Rom. 14 - Greek/English/Strong’s Interlinear


King James Version

For meat destroy not the work of God. All things indeed are pure; but it is evil for that man who eateth with offence.
New King James Version

Do not destroy the work of God for the sake of food. All things indeed are pure, but it is evil for the man who eats with offense.
New American Standard Bible

Do not tear down the work of God for the sake of food. All things indeed are clean, but they are evil for the person who eats and causes offense.
New International Version

Do not destroy the work of God for the sake of food. All food is clean, but it is wrong for a person to eat anything that causes someone else to stumble.
The Amplified Bible

Do not, for the sake of food, tear down the work of God. All things indeed are [ceremonially] clean, but they are wrong for the person who eats and offends [another’s conscience in the process].
Wuest’s Expanded Translation

Stop on account of food ruining the work of God. All things indeed are pure. But it is evil to the man who eats so as to be a stumbling block.
Phillips’ Modern English

Surely we shouldn’t wish to undo God’s work for the sake of a plate of meat! I freely admit that all food is, in itself, harmless, but it can be harmful to the man who eats it with a guilty conscience.
Williams’ Language of the People

Stop undoing the work of God just for the sake of food. Everything is clean, but it is wrong for a man to eat anything when it makes another stumble.
KJV with Strong’s Numbers

For 1752 meat 1033 destroy 2647 not 3361 the 3588 work 2041 of God. 2316 All things 3956 indeed 3303 are pure; 2513 but 235 it is evil 2556 for that man 444 who eateth 2068 with 1223 offence. 4348
