1 Corinthians 10:20-33

Legacy Standard Bible

²⁰ No, but I say that the things which the Gentiles sacrifice, they ^(A)sacrifice to demons and not to God. And I do not want you to become sharers in demons. ^21 (B)You cannot drink the cup of the Lord and the cup of demons. You cannot partake of the table of the Lord and ^(C)the table of demons. ²² Or do we ^(D)provoke the ^[a]Lord to jealousy? Are we ^(E)stronger than He?

^23 (F)All things are lawful, but not all things are profitable. All things are lawful, but not all things ^(G)build up. ²⁴ Let no one ^(H)seek his own good, but that of the other person. ^25 (I)Eat anything that is sold in the meat market without asking questions for conscience’ sake. ^26 (J)For the earth is the ^[b]Lord’s, as well as its fullness. ²⁷ If ^(K)one of the unbelievers invites you and you want to go, ^(L)eat anything that is set before you without asking questions for conscience’ sake. ²⁸ But ^(M)if anyone says to you, “This is meat consecrated to idols,” do not eat it, for the sake of the one who informed you, and for conscience’ sake. ²⁹ I do not mean your own conscience, but the other person’s. For ^(N)why is my freedom judged by another’s conscience? ³⁰ If I partake with gratefulness, ^(O)why am I slandered concerning that for which I ^(P)give thanks?

³¹ Whether, then, you eat or drink or ^(Q)whatever you do, do all to the glory of God. ^32 (R)Give no offense either to Jews or to Greeks or to ^(S)the church of God; ³³ just as I also ^(T)please all men in all things, ^(U)not seeking my own profit but the profit of the many, ^(V)so that they may be saved.
