1 Corinthians 8:1-7

1NowG1161 as concerningG4012 things offered to idolsG1494, we knowG1492 thatG3754 we allG3956 haveG2192 knowledgeG1108. KnowledgeG1108 puffeth upG5448, butG1161 charityG26 edifiethG3618. 2AndG1161 if any manG1536 thinkethG1380 that he knowethG1492 any thingG5100, he knowethG1097 nothingG3762 yetG3764 asG2531 he oughtG1163 to knowG1097. 3ButG1161 if any manG1536 lovethG25 GodG2316, the sameG3778 is knownG1097 byG5259 himG846.

4ThereforeG3767 as concerningG4012 the eatingG1035 of those things that are offered in sacrifice to idolsG1494, we knowG1492 thatG3754 an idolG1497 is nothingG3762 inG1722 the worldG2889, andG2532 thatG3754 there is noG3762 otherG2087 GodG2316 butG1508 oneG1520. 5ForG1063 thoughG1512G2532 there areG1526 that are calledG3004 godsG2316, whetherG1535 inG1722 heavenG3772 orG1535 uponG1909 earthG1093, asG5618 there areG1526 godsG2316 manyG4183, andG2532 lordsG2962 manyG4183,) 6YetG235 to usG2254 there is but oneG1520 GodG2316, the FatherG3962, fromG1537 whomG3739 are all thingsG3956, andG2532 weG2249 inG1519 himG846; andG2532 oneG1520 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, byG1223 whomG3739 are all thingsG3956, andG2532 weG2249 byG1223 himG846.1

7ButG235there isnotG3756 inG1722 every manG3956 that knowledgeG1108: forG1161 someG5100 with conscienceG4893 of the idolG1497 toG2193 this hourG737 eatG2068 it asG5613 a thing offered to an idolG1494; andG2532 theirG846 conscienceG4893 beingG5607 weakG772 is defiledG3435.
