7 For none of us to himself doth live, and none to himself doth die;
7 Porque ninguno de nosotros vive para sí, y ninguno muere para sí.
8 for both, if we may live, to the Lord we live; if also we may die, to the Lord we die; both then if we may live, also if we may die, we are the Lord's;
8 Que si vivimos, para el Señor vivimos; y si morimos, para el Señor morimos. Así que, ó que vivamos, ó que muramos, del Señor somos.
9 for because of this Christ both died and rose again, and lived again, that both of dead and of living he may be Lord.
9 Porque Cristo para esto murió, y resucitó, y volvió á vivir, para ser Señor así de los muertos como de los que viven.
10 And thou, why dost thou judge thy brother? or again, thou, why dost thou set at nought thy brother? for we shall all stand at the tribunal of the Christ;
10 Mas tú ¿por qué juzgas á tu hermano? ó tú también, ¿por qué menosprecias á tu hermano? porque todos hemos de estar ante el tribunal de Cristo.
11 for it hath been written, 'I live! saith the Lord — to Me bow shall every knee, and every tongue shall confess to God;'
11 Porque escrito está: Vivo yo, dice el Señor, que á mí se doblará toda rodilla, y toda lengua confesará á Dios.
12 so, then, each of us concerning himself shall give reckoning to God;
12 De manera que, cada uno de nosotros dará á Dios razón de sí.
13 no longer, therefore, may we judge one another, but this judge ye rather, not to put a stumbling-stone before the brother, or an offence.
13 Así que, no juzguemos más los unos de los otros: antes bien juzgad de no poner tropiezo ó escándalo al hermano.
14 I have known, and am persuaded, in the Lord Jesus, that nothing [is] unclean of itself, except to him who is reckoning anything to be unclean — to that one [it is] unclean;
14 Yo sé, y confío en el Señor Jesús, que de suyo nada hay inmundo: mas á aquel que piensa alguna cosa ser inmunda, para él es inmunda.
15 and if through victuals thy brother is grieved, no more dost thou walk according to love; do not with thy victuals destroy that one for whom Christ died.
15 Empero si por causa de la comida tu hermano es contristado, ya no andas conforme á la caridad. No arruines con tu comida á aquél por el cual Cristo murió.
16 Let not, then, your good be evil spoken of,
16 No sea pues blasfemado vuestro bien:
17 for the reign of God is not eating and drinking, but righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit;
17 Que el reino de Dios no es comida ni bebida, sino justicia y paz y gozo por el Espíritu Santo.
18 for he who in these things is serving the Christ, [is] acceptable to God and approved of men.
18 Porque el que en esto sirve á Cristo, agrada á Dios, y es acepto á los hombres.
19 So, then, the things of peace may we pursue, and the things of building up one another;
19 Así que, sigamos lo que hace á la paz, y á la edificación de los unos á los otros.
20 for the sake of victuals cast not down the work of God; all things, indeed, [are] pure, but evil [is] to the man who is eating through stumbling.
20 No destruyas la obra de Dios por causa de la comida. Todas las cosas á la verdad son limpias: mas malo es al hombre que come con escándalo.
21 Right [it is] not to eat flesh, nor to drink wine, nor to [do anything] in which thy brother doth stumble, or is made to fall, or is weak.
21 Bueno es no comer carne, ni beber vino, ni [nada] en que tu hermano tropiece, ó se ofenda, ó sea debilitado.
22 Thou hast faith! to thyself have [it] before God; happy is he who is not judging himself in what he doth approve,
22 ¿Tienes tú fe? Tenla para contigo delante de Dios. Bienaventurado el que no se condena á sí mismo con lo que aprueba.
23 and he who is making a difference, if he may eat, hath been condemned, because [it is] not of faith; and all that [is] not of faith is sin.
23 Mas el que hace diferencia, si comiere, es condenado, porque no [comió] por fe: y todo lo que no es de fe, es pecado.

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).
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?

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 …
… hath raised Him from the dead, thou shall be saved." 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 …
This it was, verily, "Him that is weak in the faith, receive ye;" which he applied to himself, and discovered to me.

Because Paul also saith this selfsame thing: or rather, there too it is Christ, speaking by Paul, and saying, "Why dost thou judge thy brother?
