1 |
de his autem quae idolis sacrificantur scimus quia omnes scientiam habemus scientia inflat caritas vero aedificat
Now concerning those things that are sacrificed to idols: we know we all have knowledge. Knowledge puffeth up: but charity edifieth.
|
2 |
si quis se existimat scire aliquid nondum cognovit quemadmodum oporteat eum scire
And if any man think that he knoweth any thing, he hath not yet known as he ought to know.
|
3 |
si quis autem diligit Deum hic cognitus est ab eo
But if any man love God, the same is known by him.
|
4 |
de escis autem quae idolis immolantur scimus quia nihil est idolum in mundo et quod nullus Deus nisi unus
But as for the meats that are sacrificed to idols, we know that an idol is nothing in the world and that there is no God but one.
|
5 |
nam et si sunt qui dicantur dii sive in caelo sive in terra siquidem sunt dii multi et domini multi
For although there be that are called gods, either in heaven or on earth (for there be gods many and lords many):
|
6 |
nobis tamen unus Deus Pater ex quo omnia et nos in illum et unus Dominus Iesus Christus per quem omnia et nos per ipsum
Yet to us there is but one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we unto him: and one Lord Jesus Christ, by whom are all things, and we by him.
|
7 |
sed non in omnibus est scientia quidam autem conscientia usque nunc idoli quasi idolothytum manducant et conscientia ipsorum cum sit infirma polluitur
But there is not knowledge in every one. For some until this present, with conscience of the idol, eat as a thing sacrificed to an idol: and their conscience, being weak, is defiled.
|
8 |
esca autem nos non commendat Deo neque si non manducaverimus deficiemus neque si manducaverimus abundabimus
But meat doth not commend us to God. For neither, if we eat, shall we have the more: nor, if we eat not, shall we have the less.
|
9 |
videte autem ne forte haec licentia vestra offendiculum fiat infirmibus
But take heed lest perhaps this your liberty become a stumblingblock to the weak.
|
10 |
si enim quis viderit eum qui habet scientiam in idolio recumbentem nonne conscientia eius cum sit infirma aedificabitur ad manducandum idolothyta
For if a man see him that hath knowledge sit at meat in the idol's temple, shall not his conscience, being weak, be emboldened to eat those things which are sacrificed to idols?
|
11 |
et peribit infirmus in tua scientia frater propter quem Christus mortuus est
And through thy knowledge shall the weak brother perish, for whom Christ hath died?
|
12 |
sic autem peccantes in fratres et percutientes conscientiam eorum infirmam in Christo peccatis
Now when you sin thus against the brethren and wound their weak conscience, you sin against Christ.
|
13 |
quapropter si esca scandalizat fratrem meum non manducabo carnem in aeternum ne fratrem meum scandalizem
Wherefore, if meat scandalize my brother, I will never eat flesh, lest I should scandalize my brother.
