1 Corinthians 10:23-30
Legacy Standard Bible
23 (A)All things are lawful, but not all things are profitable. All things are lawful, but not all things (B)build up. 24 Let no one (C)seek his own good, but that of the other person. 25 (D)Eat anything that is sold in the meat market without asking questions for conscience’ sake. 26 (E)For the earth is the [a]Lord’s, as well as its fullness. 27 If (F)one of the unbelievers invites you and you want to go, (G)eat anything that is set before you without asking questions for conscience’ sake. 28 But (H)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 (I)why is my freedom judged by another’s conscience? 30 If I partake with gratefulness, (J)why am I slandered concerning that for which I (K)give thanks?

23 “Everything is permissible,”[a] but not everything is beneficial. “Everything is permissible,”[b] but not everything builds up. 24 No one is to seek his own good, but the good of the other person.(A)
25 Eat everything that is sold in the meat market, without raising questions for the sake of conscience, 26 since the earth is the Lord’s,(B) and all that is in it.[c](C) 27 If any of the unbelievers invites you over and you want to go, eat everything that is set before you, without raising questions for the sake of conscience. 28 But if someone says to you, “This is food from a sacrifice,” do not eat it,(D) out of consideration for the one who told you, and for the sake of conscience.[d] 29 I do not mean your own conscience, but the other person’s. For why is my freedom judged(E) by another person’s conscience? 30 If I partake with thanksgiving,(F) why am I criticized because of something for which I give thanks?
