| 1 Cor 8:1 Now concerning things sacrificed to idols, we know that we all have knowledge. Knowledge makes arrogant, but love edifies. 1 Cor 8:2 If anyone supposes that he knows anything, he has not yet known as he ought to know; 1 Cor 8:3 but if anyone loves God, he is known by Him. 1 Cor 8:4 Therefore concerning the eating of things sacrificed to idols, we know that there is no such thing as an idol in the world, and that there is no God but one. 1 Cor 8:5 For even if there are so-called gods whether in heaven or on earth, as indeed there are many gods and many lords, 1 Cor 8:6 yet for us there is but one God, the Father, from whom are all things and we exist for Him; and one Lord, Jesus Christ, by whom are all things, and we exist through Him. 1 Cor 8:7 However not all men have this knowledge; but some, being accustomed to the idol until now, eat food as if it were sacrificed to an idol; and their conscience being weak is defiled. 1 Cor 8:8 But food will not commend us to God; we are neither the worse if we do not eat, nor the better if we do eat. 1 Cor 8:9 But take care that this liberty of yours does not somehow become a stumbling block to the weak. 1 Cor 8:10 For if someone sees you, who have knowledge, dining in an idol's temple, will not his conscience, if he is weak, be strengthened to eat things sacrificed to idols? 1 Cor 8:11 For through your knowledge he who is weak is ruined, the brother for whose sake Christ died. 1 Cor 8:12 And so, by sinning against the brethren and wounding their conscience when it is weak, you sin against Christ. 1 Cor 8:13 Therefore, if food causes my brother to stumble, I will never eat meat again, so that I will not cause my brother to stumble.

| 1 Cor 8:1 Now as touching things offered unto idols, we know that we all have knowledge. Knowledge puffeth up, but charity edifieth. | 1 Cor 8:1 Now concerning things sacrificed to idols, we know that we all have knowledge. Knowledge makes arrogant, but love edifies. | 1 Cor 8:1 περὶ δὲ τῶν εἰδωλοθύτων, οἴδαμεν ὅτι πάντες γνῶσιν ἔχομεν. ἡ γνῶσις φυσιοῖ, ἡ δὲ ἀγάπη οἰκοδομεῖ. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 1 Cor 8:2 And if any man think that he knoweth any thing, he knoweth nothing yet as he ought to know. | 1 Cor 8:2 If anyone supposes that he knows anything, he has not yet known as he ought to know; | 1 Cor 8:2 εἴ τις δοκεῖ ἐγνωκέναι τι, οὔπω ἔγνω καθὼς δεῖ γνῶναι· | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 1 Cor 8:3 But if any man love God, the same is known of him. | 1 Cor 8:3 but if anyone loves God, he is known by Him. | 1 Cor 8:3 εἰ δέ τις ἀγαπᾷ τὸν θεόν, οὖτος ἔγνωσται ὑπ᾽ αὐτοῦ. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 1 Cor 8:4 As concerning therefore the eating of those things that are offered in sacrifice unto idols, we know that an idol is nothing in the world, and that there is none other God but one. | 1 Cor 8:4 Therefore concerning the eating of things sacrificed to idols, we know that there is no such thing as an idol in the world, and that there is no God but one. | 1 Cor 8:4 περὶ τῆς βρώσεως οὗν τῶν εἰδωλοθύτων οἴδαμεν ὅτι οὐδὲν εἴδωλον ἐν κόσμῳ, καὶ ὅτι οὐδεὶς θεὸς εἰ μὴ εἷς. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 1 Cor 8:5 For though there be that are called gods, whether in heaven or in earth, (as there be gods many, and lords many,) | 1 Cor 8:5 For even if there are so-called gods whether in heaven or on earth, as indeed there are many gods and many lords, | 1 Cor 8:5 καὶ γὰρ εἴπερ εἰσὶν λεγόμενοι θεοὶ εἴτε ἐν οὐρανῶ εἴτε ἐπὶ γῆς, ὥσπερ εἰσὶν θεοὶ πολλοὶ καὶ κύριοι πολλοί, | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 1 Cor 8:6 But to us there is but one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we in him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, by whom are all things, and we by him. | 1 Cor 8:6 yet for us there is but one God, the Father, from whom are all things and we exist for Him; and one Lord, Jesus Christ, by whom are all things, and we exist through Him. | 1 Cor 8:6 ἀλλ᾽ ἡμῖν εἷς θεὸς ὁ πατήρ, ἐξ οὖ τὰ πάντα καὶ ἡμεῖς εἰς αὐτόν, καὶ εἷς κύριος ἰησοῦς χριστός, δι᾽ οὖ τὰ πάντα καὶ ἡμεῖς δι᾽ αὐτοῦ. