Basic HTML Version
which is evil, be afraid; for he beareth not the sword in vain: for he is the minister of God, a revenger
to
execute
wrath upon him that doeth evil.
5
Wherefore
ye
must needs be subject, not only for wrath,
but also for conscience sake.
6
For for this cause pay ye tribute also: for they are God’s ministers,
attending continually upon this very thing.
7
Render therefore to all their dues: tribute to whom
tribute
is due;
custom to whom custom; fear to whom fear; honour to whom honour.
8
Owe no man
any thing, but to love one another: for he that loveth another hath fulfilled the law.
9
For this, Thou
shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not kill, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness,
Thou shalt not covet; and if
there be
any other commandment, it is briefly comprehended in this
saying, namely, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.
10
Love worketh no ill to his neighbour:
therefore love
is
the fulfilling of the law.
11
And that, knowing the time, that now
it is
high time to
awake out of sleep: for now
is
our salvation nearer than when we believed.
12
The night is far spent,
the day is at hand: let us therefore cast off the works of darkness, and let us put on the armour of
light.
13
Let us walk honestly, as in the day; not in rioting and drunkenness, not in chambering and
wantonness, not in strife and envying.
14
But put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make not provision
for the flesh, to
fulfil
the lusts
thereof.
CHAPTER 14
Him that is weak in the faith receive ye,
but
not to doubtful disputations.
2
For one believeth that
he may eat all things: another, who is weak, eateth herbs.
3
Let 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.
4
Who
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.
5
One man esteemeth one day above another:
another esteemeth every day
alike.
Let every man be fully persuaded in his own mind.
6
He 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.
7
For none of us liveth to himself, and no man dieth
to himself.
8
For 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.
9
For to this end Christ both died, and rose,
and revived, that he might be Lord both of the dead and living.
10
But 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.
11
For it is written,
As
I live, saith the Lord, every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue
shall confess to God.
12
So then every one of us shall give account of himself to God.
13
Let 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.
14
I 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.
15
But if thy brother be grieved with
thy
meat, now walkest thou not charitably. Destroy not him
