22. do we arouse the Lord to jealousy? are we stronger than He?
23. All things to me are lawful, but all things are not profitable; all things to me are lawful, but all things do not build up;
24. let no one seek his own--but each another's.
25. Whatever in the meat-market is sold eat ye, not inquiring, because of the conscience,
26. for the Lord's [is] the earth, and its fulness;
27. and if any one of the unbelieving do call you, and ye wish to go, all that is set before you eat, nothing inquiring, because of the conscience;
28. and if any one may say to you, `This is a thing sacrificed to an idol,' --do not eat, because of that one who shewed [it], and of the conscience, for the Lord's [is] the earth and its fulness:
29. and conscience, I say, not of thyself, but of the other, for why [is it] that my liberty is judged by another's conscience?
30. and if I thankfully do partake, why am I evil spoken of, for that for which I give thanks?
31. Whether, then, ye eat, or drink, or do anything, do all to the glory of God;
32. become offenceless, both to Jews and Greeks, and to the assembly of God;
33. as I also in all things do please all, not seeking my own profit, but that of many--that they may be saved.
