Do we provoke the Lord to jealousy? are we stronger than he? (10:22) All things are lawful for me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me, but all things edify not. (10:23) Let no man seek his own, but every man another's [wealth]. (10:24) Whatsoever is sold in the shambles, [that] eat, asking no question for conscience sake: (10:25) For the earth [is] the Lord's, and the fulness thereof. (10:26) If any of them that believe not bid you [to a feast], and ye be disposed to go; whatsoever is set before you, eat, asking no question for conscience sake. (10:27) But if any man say unto you, This is offered in sacrifice unto idols, eat not for his sake that showed it, and for conscience sake: for the earth [is] the Lord's, and the fulness thereof: (10:28) Conscience, I say, not thine own, but of the other: for why is my liberty judged of another [man's] conscience? (10:29) For if I by grace be a partaker, why am I evil spoken of for that for which I give thanks? (10:30) Whether therefore ye eat, or drink, or whatsoever ye do, do all to the glory of God. (10:31) Give none offence, neither to the Jews, nor to the Gentiles, nor to the church of God: (10:32) Even as I please all [men] in all [things], not seeking mine own profit, but the [profit] of many, that they may be saved.
(10:33)
