¹Zvino usina simba parutendo mugamuchirei, kwete negakava pamaonero.

¹Now accept one who is weak in faith, but not for disputes over opinions.

²Mumwe unotenda kuti ungadya zvinhu zvose; asi usina simba unodya miriwo.

²One man has faith to eat all things, but he who is weak eats only vegetables.

³Unodya ngaarege kuzvidza usingadyi, usingadyi ngaarege kupa mhosva unodya; nekuti Mwari wakamugamuchira.

³Don’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.

⁴Iwe ndiwe ani unopa muranda weumwe mhosva? Unomira kana kuwa kuna Ishe wake. Uchamiswa zvirokwazvo, nekuti Mwari unogona kumumisa.

⁴Who 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.

⁵Umwe unotemera rimwe zuva kupfuura rimwe; mumwe unotemera zuva rimwe nerimwe zvakafanana. Umwe neumwe ngaave nechokwadi mufungwa dzake.

⁵One man esteems one day as more important. Another esteems every day alike. Let each man be fully assured in his own mind.

⁶Uyo unorangarira zuva, unorirangarira muna Ishe; neusingarangariri zuva muna Ishe, haarirangariri, neunodya unodya nekuda kwaIshe, nekuti unovonga Mwari. Uye usingadyi, haadyi muna Ishe, uye unovonga Mwari.

⁶He 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.

⁷Nekuti hakuna umwe wedu unozviraramira, uye hakuna unozvifira.

⁷For none of us lives to himself, and none dies to himself.

⁸Nekuti kana tichirarama, tinoraramira Ishe; uye kana tichifa, tinofira Ishe; naizvozvo kana tichirarama, kana tichifa tiri vaIshe.

⁸For 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.

⁹Nekuti Kristu wakafira izvozvi, akamuka akararamazve kuti ave Ishe wevose vapenyu nevakafa.

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

¹⁰Zvino iwe unopireiko hama yako mhosva? Kana newe, unozvidzireiko hama yako? Nekuti isu tose tichamira pamberi pechigaro chekutonga chaKristu.

¹⁰But 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.

¹¹Nekuti kwakanyorwa kuchinzi: Ini ndinorarama, ndizvo zvinoreva Ishe ibvi rimwe nerimwe richandifugamira, nerurimi rumwe nerumwe rwuchareurura kuna Mwari.

¹¹For it is written, “‘As I live,’ says the Lord, ‘to me every knee will bow. Every tongue will confess to God.’” Isaiah 45:23

¹²Naizvozvo zvino umwe neumwe wedu uchazvidavirira pachake kuna Mwari.

¹²So then each one of us will give account of himself to God.

¹³Naizvozvo ngatirege kuramba tichipana mhosva; asi zviri nani mutonge izvi, kuti kusava neunoisa chigumbuso kana chinopinganidza pamberi pehama.

¹³Therefore 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.

¹⁴Ndinoziva, uye ndine chokwadi muna Ishe Jesu, kuti hakuna chinhu chakasviba chomene; asi kune uyo unofunga kuti chakasviba, kwaari chakasviba.

¹⁴I 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.

¹⁵Asi kana hama yako ichirwadziwa nechikafu, hauchafambi nerudo. Usamuparadza nechikafu chako uyo wakafirwa naKristu.

¹⁵Yet 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.

¹⁶Naizvozvo kunaka kwenyu ngakurege kuzvidzwa.

¹⁶Then don’t let your good be slandered,

¹⁷Nekuti ushe hwaMwari hahwusi chikafu kana chimwiwa, asi kururama, nerugare, nemufaro muMweya Mutsvene.

¹⁷for the Kingdom of God is not eating and drinking, but righteousness, peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit.

¹⁸Nekuti uyo unobatira Kristu pazvinhu izvi, unogamuchirwa kuna Mwari, uye unotendwa nevanhu.

¹⁸For he who serves Christ in these things is acceptable to God and approved by men.

¹⁹Naizvozvo ngatitsvakisise zvinhu zvinouyisa rugare nezvinhu zvekuvakana.

¹⁹So then, let us follow after things which make for peace, and things by which we may build one another up.

²⁰Regai kuparadza basa raMwari nekuda kwechikafu. Zvinhu zvose zvakarurama, asi zvakaipa kune unodya achigumbusa.

²⁰Don’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.

²¹Zvakanaka kusadya nyama, kana kumwa waini, kana kuita chingagumbusa hama yako, kana kukanganiswa kana kushaiswa simba.

²¹It is good to not eat meat, drink wine, nor do anything by which your brother stumbles, is offended, or is made weak.

²²Une rutendo here? Iva narwo umene pamberi paMwari, wakaropafadzwa usingazvipi mhosva pachinhu chaanotendera.

²²Do you have faith? Have it to yourself before God. Happy is he who doesn’t judge himself in that which he approves.

²³Asi uyo unokahadzika kana achidya wava nemhosva, nekuti haadyi nerutendo; nekuti zvose zvisingabvi parutendo chivi.

²³But he who doubts is condemned if he eats, because it isn’t of faith; and whatever is not of faith is sin.

²⁴Now 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,

²⁵but 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;

²⁶to the only wise God, through Jesus Christ, to whom be the glory forever! Amen. TR places verses 24-26 after Romans 16:24 as verses 25-27.
