1 Corinthians 8:9-12
New American Standard Bible
9 But (A)take care that this [a]freedom of yours does not somehow become a stumbling block to the (B)weak. 10 For if someone sees you, the one who has (C)knowledge, dining in an idol’s temple, will his conscience, if he is weak, not be strengthened to eat (D)things sacrificed to idols? 11 For through (E)your knowledge the one who is weak (F)is ruined, the brother or sister for whose sake Christ died. 12 (G)And so, by sinning against the brothers and sisters and wounding their conscience when it is weak, you sin (H)against Christ.

1 Corinthians 8:9-12
New International Version
9 Be careful, however, that the exercise of your rights does not become a stumbling block(A) to the weak.(B) 10 For if someone with a weak conscience sees you, with all your knowledge, eating in an idol’s temple, won’t that person be emboldened to eat what is sacrificed to idols?(C) 11 So this weak brother or sister, for whom Christ died, is destroyed(D) by your knowledge. 12 When you sin against them(E) in this way and wound their weak conscience, you sin against Christ.(F)
