The New Testament of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.: The common English version, corrected by the final committee of the American Bible Union.
Bible. New Testament
(6)For, for this cause ye pay tribute also; for they are God's
ministers, attending continually to this very thing. (7)Render
therefore to all their dues; tribute to whom tribute is due; custom to
whom custom; fear to whom fear; honor to whom honor. (8)Owe no one
anything, but to love one another; for he that loves another has
fulfilled the law. (9)For this: Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou
shalt not kill, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not covet; and if
there is any other commandment, it is briefly comprehended in this
saying, namely: Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself. (10)Love
works no ill to one's neighbor; therefore love is the fulfillment of
the law. (11)And that, knowing the time, that it is high time that we
already were awaked out of sleep; for now is our salvation nearer than
when we believed. (12)The night is far advanced, the day is at hand.
Let us therefore cast off the works of darkness, and let us put on the
armor of light. (13)Let us walk becomingly, as in the day; not in
reveling and drunkenness, not in lewdness and wantonness, not in
strife and envying; (14)but put on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make not
provision for the flesh, to fulfill its lusts.
XIV.
HIM that is weak in faith receive; not for the decision of disputes.
(2)For one believes, that he may eat all things; but he that is weak
eats herbs. (3)Let not him that eats despise him that eats not; and
let not him that eats not judge him that eats; for God received him.
(4)Who art thou that judgest another's servant? To his own master he
stands or falls. But he shall be made to stand; for God is able to
make him stand.
(5)One man esteems one day above another; another esteems every day
alike. Let each one be fully persuaded in his own mind. (6)He that
regards the day, regards it to the Lord; and he that eats, eats to the
Lord, for he gives thanks to God; and he that eats not, to the Lord he
eats not, and gives thanks to God.
(7)For none of us lives to himself, and none dies to himself. (8)For
if we live, we live to the Lord; and if we die, we die to the Lord;
whether we live therefore, or die, we are the Lord's. (9)For to this
end Christ died, and lived, that he might be Lord of both the dead and
living.
(10)But why dost thou judge thy brother? Or why dost thou despise thy
brother? For we shall all stand before the judgment-seat of God.
(11)For it is written: As I live, saith the Lord, to me every knee
shall bow, and every tongue shall confess to God.[14:11] (12)So then,
each one of us shall give account of himself to God.