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 1 Cor 8:7 Howbeit there is not in every man that knowledge: for some with conscience of the idol unto this hour eat it as a thing offered unto an idol; and their conscience being weak is defiled. | 1 Cor 8:7 However not all men have this knowledge; but some, being accustomed to the idol until now, eat food as if it were sacrificed to an idol; and their conscience being weak is defiled. | 1 Cor 8:7 ἀλλ᾽ οὐκ ἐν πᾶσιν ἡ γνῶσις· τινὲς δὲ τῇ συνηθείᾳ ἕως ἄρτι τοῦ εἰδώλου ὡς εἰδωλόθυτον ἐσθίουσιν, καὶ ἡ συνείδησις αὐτῶν ἀσθενὴς οὗσα μολύνεται. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 1 Cor 8:8 But meat commendeth us not to God: for neither, if we eat, are we the better; neither, if we eat not, are we the worse. | 1 Cor 8:8 But food will not commend us to God; we are neither the worse if we do not eat, nor the better if we do eat. | 1 Cor 8:8 βρῶμα δὲ ἡμᾶς οὐ παραστήσει τῶ θεῶ· οὔτε ἐὰν μὴ φάγωμεν ὑστερούμεθα, οὔτε ἐὰν φάγωμεν περισσεύομεν. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 1 Cor 8:9 But take heed lest by any means this liberty of your's become a stumblingblock to them that are weak. | 1 Cor 8:9 But take care that this liberty of yours does not somehow become a stumbling block to the weak. | 1 Cor 8:9 βλέπετε δὲ μή πως ἡ ἐξουσία ὑμῶν αὕτη πρόσκομμα γένηται τοῖς ἀσθενέσιν. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 1 Cor 8:10 For if any man see thee which hast knowledge sit at meat in the idol's temple, shall not the conscience of him which is weak be emboldened to eat those things which are offered to idols; | 1 Cor 8:10 For if someone sees you, who have knowledge, dining in an idol's temple, will not his conscience, if he is weak, be strengthened to eat things sacrificed to idols? | 1 Cor 8:10 ἐὰν γάρ τις ἴδῃ σὲ τὸν ἔχοντα γνῶσιν ἐν εἰδωλείῳ κατακείμενον, οὐχὶ ἡ συνείδησις αὐτοῦ ἀσθενοῦς ὄντος οἰκοδομηθήσεται εἰς τὸ τὰ εἰδωλόθυτα ἐσθίειν; | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 1 Cor 8:11 And through thy knowledge shall the weak brother perish, for whom Christ died? | 1 Cor 8:11 For through your knowledge he who is weak is ruined, the brother for whose sake Christ died. | 1 Cor 8:11 ἀπόλλυται γὰρ ὁ ἀσθενῶν ἐν τῇ σῇ γνώσει, ὁ ἀδελφὸς δι᾽ ὃν χριστὸς ἀπέθανεν. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 1 Cor 8:12 But when ye sin so against the brethren, and wound their weak conscience, ye sin against Christ. | 1 Cor 8:12 And so, by sinning against the brethren and wounding their conscience when it is weak, you sin against Christ. | 1 Cor 8:12 οὕτως δὲ ἁμαρτάνοντες εἰς τοὺς ἀδελφοὺς καὶ τύπτοντες αὐτῶν τὴν συνείδησιν ἀσθενοῦσαν εἰς χριστὸν ἁμαρτάνετε. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 1 Cor 8:13 Wherefore, if meat make my brother to offend, I will eat no flesh while the world standeth, lest I make my brother to offend. | 1 Cor 8:13 Therefore, if food causes my brother to stumble, I will never eat meat again, so that I will not cause my brother to stumble. | 1 Cor 8:13 διόπερ εἰ βρῶμα σκανδαλίζει τὸν ἀδελφόν μου, οὐ μὴ φάγω κρέα εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα, ἵνα μὴ τὸν ἀδελφόν μου σκανδαλίσω. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
