{It is} good neither to eat flesh, nor to drink wine, nor {any thing} whereby thy brother stumbleth, or is offended, or is made weak.

Giving no offence in any thing, that the ministry be not blamed:

Who is weak, and I am not weak? who is offended, and I burn not?

All things are lawful unto me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me, but I will not be brought under the power of any. {expedient: or, profitable}

Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil;

For though I be free from all {men}, yet have I made myself servant unto all, that I might gain the more.

If others be partakers of {this} power over you, {are} not we rather? Nevertheless we have not used this power; but suffer all things, lest we should hinder the gospel of Christ.

Even as I please all {men} in all {things}, not seeking mine own profit, but the {profit} of many, that they may be saved.

Now as Jannes and Jambres withstood Moses, so do these also resist the truth: men of corrupt minds, reprobate concerning the faith. {reprobate: or, of no judgment}

But I keep under my body, and bring {it} into subjection: lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be a castaway.

Then said he unto the disciples, It is impossible but that offences will come: but woe {unto him}, through whom they come!

And shall say, Cast ye up, cast ye up, prepare the way, take up the stumblingblock out of the way of my people.

{It is} good neither to eat flesh, nor to drink wine, nor {any thing} whereby thy brother stumbleth, or is offended, or is made weak.

If I then, {your} Lord and Master, have washed your feet; ye also ought to wash one another's feet.

Abstain from all appearance of evil.

Let your moderation be known unto all men. The Lord {is} at hand.

Notwithstanding, lest we should offend them, go thou to the sea, and cast an hook, and take up the fish that first cometh up; and when thou hast opened his mouth, thou shalt find a piece of money: that take, and give unto them for me and thee. {a piece...: or, a stater: it is half an ounce of silver, in value two shillings and six pence, sterling; about fifty five cents}

Give none offence, neither to the Jews, nor to the Gentiles, nor to the church of God: {Gentiles: Gr. Greeks}

That ye may approve things that are excellent; that ye may be sincere and without offence till the day of Christ; {approve: or, try} {are...: or, differ}

And through thy knowledge shall the weak brother perish, for whom Christ died?

And if thy right hand offend thee, cut it off, and cast {it} from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not {that} thy whole body should be cast into hell.

Who is weak, and I am not weak? who is offended, and I burn not?

To the weak became I as weak, that I might gain the weak: I am made all things to all {men}, that I might by all means save some.

For whosoever will save his life shall lose it; but whosoever shall lose his life for my sake and the gospel's, the same shall save it.

The priests shall not eat of any thing that is dead of itself, or torn, whether it be fowl or beast.
