Romans
Romans 14:5–6
5One person regards a certain day above the others, while someone else considers every day alike. Each one should be fully convinced in his own mind. 6He who observes a special day does so to the Lord;b he who eats does so to the Lord, for he gives thanks to God; and he who abstains does so to the Lord and gives thanks to God.
Footnotes
- b 14:6 BYZ and TR include he who does not regard the day, to the Lord he does not regard it;
