Translated from Hebrew and Greek with AI, then checked for clarity and fidelity.

1. Welcome the one who is weak in faith, but not for disputes over doubts.
2. One indeed believes he may eat all things, but the one who is weak eats herbs.
3. Let the one who eats not despise the one who does not eat, but let the one who does not eat not judge the one who eats, for God has accepted him.
4. Who are you to judge someone else's servant? Before his own master he stands or falls. Yes, he will be made to stand, for the Lord is able to make him stand.
5. One indeed judges one day more than another, but another judges every day; let each be fully convinced in his own mind.
6. The one who regards the day regards it for the Lord, and the one who eats eats for the Lord, for he gives thanks to God; and the one not eating does not eat for the Lord, and gives thanks to God.
7. For none of us lives for himself, and none dies for himself.
8. For whether we live, we live for the Lord, and whether we die, we die for the Lord; therefore, whether we live or die, we belong to the Lord.
9. For this Christ died and lived, that he might be Lord both of the dead and the living.
10. But you, why do you judge your brother? Or why do you also despise your brother? For we will all stand before the judgment seat of God.
11. For it is written: "I live," says the Lord, "every knee will bow to me, and every tongue will confess to God.
12. So then each of us will give an account for himself to God.
13. Therefore let us no longer judge one another, but resolve instead not to place a stumbling block or obstacle before a brother.
14. I know and am convinced in the Lord Jesus that nothing is unclean in itself; but to anyone who regards something as unclean, to that person it is unclean.
15. For if your brother is grieved because of food, you no longer walk according to love. Do not by your food destroy that one for whom Christ died.
16. Therefore do not let your good be reviled.
17. For the kingdom of God is not food and drink, but righteousness, peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit.
18. For whoever serves Christ in this is pleasing to God and approved by people.
19. So then, let us pursue the things of peace and the things of building one another up.
20. Do not destroy God's work for the sake of food. All things indeed are pure, but it is evil for that man who eats by causing a stumbling block.
21. It is good not to eat meat nor drink wine nor anything by which your brother stumbles, or is offended, or is weakened.
22. Do you have faith? Keep it between yourself and God. Blessed is the one who does not judge himself in what he approves.
23. But the one who doubts is condemned if he eats, because that is not from faith; everything not from faith is sin.
