1 Corinthians 8:9-12
English Standard Version
9 But take care (A)that this right of yours does not somehow become a stumbling block (B)to the weak. 10 For if anyone sees you who have knowledge eating[a] in an idol's temple, will he not be encouraged,[b] if his conscience is weak, to eat food offered to idols? 11 And so by your knowledge this weak person is (C)destroyed, the brother for whom Christ died. 12 Thus, sinning against your brothers[c] and (D)wounding their conscience when it is weak, (E)you sin against Christ.
