New Testament

1 Corinthians 10:26-33 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

26. "The earth and all its fullness belong to the Lord."

27. If you are invited by any unbelievers, and you are willing to go, you may eat whatever is set before you, without asking questions for the sake of conscience.

28. But if anyone says, "This has been sacrificed to idols," do not eat it, for the sake of the one who told you, and for the sake of conscience.

29. But I am referring to the conscience of the other person, not to yours. For why should my liberty be judged by the conscience of another?

30. If I partake with thanksgiving, why should I be slandered over that for which I give thanks?

31. Therefore, whether you eat or drink, or whatever else you may do, do everything for the glory of God.

32. Be without offense toward the Jews, and toward the Gentiles, and toward the Church of God,

33. just as I also, in all things, please everyone, not seeking what is best for myself, but what is best for many others, so that they may be saved.
