# Who are you, you who judge a servant belonging to someone else?
Paul is using a question to scold those who are judging others. You can translate this as a statement. Alternate translation: "You are not God, and you are not allowed to judge one of his servants!" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-rquestion]])
"You are not God, and you are not allowed to judge one of his servants!"
# you, you
The form of "you" here is singular. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-you]])

# It is before his own master that he stands or falls
Paul speaks of God as if he were a master who owned servants. Alternate translation: "Only the master can decide if he will accept the servant or not" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metaphor]])
"Only the master can decide if he will accept the servant or not"
# But he will be made to stand, for the Lord is able to make him stand
Paul speaks of the servant who is acceptable to God as if he were being "made to stand" instead of falling. You can translate this in an active form. Alternate translation: "But the Lord will accept him because he is able to make the servant acceptable" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metaphor]] and [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-activepassive]])
"But the Lord will accept him because he is able to make the servant acceptable"
