1Now him that is weak in the faith receive, not to [the] determining of questions of reasoning.
1 Boro kaŋ sinda gaabi cimbeeri* ra, araŋ m'a ta, amma manti zama araŋ ma kakaw sikka sanni boŋ.
2One man is assured that he may eat all things; but the weak eats 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 eats make little of him that eats not; and let not him that eats not judge him that eats: for God has 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 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.
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 esteems day more than day; another esteems every day [alike]. Let each 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 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.
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 lives to himself, and none dies to himself.
7 Zama iri boro fo kulu si funa nga boŋ se, boro kulu mo si bu nga boŋ se.
8For 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.
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 has died and lived [again], that he might rule over both 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 thou, why judgest thou thy brother? or again, thou, why dost thou make little of thy brother? for we shall all be placed before the judgment-seat of God.
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, *I* live, saith [the] Lord, that to me shall bow every knee, 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 each of us shall give an account concerning himself to God.
12 Yaadin no, iri boro fo kulu ga kande nga bumbo te-goyey Irikoy jine.
13Let us no longer therefore judge one another; but judge ye this rather, not to put a stumbling-block or a fall-trap before his brother.
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 in the Lord Jesus, that nothing is unclean of itself; except to him who reckons anything to be unclean, to that man [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.
15For if on account of meat thy brother is grieved, thou walkest no longer according to love. Destroy not him with thy meat for whom Christ has 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 eating and drinking, but righteousness, and peace, and joy in [the] Holy Spirit.
17 Zama Irikoy koytara manti ŋwa da haŋ no, amma adilitaray no, da laakal kanay, da farhã Biya Hanno ra.
18For he that in this serves the 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.
19So then let us pursue the things which tend to peace, and things whereby one shall build up another.
19 Yaadin gaa, iri ma ceeci haŋ kaŋ ga laakal kanay tonton, da mo haŋ kaŋ ga care no jina-koyyaŋ.
20For the sake of meat do not destroy the work of God. All things indeed [are] pure; but [it is] evil to that man who eats while stumbling [in doing so].
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.
21[It is] right not to eat meat, nor drink wine, nor [do anything] in which thy brother stumbles, or is offended, or is 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. Blessed [is] he who does not judge himself in what he allows.
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.
23But he that doubts, if he eat, is condemned; because [it is] not of faith; but whatever [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.
