24. Let no one seek his own, but each one the other’s well-being.
25. Eat whatever is sold in the meat market, asking no question for the sake of conscience,
26. for “The earth is the Lord’s, and everything in it.”
27. If any of those who do not believe invite you to a feast, and you desire to go, eat whatever is set before you, asking no question for the sake of conscience.
28. But if anyone says to you, “This was offered in sacrifice to idols,” do not eat it for the sake of him that mentioned it and for the sake of conscience, for “The earth is the Lord’s, and everything in it.”
29. Conscience, I say, not your own, but that of the other. For why is my liberty judged by another man’s conscience?
30. If I partake with thankfulness, why am I slandered concerning that for which I give thanks?
31. Therefore, whether you eat, or drink, or whatever you do, do it all to the glory of God.
32. Give no offense, neither to the Jews, nor to the Gentiles, nor to the church of God,
33. just as I try to please all men in all things, not seeking my own profit, but the profit of many, that they may be saved.
