Legacy Standard Bible
4 Therefore, concerning the eating of (A)things sacrificed to idols, we know that [a]an idol is (B)nothing in the world, and that (C)there is no God but one. 5 For even if (D)there are so-called gods whether in heaven or on earth, as indeed there are many gods and many lords, 6 yet for us (E)there is one God, (F)the Father, (G)from whom are all things and we exist for Him, and (H)one Lord, Jesus Christ, (I)by whom are all things, and we exist through Him.

1 Corinthians 8:4-6
New Living Translation
4 So, what about eating meat that has been offered to idols? Well, we all know that an idol is not really a god and that there is only one God. 5 There may be so-called gods both in heaven and on earth, and some people actually worship many gods and many lords. 6 But for us,
There is one God, the Father,
by whom all things were created,
and for whom we live.
And there is one Lord, Jesus Christ,
through whom all things were created,
and through whom we live.
