1 Corinthians 8:7-9
Revised Geneva Translation
7 But not everyone has that knowledge. For some, being conscience of the idol until now, eat as though sacrificing to an idol. And so, their conscience, being weak, is defiled.
8 But food does not make us commendable to God. For we are neither more so if we eat it, nor less so if we do not eat it.
9 But take heed, lest by any means this power of yours become a stumbling block to those who are weak.

1 Corinthians 8:7-9
New International Version
7 But not everyone possesses this knowledge.(A) Some people are still so accustomed to idols that when they eat sacrificial food they think of it as having been sacrificed to a god, and since their conscience is weak,(B) it is defiled. 8 But food does not bring us near to God;(C) we are no worse if we do not eat, and no better if we do.
9 Be careful, however, that the exercise of your rights does not become a stumbling block(D) to the weak.(E)
