1 Corinthians 8:8-13 But meat doth not bring us nigh to Aloha. For if we eat, we excel not; nor if we eat not, are we deficient.

Etheridge⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁸ But meat doth not bring us nigh to Aloha. For if we eat, we excel not; nor if we eat not, are we deficient. ⁹ But beware that this your power become not a stumbling-block to the infirm ones. ¹⁰ For if a man shall see thee in whom is knowledge reclining in the house of idols, will not his conscience, because he is weak, be confirmed to eat that which is sacrificed, ¹¹ and he will perish through thy knowledge? he who is weak, and on account of whom the Meshiha died. ¹² And if so you transgress against your brethren, and wound their weak consciences, do you not transgress against the Meshiha? ¹³ On this account, if meat cause my brother to stumble, I will never (more) eat flesh, that I may not cause my brother to stumble.
