1. Now him that is weak in the faith receive, not to the determining of questions of reasoning.
2. One man is assured that he may eat all things; but the weak eats herbs.
3. Let not him that eats make little of him that eats not; and let not him that eats not judge him that eats: for God has received him.
4. Who art thou that judgest the servant of another? to his own master he stands or falls. And he shall be made to stand; for the Lord is able to make him stand.
5. One man esteems day more than day; another esteems every day alike. Let each be fully persuaded in his own mind.
6. He that regards the day, regards it to the Lord. And he that eats, eats to the Lord, for he gives God thanks; and he that does not eat, it is to the Lord he does not eat, and gives God thanks.
7. For none of us lives to himself, and none dies to himself.
8. For both if we should live, it is to the Lord we live; and if we should die, it is to the Lord we die: both if we should live then, and if we should die, we are the Lord's.
9. For to this end Christ has died and lived again, that he might rule over both dead and living.
