[1] Now concerning things sacrificed to idols: We know that we all have knowledge. Knowledge puffs up, but love builds up. [2] But if anyone thinks that he knows anything, he doesn’t yet know as he ought to know. [3] But anyone who loves God is known by him. [4] Therefore concerning the eating of things sacrificed to idols, we know that no idol is anything in the world, and that there is no other God but one. [5] For though there are things that are called “gods”, whether in the heavens or on earth—as there are many “gods” and many “lords”— [6] yet to us there is one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we for him; and one Lord, Jesus Christ, through whom are all things, and we live through him. [7] However, that knowledge isn’t in all men. But some, with consciousness of an idol until now, eat as of a thing sacrificed to an idol, and their conscience, being weak, is defiled. [8] But food will not commend us to God. For neither, if we don’t eat are we the worse, nor if we eat are we the better. [9] But be careful that by no means does this liberty of yours become a stumbling block to the weak. [10] For if a man sees you who have knowledge sitting in an idol’s temple, won’t his conscience, if he is weak, be emboldened to eat things sacrificed to idols? [11] And through your knowledge, he who is weak perishes, the brother for whose sake Christ died. [12] Thus, sinning against the brothers, and wounding their conscience when it is weak, you sin against Christ. [13] Therefore, if food causes my brother to stumble, I will eat no meat forever more, that I don’t cause my brother to stumble.

[1] NowG1161 as touchingG4012 things offered unto idols,G1494 we knowG1492(PerfActInd) thatG3754 we allG3956 haveG2192(PresActInd) knowledge.G1108 KnowledgeG1108 puffeth up,G5448(PresActInd) butG1161 charityG26 edifieth.G3618(PresActInd) [2] AndG1161 if any manG1536 thinkG1380(PresActInd) that he knowethG1492(PerfActInf) any thing,G5100 he knowethG1097(PerfActInd) nothingG3762 yetG3764 asG2531 he oughtG1163(PresInd) to know.G1097(Aor2ActInf) [3] ButG1161 if any manG1536 loveG25(PresActInd) God,G2316 the sameG3778 is knownG1097(PerfPasInd) ofG5259 him.G846 [4] As concerningG4012 thereforeG3767 the eatingG1035 of those things that are offered in sacrifice unto idols,G1494 we knowG1492(PerfActInd) thatG3754 an idolG1497 [is] nothingG3762 inG1722 the world,G2889 andG2532 thatG3754 [there is] noneG3762 otherG2087 GodG2316 butG1508 one.G1520 [5] ForG1063 thoughG1512 there beG1526(PresInd) that are calledG3004(PresPasPtc) gods,G2316 whetherG1535 inG1722 heavenG3772 orG1535 inG1909 earth,G1093 (asG5618 there beG1526(PresInd) godsG2316 many,G4183 andG2532 lordsG2962 many,G4183) [6] ButG235 to usG2254 [there is but] oneG1520 God,G2316 the Father,G3962 ofG1537 whomG3739 [are] all things,G3956 andG2532 weG2249 inG1519 him;G846 andG2532 oneG1520 LordG2962 JesusG2424 Christ,G5547 byG1223 whomG3739 [are] all things,G3956 andG2532 weG2249 byG1223 him.G846 [7] HowbeitG235 [there is] notG3756 inG1722 every manG3956 that knowledge:G1108 forG1161 someG5100 with conscienceG4893 of the idolG1497 untoG2193 this hourG737 eatG2068(PresActInd) [it] asG5613 a thing offered unto an idol;G1494 andG2532 theirG846 conscienceG4893 beingG5607(PresPtc) weakG772 is defiled.G3435(PresPasInd) [8] ButG1161 meatG1033 commendethG3936(PresActInd) usG2248 notG3756 to God:G2316 forG1063 neither,G3777 ifG1437 we eat,G5315(Aor2ActSubj) are we the better;G4052(PresActInd) neither,G3777 ifG3362 we eatG5315(Aor2ActSubj) not,G3362 are we the worse.G5302(PresPasInd) [9] ButG1161 take heedG991(PresActImpr) lestG3381 by any meansG4458 thisG3778 libertyG1849 of yoursG5216 becomeG1096(Aor2MidDepSubj) a stumblingblockG4348 to them that are weak.G770(PresActPtc) [10] ForG1063 ifG1437 any manG5100 seeG1492(Aor2ActSubj) theeG4571 whichG3588 hastG2192(PresActPtc) knowledgeG1108 sit at meatG2621(PresMidPasDepPtc) inG1722 the idol’s temple,G1493 shallG3618 notG3780 the conscienceG4893 of himG846 which isG5607(PresPtc) weakG772 be emboldenedG3618(FutPasInd) to eatG2068(PresActInf) those things which are offered to idols;G1494 [11] AndG2532 throughG1909 thyG4674 knowledgeG1108 shallG622 the weakG770(PresActPtc) brotherG80 perish,G622(Fut2MidInd) forG1223 whomG3739 ChristG5547 died?G599(Aor2ActInd) [12] ButG1161 when ye sinG264(PresActPtc) soG3779 againstG1519 the brethren,G80 andG2532 woundG5180(PresActPtc) theirG846 weakG770(PresActPtc) conscience,G4893 ye sinG264(PresActInd) againstG1519 Christ.G5547 [13] Wherefore,G1355 ifG1487 meatG1033 makeG4624 myG3450 brotherG80 to offend,G4624(PresActInd) I will eatG5315(Aor2ActSubj) noG3364 fleshG2907 while the world standeth,G1519 lestG3363 I makeG4624 myG3450 brotherG80 to offend.G4624(AorActSubj)
