| But because of immoralities, each man should have relations with 1 his own wife and each woman with 2 her own husband. |
| (1.00) | 1Co 7:21 |
| Were you called as a slave? 1 Do not worry about it. But if indeed you are able to be free, make the most of the opportunity. |
| (1.00) | 1Co 7:23 |
| You were bought with a price. Do not become slaves of men. |
| (1.00) | 1Co 7:28 |
| But if you marry, you have not sinned. And if a virgin marries, she has not sinned. But those who marry will face difficult circumstances, 1 and I am trying to spare you such problems. 2 |
| (1.00) | 1Co 7:30 |
| those with tears like those not weeping, those who rejoice like those not rejoicing, those who buy like those without possessions, |
| (1.00) | 1Co 7:31 |
| those who use the world as though they were not using it to the full. For the present shape of this world is passing away. |
| (1.00) | 1Co 7:32 |
| And I want you to be free from concern. An unmarried man is concerned about the things of the Lord, how to please the Lord. |
| (1.00) | 1Co 7:33 |
| But a married man is concerned about the things of the world, how to please his wife, |
| (1.00) | 1Co 7:34 |
| and he is divided. An unmarried woman 1 or a virgin 2 is concerned about the things of the Lord, to be holy both in body and spirit. But a married woman is concerned about the things of the world, how to please her husband. |

| With regard then to eating food sacrificed to idols, we know that “an idol in this world is nothing,” and that “there is no God but one.” 1 |
| (1.00) | 1Co 8:5 |
| If after all there are so-called gods, whether in heaven or on earth (as there are many gods and many lords), |
| (1.00) | 1Co 8:7 |
| But this knowledge is not shared by all. And some, by being accustomed to idols in former times, eat this food as an idol sacrifice, and their conscience, because it is weak, is defiled. |
| (1.00) | 1Co 8:8 |
| Now food will not bring us close to God. We are no worse if we do not eat and no better if we do. |
| (1.00) | 1Co 8:10 |
| For if someone weak sees you who possess knowledge dining in an idol’s temple, will not his conscience be “strengthened” 1 to eat food offered to idols? |
| (1.00) | 1Co 8:12 |
| If you sin against your brothers or sisters 1 in this way and wound their weak conscience, you sin against Christ. |
| (1.00) | 1Co 8:13 |
| For this reason, if food causes my brother or sister to sin, I will never eat meat again, so that I may not cause one of them 1 to sin. |
| (1.00) | 1Co 9:1 |
| Am I not free? Am I not an apostle? Have I not seen Jesus our Lord? Are you not my work in the Lord? |
| (1.00) | 1Co 9:2 |
| If I am not an apostle to others, at least I am to you, for you are the confirming sign 1 of my apostleship in the Lord. |
| (1.00) | 1Co 9:6 |
| Or do only Barnabas and I lack the right not to work? |
