哥林多前書 8
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Traditional)
祭偶像的食物
8 關於獻給偶像的祭物，我們知道大家都有這方面的知識，但知識會使人自高，唯有愛心才能造就人。 2 若有人自以為知道些什麼，其實他需要知道的，他還不知道。 3 但如果有人愛上帝，這人是上帝所認識的。
4 論到吃獻給偶像的祭物，我們知道世上的偶像算不得什麼，只有一位上帝，此外別無他神。 5 雖然天上地上有許多被稱為神的，好像有許多神、許多主， 6 但我們只有一位神，就是父上帝，祂是萬物的源頭，是我們的歸宿。我們也只有一位主，就是耶穌基督，萬物都是藉著祂存在，我們也是藉著祂存在。
7 不過，並不是所有的人都有這種知識。有些人因為以前拜慣了偶像，現在吃到某些食物就覺得是祭過偶像的，因而良心不安，覺得自己被玷污了。 8 其實食物並不能改變上帝對我們的看法，我們不吃也沒有損失，吃了也不會更好。
9 但你們要小心，不要讓你們的自由絆倒那些信心軟弱的人。 10 如果有人看見你這明白以上道理的人竟然坐在偶像的廟中吃喝，他雖然良心不安，豈不還是會放膽吃獻給偶像的祭物嗎？ 11 這樣，你的知識反而令那軟弱的人，就是基督捨命救回的弟兄沉淪。 12 你們這樣得罪弟兄，傷了他脆弱的良心，就是得罪基督。 13 所以，如果我吃某些食物會令我的弟兄在信仰上跌倒，我就情願永遠不吃[a]，免得令他們跌倒。

Chinese New Testament: Easy-to-Read Version
祭偶像的食物
8 现在，我要谈谈关于祭给偶像食物的问题，我们知道∶“我们都有知识。”但是，知识使人自高自大，但爱却有助人更加坚强。 2 自认为有所知的人，实际上连该知道的都不知道。 3 但是，爱上帝的人，却为上帝所知。
4 关于祭过偶像的食物，我们知道∶“偶像在世上一文不值，也知道只有一位上帝。” 5 即便在天上人间有许多所谓的“神”，（有许多“神”和“主”） 6 然而对我们来说，只有一个上帝，天父，万物自他而生，我们为他而生；只有一位主耶稣基督，万物借助他而存在，我们借他而活。
7 但不是所有的人都知道这些。有些人直到现在还习惯偶像崇拜，所以，每当吃肉时，他们认为这是祭过偶像的。因为他们的良心本来就弱，吃后更觉受到了玷污。 8 食物不能使我们更接近上帝。不吃，我们不会更坏，吃了，也不会使我们更好。
9 但是，你们要小心，不要让你们的自由使信仰弱的人犯罪。 10 你们有知识，所以在偶像的大殿里可以坦然地吃东西。但是，信仰不坚定的人看到你们在那里吃东西，岂不等于鼓励他去吃祭偶像的食物吗？但实际上他却认为这是错误的。 11 结果这个软弱的兄弟因为你的知识而被毁掉了。基督正是为了你的这个兄弟而死的。 12 你们这么做，不但是在对兄弟犯罪，伤害了他们脆弱的良心，而且也是在对基督犯罪。 13 因此，如果食物会让兄弟犯罪，我就永远不再吃肉，避免让我的兄弟犯罪。
1 Corinthians 8
International Standard Version
Concerning Food Offered to Idols
8 Now concerning food offered to idols: We know that we all possess knowledge. Knowledge puffs up, but love builds up. 2 If anyone thinks he really[a] knows something, he has not yet learned it as he ought to know it. 3 But anyone who loves God is known by him.[b]
4 Now concerning eating food offered to idols: We know that no idol is real in this world and that there is only one God. 5 For even if there are “gods” in heaven and on earth (as indeed there are many so-called “gods” and “lords”), 6 yet for us
there is only one God, the Father,
from whom everything came into being
and for whom we live.
And there is only one Lord, Jesus the Messiah,[c]
through whom everything came into being
and through whom we live.
7 But not everyone has this knowledge. Some people are so accustomed to idolatry that when they eat food that has been offered to an idol, their conscience becomes contaminated because it is weak. 8 However, food will not bring us closer to God. We are no worse off if we do not eat food that has been offered to an idol,[d] and no better off if we do.
9 But you must see to it that this right of yours does not become a stumbling block for those who are weak. 10 For if anyone with a weak conscience sees you, who know better, eating in an idol’s temple, he will be encouraged to eat what has been offered to idols, won’t he? 11 In that case, the weak brother for whom the Messiah[e] died is ruined by your knowledge. 12 When you sin against your brothers in this way and wound their weak consciences, you are sinning against the Messiah.[f] 13 Therefore, if food that I eat[g] causes my brother to stumble, I will never eat meat again, in order to keep my brother from stumbling.
