1 Corinthians 8:9-13 Good News Bible Anglicised (GNBDC)

9. Be careful, however, not to let your freedom of action make those who are weak in the faith fall into sin.

10. Suppose a person whose conscience is weak in this matter sees you, who have so-called “knowledge”, eating in the temple of an idol; will not this encourage him to eat food offered to idols?

11. And so this weak person, your brother for whom Christ died, will perish because of your “knowledge”!

12. And in this way you will be sinning against Christ by sinning against your Christian brothers and sisters and wounding their weak conscience.

13. So then, if food makes my brother or sister sin, I will never eat meat again, so as not to make my brother or sister fall into sin.
