1 Corinthians 8:4-8

As concerningG4012 thereforeG3767 the eatingG3588G1035 of those things that are offered in sacrifice unto idolsG1494, we knowG1492 thatG3754 an idolG1497 is nothingG3762 inG1722 the worldG2889, andG2532 thatG3754 there is noneG3762 otherG2087 GodG2316 butG1487 oneG1520. 5ForG1063 thoughG1512 there beG1510 that are calledG3004 godsG2316, whetherG1535 inG1722 heavenG3772 orG1535 inG1909 earthG3588G1093, (asG5618 there beG1510 godsG2316 manyG4183, andG2532 lordsG2962 manyG4183,) 6ButG235 to usG1473 there is but oneG1520 GodG2316, the FatherG3588G3962, ofG1537 whomG3739 are all thingsG3956, andG2532 weG1473 inG1519 himG846; andG2532 oneG1520 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, byG1223 whomG3739 are all thingsG3956, andG2532 weG1473 byG1223 himG846.

7HowbeitG235 there is notG3756 inG1722 every manG3956 that knowledgeG3588G1108: forG1161 someG5100 with conscienceG3588G4893 of the idolG3588G1497 untoG2193 this hourG737 eatG2068 it asG5613 a thing offered unto an idolG1494; andG2532 theirG846 conscienceG3588G4893 beingG1510 weakG772 is defiledG3435. 8ButG1161 meatG1033 commendethG3936 usG1473 notG3756 to GodG3588G2316: forG1063 neitherG3777, ifG1437 we eatG5315, are we the betterG4052; neitherG3777, ifG1437 we eatG5315 notG3361, are we the worseG5302.
