哥林多前书 8
Revised Chinese Union Version (Simplified Script) Shen Edition
祭过偶像的食物
8 关于祭过偶像的食物，我们晓得“我们都有知识”，但知识使人自高自大，惟有爱心能造就人。 2 若有人自以为知道什么，他其实仍不知道他所应当知道的。 3 若有人爱 神，他就是 神所认识的人了。
4 关于吃祭过偶像的食物，我们知道“偶像在世上算不得什么”；也知道“ 神只有一位，没有别的”。 5 虽然在天上或地上有许多所谓的神明，就如他们中间有许多的神明，许多的主， 6 但是我们只有一位 神，就是父，万物都出于他，我们也归于他；并只有一位主，就是耶稣基督，万物都是藉着他而有，我们也是藉着他而有。
7 可是，不是人人都有这知识。有人到现在因拜惯了偶像，仍以为所吃的是祭过偶像的食物；既然他们的良心软弱，也就污秽了。 8 其实，食物不能使我们更接近 神，因为我们不吃也无损，吃也无益。
9 可是，你们要谨慎，免得你们这自由竟成了软弱人的绊脚石。 10 若有人见你这有知识的在偶像的庙里坐席，而这人的良心是软弱的，他岂不放胆去吃那祭过偶像的食物吗？ 11 因此，基督为他死的那软弱弟兄，也就因你的知识沉沦了。 12 你们这样得罪弟兄，伤了他们软弱的良心，就是得罪基督。 13 所以，食物若使我的弟兄跌倒，我就永远不吃肉，免得使我的弟兄跌倒了。
1 Corinthians 8
New King James Version
Be Sensitive to Conscience
8 Now (A)concerning things offered to idols: We know that we all have (B)knowledge. (C)Knowledge [a]puffs up, but love [b]edifies. 2 And (D)if anyone thinks that he knows anything, he knows nothing yet as he ought to know. 3 But if anyone loves God, this one is known by Him.
4 Therefore concerning the eating of things offered to idols, we know that (E)an idol is nothing in the world, (F)and that there is no other God but one. 5 For even if there are (G)so-called gods, whether in heaven or on earth (as there are many gods and many lords), 6 yet (H)for us there is one God, the Father, (I)of whom are all things, and we for Him; and (J)one Lord Jesus Christ, (K)through whom are all things, and (L)through whom we live.
7 However, there is not in everyone that knowledge; for some, (M)with consciousness of the idol, until now eat it as a thing offered to an idol; and their conscience, being weak, is (N)defiled. 8 But (O)food does not commend us to God; for neither if we eat are we the better, nor if we do not eat are we the worse.
9 But (P)beware lest somehow this liberty of yours become (Q)a [c]stumbling block to those who are weak. 10 For if anyone sees you who have knowledge eating in an idol’s temple, will not (R)the conscience of him who is weak be emboldened to eat those things offered to idols? 11 And (S)because of your knowledge shall the weak brother perish, for whom Christ died? 12 But (T)when you thus sin against the brethren, and wound their weak conscience, you sin against Christ. 13 Therefore, (U)if food makes my brother stumble, I will never again eat meat, lest I make my brother stumble.

Food Offered to Idols
8 Now concerning[a] (A)food offered to idols: we know that (B)“all of us possess knowledge.” This “knowledge” (C)puffs up, (D)but love builds up. 2 (E)If anyone imagines that he knows something, (F)he does not yet know as he ought to know. 3 But if anyone loves God, (G)he is known by God.[b]
4 Therefore, as to the eating of food offered to idols, we know that (H)“an idol has no real existence,” and that (I)“there is no God but one.” 5 For although there may be (J)so-called gods in heaven or on earth—as indeed there are many “gods” and many “lords”— 6 yet (K)for us there is one God, the Father, (L)from whom are all things and for whom we exist, and (M)one Lord, Jesus Christ, through whom are all things and (N)through whom we exist.
7 However, not all possess this knowledge. But some, (O)through former association with idols, eat food as really offered to an idol, and (P)their conscience, being weak, is defiled. 8 (Q)Food will not commend us to God. We are no worse off if we do not eat, and no better off if we do. 9 But take care (R)that this right of yours does not somehow become a stumbling block (S)to the weak. 10 For if anyone sees you who have knowledge eating[c] in an idol's temple, will he not be encouraged,[d] if his conscience is weak, to eat food offered to idols? 11 And so by your knowledge this weak person is (T)destroyed, the brother for whom Christ died. 12 Thus, sinning against your brothers[e] and (U)wounding their conscience when it is weak, (V)you sin against Christ. 13 Therefore, (W)if food makes my brother stumble, I will never eat meat, lest I make my brother stumble.
