1 Corinthians 10:20-33
20No, but I say that things whichG3739 the Gentiles sacrificeG2380, they 1sacrificeG2380 to demonsG1140 and not to GodG2316; and I do not wantG2309 you to becomeG1096 partnersG2844 with demonsG1140. 212You cannotG1410G3756 drinkG4095 the cupG4221 of the LordG2962 and the cupG4221 of demonsG1140; you cannotG1410G3756 partakeG3348 of the tableG5132 of the LordG2962 and 3the tableG5132 of demonsG1140. 22OrG2228 do we 4provokeG3863 the LordG2962 toG3863 jealousyG3863? We are not 5strongerG2478 than He, are we?
236AllG3956 thingsG3956 are permittedG1832, but not allG3956 thingsG3956 areG4851 ofG4851 benefitG4851. AllG3956 thingsG3956 are permittedG1832, but not allG3956 thingsG3956 78buildG3618 people upG3618. 24NoG3367 oneG3367 is to 9seekG2212 his ownG1438 advantage, butG235 ratherG235 that of his 10neighborG2087. 2511EatG2068 anythingG3956 that is soldG4453 in the meatG3111 marketG3111 withoutG3367 askingG350 questionsG350, for the sakeG1223 of conscienceG4893; 2612for the earthG1093 is the Lord’sG2962, and 13allG4138 it containsG4138. 27IfG1487 14oneG5100 of the unbelieversG571 invitesG2564 you and you wantG2309 to goG4198, 15eatG2068 anythingG3956 that is setG3908 beforeG3908 you withoutG3367 askingG350 questionsG350, for the sakeG1223 of conscienceG4893. 28But 16ifG1437 anyoneG5100 saysG3004 to you, “ThisG3778 is meatG2410 sacrificedG2410 toG2410 idolsG2410,” do not eatG2068 it, for the sakeG1223 of that oneG1565 who informedG3377 you and for the sake of conscienceG4893; 29NowG1161 by “conscienceG4893” I do not meanG3004 your ownG1438, but the otherG2087 person’sG2087; for 17whyG2443G5101 is my freedomG1657 judgedG2919 by another’sG243 conscienceG4893? 30IfG1487 I partakeG3348 with thankfulnessG5485, 18whyG5101 am I slanderedG987 aboutG5228 that for whichG3739 I 19giveG2168 thanksG2168?
31ThereforeG3767, whetherG1535 you eatG2068 orG1535 drinkG4095, orG1535 20whateverG5100 you doG4160, doG4160 allG3956 thingsG3956 for the gloryG1391 of GodG2316. 3221DoG1096 notG677 offendG677 JewsG2453 orG2532 GreeksG1672, orG2532 22the churchG1577 of GodG2316; 33justG2531 asG2531 I alsoG2532 23pleaseG700 everyoneG3956 in allG3956 thingsG3956, 24not seekingG2212 my ownG1683 benefitG4851 but the benefit of the manyG4183, 25soG2443 thatG2443 they may be savedG4982.
