< 1 Corinthians 8 >
1 about then the/this/who sacrificed to idols to know that/since: that all knowledge to have/be the/this/who knowledge to inflate the/this/who then love to build
Now as concerning things offered unto idols, we know that we all have knowledge. Knowledge puffs up, but love (agape) edifies.
2 if (then *k*) one to think (to know *N(k)O*) one (not yet *N(k)O*) (none *k*) (to know *N(k)O*) as/just as be necessary to know
And if any man think that he knows any thing, he knows nothing yet as he ought to know.
3 if then one to love the/this/who God this/he/she/it to know by/under: by it/s/he
But if any man love God, the same is known of him.
4 about the/this/who eating therefore/then the/this/who sacrificed to idols to know that/since: that none idol in/on/among world and that/since: that none God (other *k*) if: not not one
As concerning therefore the eating of those things that are offered in sacrifice unto idols, we know that an idol is nothing in the world, and that there is no other God but one.
5 and for if indeed to be to say: call God whether in/on/among heaven whether upon/to/against (the/this/who *k*) earth: planet just as to be God much and lord: master much
For though there be that are called gods, whether in heaven or in earth, (as there be gods many, and lords many, )
6 but me one God the/this/who father out from which the/this/who all and me toward it/s/he and one lord: God Jesus Christ through/because of which the/this/who all and me through/because of it/s/he
But to us there is but one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we in him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, by whom are all things, and we by him.
7 but no in/on/among all the/this/who knowledge one then the/this/who (custom *N(K)O*) until now the/this/who idol as/when sacrificed to idols to eat and the/this/who conscience it/s/he weak to be to defile
Nevertheless there is not in every man that knowledge: for some with conscience of the idol unto this hour eat it as a thing offered unto an idol; and their conscience being weak is defiled.
8 food then me no (to stand by *N(k)O*) the/this/who God neither (for *ko*) if not to eat to lack neither if to eat (to exceed *NK(o)*)
But food commends us not to God: for neither, if we eat, are we the better; neither, if we eat not, are we the worse.
9 to see then not how the/this/who authority you this/he/she/it stumbling block to be the/this/who (weak *N(k)O*)
But take heed lest by any means this liberty of your's become a stumbling block to them that are weak.
10 if for one to perceive: see you the/this/who to have/be knowledge in/on/among idol's temple to recline not! the/this/who conscience it/s/he weak to be to build toward the/this/who the/this/who sacrificed to idols to eat
For if any man see you which have knowledge sit to eat in the idol's temple, shall not the conscience of him which is weak be emboldened to eat those things which are offered to idols;
11 (to destroy *N(K)O*) (for *N(k)O*) the/this/who be weak: weak (in/on/among *N(k)O*) the/this/who you knowledge (the/this/who *no*) brother through/because of which Christ to die
And through your knowledge shall the weak brother perish, for whom Christ died?
12 thus(-ly) then to sin toward the/this/who brother and to strike it/s/he the/this/who conscience be weak: weak toward Christ to sin
But when all of you sin so against the brethren, and wound their weak conscience, all of you sin against Christ.
13 for if food to cause to stumble the/this/who brother me no not to eat meat toward the/this/who an age: eternity in order that/to not the/this/who brother me to cause to stumble (aiōn )
Wherefore, if food make my brother to offend, I will eat no flesh while the world stands, lest I make my brother to offend. (aiōn )
