¹⁰But 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.

⁴Who art thou that iudgest an other mans seruant? to his owne master he standeth or falleth; Yea he shall bee holden vp: for God is able to make him stand.

⁵One man esteemeth one day aboue another: another esteemeth euery day alike. Let euery man bee ^‖fully perswaded in his owne minde.

⁶He that regardeth a day, regardeth it vnto the Lord; and hee that ^‖regardeth not the day, to the Lord hee doeth not regard it. He that eateth, eateth to the Lord, for hee giueth God thankes: and hee that eateth not, to the Lord hee eateth not, and giueth God thankes.

⁷For none of vs liueth to himselfe, and no man dieth to himselfe.

⁸For whether we liue, we liue vnto the Lord: and whether wee die, we die vnto the Lord: whether wee liue therefore or die, we are the Lords.

⁹For to this ende Christ both died, and rose, and reuiued, that hee might be Lord both of the dead and liuing.

¹⁰But why doest ^*thou iudge thy brother? or why dost thou set at nought thy brother? wee shall all stand before the Iudgement seat of Christ.

¹¹For it is written, ^* As I liue, saith the Lord, euery knee shall bow to mee, and euery tongue shall confesse to God.

¹²So then euery one of vs shall giue accompt of himselfe to God.
