¹Him that is weak in the faith receive ye, but not to doubtful disputations.

¹ Boro kaŋ sinda gaabi cimbeeri* ra, araŋ m'a ta, amma manti zama araŋ ma kakaw sikka sanni boŋ.

²For one believeth that he may eat all things: another, who is weak, eateth herbs.

² Boro fo gonda cimbeeri kaŋ ga naŋ a ma hay kulu ŋwa. Afo mo, kaŋ sinda gaabi, a si ŋwa kala kassi nda tuuri izey baano-baaney.

³Let not him that eateth despise him that eateth not; and let not him which eateth not judge him that eateth: for God hath received him.

³ Boro kaŋ ga hay kulu ŋwa ma si donda bora kaŋ siino ga ŋwa. Bora din kaŋ siino ga ŋwa mo ma si ŋwaakwa ciinay da taali, zama Irikoy n'a ta.

⁴Who art thou that judgest another man's servant? to his own master he standeth or falleth. Yea, he shall be holden up: for God is able to make him stand.

⁴ Nin no may kaŋ ga boro fo tam ciiti? D'a kay wala nd'a kaŋ, woodin a koyo sanni no. Amma a ga kay, zama Rabbi gonda dabari k'a kayandi.

⁵One man esteemeth one day above another: another esteemeth every day alike. Let every man be fully persuaded in his own mind.

⁵ Boro fo ga zaari fo lasaabu kaŋ a bisa zaari fo beeray. Afo mo koyne ga lasaabu kaŋ zaari kulu ga saba. Boro kulu ma woodin tabbatandi nga bina ra.

⁶He that regardeth the day, regardeth it unto the Lord; and he that regardeth not the day, to the Lord he doth not regard it. He that eateth, eateth to the Lord, for he giveth God thanks; and he that eateth not, to the Lord he eateth not, and giveth God thanks.

⁶ Boro kaŋ goono ga zaari fo haggoy, Rabbi se no a goono g'a haggoy. Boro kaŋ goono ga hay kulu ŋwa, Rabbi se no a goono g'a ŋwa, zama a ga Irikoy saabu. Boro kaŋ siino ga ŋwa mo, Rabbi se no a siino ga ŋwa, a ga Irikoy saabu mo.

⁷For none of us liveth to himself, and no man dieth to himself.

⁷ Zama iri boro fo kulu si funa nga boŋ se, boro kulu mo si bu nga boŋ se.

⁸For whether we live, we live unto the Lord; and whether we die, we die unto the Lord: whether we live therefore, or die, we are the Lord's.

⁸ D'iri go fundi ra, Rabbi se no iri goono ga funa. D'iri bu mo, Rabbi se no iri ga bu. Yaadin gaa d'iri funa wala nd'iri bu, iri ya Rabbi wane yaŋ no.

⁹For to this end Christ both died, and rose, and revived, that he might be Lord both of the dead and living.

⁹ Daliili kaŋ se Almasihu bu, a ye ka funa mo, nga neeya: zama nga ma ciya buukoy da fundikooney kulu se Rabbi.

¹⁰But why dost thou judge thy brother? or why dost thou set at nought thy brother? for we shall all stand before the judgment seat of Christ.

¹⁰ Amma nin: ifo se no ni goono ga ni nya-izo guna nda taali? Wala ni mo koyne: ifo se no ni goono ga donda ni nya-izo? Zama iri boro kulu ga kay Irikoy ciiti karga jine!

¹¹For it is written, As I live, saith the Lord, every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall confess to God.

¹¹ Zama i n'a hantum ka ne: Rabbi ne: «Ay ze d'ay fundo, ay se no kange kulu ga gurfa. Deene kulu mo ga Irikoy _darza|_ seeda.»

¹²So then every one of us shall give account of himself to God.

¹² Yaadin no, iri boro fo kulu ga kande nga bumbo te-goyey Irikoy jine.

¹³Let us not therefore judge one another any more: but judge this rather, that no man put a stumblingblock or an occasion to fall in his brother's way.

¹³ Yaadin gaa, iri ma si ye ka care guna nda taali. Amma wa bara nda miila woone: boro kulu ma si hartayaŋ hari daŋ nga nya-izo jine, wala hay fo kaŋ g'a zeeri.

¹⁴I know, and am persuaded by the Lord Jesus, that there is nothing unclean of itself: but to him that esteemeth any thing to be unclean, to him it is unclean.

¹⁴ Ay bay, ay tabbat mo Rabbi Yesu ra kaŋ hay kulu si no kaŋ ga harram da nga boŋ. Kala day, boro se kaŋ g'a lasaabu harram hari, to, bora din se kay, a ga harram.

¹⁵But if thy brother be grieved with thy meat, now walkest thou not charitably. Destroy not him with thy meat, for whom Christ died.

¹⁵ Amma nda ŋwaari fo sabbay se ni nya-izo bina sara, manti baakasinay goy no ni goono ga te koyne. Ni ŋwaaro sabbay se ni ma si boro kaŋ se Almasihu bu halaci.

¹⁶Let not then your good be evil spoken of:

¹⁶ Wa si naŋ haŋ kaŋ ga boori araŋ se ma ciya laala ciinay hari.

¹⁷For the kingdom of God is not meat and drink; but righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost.

¹⁷ Zama Irikoy koytara manti ŋwa da haŋ no, amma adilitaray no, da laakal kanay, da farhã Biya Hanno ra.

¹⁸For he that in these things serveth Christ is acceptable to God, and approved of men.

¹⁸ Zama boro kaŋ ga may Almasihu se yaadin cine ga kaan Irikoy se, yaddante mo no borey jine.

¹⁹Let us therefore follow after the things which make for peace, and things wherewith one may edify another.

¹⁹ Yaadin gaa, iri ma ceeci haŋ kaŋ ga laakal kanay tonton, da mo haŋ kaŋ ga care no jina-koyyaŋ.

²⁰For meat destroy not the work of God. All things indeed are pure; but it is evil for that man who eateth with offence.

²⁰ }waari fo sabbay se ni ma si Irikoy goyo zeeri. Daahir, hay kulu ga halal. Kulu nda yaadin a si boori boro se kaŋ g'a ŋwa ka ciya katiyaŋ hari boro fo se.

²¹It is good neither to eat flesh, nor to drink wine, nor any thing whereby thy brother stumbleth, or is offended, or is made weak.

²¹ Haŋ kaŋ ga boori ga ti boro ma si ham ŋwa, wala a ma si duvan* haŋ, wala mo a ma si hay kulu te kaŋ ga naŋ ni nya-izo ma kati.

²²Hast thou faith? have it to thyself before God. Happy is he that condemneth not himself in that thing which he alloweth.

²² Cimbeero* kaŋ ni gonda, ni m'a gaay ni boŋ se Irikoy jine. Albarkante no boro kaŋ si nga boŋ kalima haya din ra kaŋ a goono ga yadda nd'a ka te.

²³And he that doubteth is damned if he eat, because he eateth not of faith: for whatsoever is not of faith is sin.

²³ Amma boro kaŋ ga sikka du ciiti d'a ŋwa, zama a siino ga ŋwa cimbeeri boŋ. Hay kulu mo kaŋ manti cimbeeri do no a fun ya zunubi no.
