1 Corinthians 8:7-13 But the knowledge is not in all; but some being aware of the idol eat as an idolatrous sacrifice until now; and their conscience being weak is defiled.

LITV⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁷ But the knowledge is not in all; but some being aware of the idol eat as an idolatrous sacrifice until now; and their conscience being weak is defiled. ⁸ But food will not commend us to God. For neither if we eat do we excel, nor if we do not eat are we behind. ⁹ But be careful lest this authority of yours become a cause of stumbling to the weak ones. ¹⁰ For if anyone sees you, the one having knowledge, sitting in an idol-temple, will not the weak one's conscience be lifted up so as to eat things sacrificed to idols? ¹¹ And on your knowledge the weak brother will fall, he for whom Christ died. ¹² And sinning in this way against your brothers, and wounding their conscience, being weak, you sin against Christ. ¹³ On account of this, if food offends my brother, I will not at all eat flesh forever, so that I do not offend my brother.
