| [1]NowG1161 as touchingG4012 things offered unto idolsG1494, we knowG1492[G5758] thatG3754 we allG3956 haveG2192[G5719] knowledgeG1108. KnowledgeG1108 puffeth upG5448[G5719], butG1161 charityG26 edifiethG3618.[G5719] |
[1]But of these thingis that ben sacrified to ydols, we witen, for alle we han kunnyng. But kunnyng blowith, charite edefieth. |
| [2]AndG1161 if any manG1536 thinkG1380[G5719] that he knowethG1492[G5760] any thingG5100, he knowethG1097[G5758] nothingG3762 yetG3764 asG2531 he oughtG1163[G5748] to knowG1097.[G5629] |
[2]But if ony man gessith, that he kan ony thing, he hath not yit knowe hou it bihoueth hym to kunne. |
| [3]ButG1161 if any manG1536 loveG25[G5719] GodG2316, the sameG3778 is knownG1097[G5769] ofG5259 himG846. |
[3]And if ony man loueth God, this is knowun of hym. |
| [4]As concerningG4012 thereforeG3767 the eatingG1035 of those things that are offered in sacrifice unto idolsG1494, we knowG1492[G5758] thatG3754 an idolG1497 is nothingG3762 inG1722 the worldG2889, andG2532 thatG3754 there is noneG3762 otherG2087 GodG2316 butG1508 oneG1520. |
[4]But of metis that ben offrid to idols, we witen, that an idol is no thing in the world, and that ther is no God but oon. |
| [5]ForG1063 thoughG1512[G2532] there beG1526[G5748] that are calledG3004[G5746] godsG2316, whetherG1535 inG1722 heavenG3772 orG1535 inG1909 earthG1093, (asG5618 there beG1526[G5748] godsG2316 manyG4183, andG2532 lordsG2962 manyG4183,) |
[5]For thouy ther ben summe that ben seid goddis, ethir in heuene, ether in erthe, as ther ben many goddis, and many lordis; |
| [6]ButG235 to usG2254 there is but oneG1520 GodG2316, the FatherG3962, ofG1537 whomG3739 are all thingsG3956, andG2532 weG2249 inG1519 himG846; andG2532 oneG1520 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, byG1223 whomG3739 are all thingsG3956, andG2532 weG2249 byG1223 himG846. |
[6]netheles to vs is o God, the fadir, of whom ben alle thingis, and we in hym; and o Lord Jhesu Crist, bi whom ben alle thingis, and we bi hym. |
| [7]HowbeitG235 there is notG3756 inG1722 every manG3956 that knowledgeG1108: forG1161 someG5100 with conscienceG4893 of the idolG1497 untoG2193 this hourG737 eatG2068[G5719] it asG5613 a thing offered unto an idolG1494; andG2532 theirG846 conscienceG4893 beingG5607[G5752] weakG772 is defiledG3435.[G5743] |
[7]But not in alle men is kunnyng. For summen with conscience of ydol til now eten as thing offrid to idolis; and her conscience is defoulid, for it is sijk. |
| [8]ButG1161 meatG1033 commendethG3936[G5719] usG2248 notG3756 to GodG2316: forG1063 neitherG3777, ifG1437 we eatG5315[G5632], are we the betterG4052[G5719]; neitherG3777, ifG3362 we eatG5315[G5632] notG3362, are we the worseG5302.[G5743] |
[8]Mete comendith vs not to God; for nether we schulen faile, if we eten not, nether if we eten, we schulen haue plente. |
| [9]ButG1161 take heedG991[G5720] lestG3381 by any meansG4458 thisG3778 libertyG1849 of yoursG5216 becomeG1096[G5638] a stumblingblockG4348 to them that are weakG770.[G5723] |
[9]But se ye, lest perauenture this your leeue be maad hurtyng to sijke men. |
| [10]ForG1063 ifG1437 any manG5100 seeG1492[G5632] theeG4571 whichG3588 hastG2192[G5723] knowledgeG1108 sit at meatG2621[G5740] inG1722 the idol's templeG1493, shallG3618 notG3780 the conscienceG4893 of himG846 which isG5607[G5752] weakG772 be emboldenedG3618[G5701][G1519] to eatG2068[G5721] those things which are offered to idolsG1494; |
[10]For if ony man schal se hym, that hath kunnyng, etynge in a place where idols ben worschipid, whethir his conscience, sithen it is sijke, schal not be edified to ete thingis offrid to idols? |
| [11]AndG2532 throughG1909 thyG4674 knowledgeG1108 shallG622 the weakG770[G5723] brotherG80 perishG622[G5689], forG1223 whomG3739 ChristG5547 diedG599?[G5627] |
[11]And the sijk brothir, for whom Crist diede, schal perische in thi kunnyng. |
| [12]ButG1161 when ye sinG264[G5723] soG3779 againstG1519 the brethrenG80, andG2532 woundG5180[G5723] theirG846 weakG770[G5723] conscienceG4893, ye sinG264[G5719] againstG1519 ChristG5547. |
[12]For thus ye synnyng ayens britheren, and smytynge her sijk conscience synnen ayens Crist. |
| [13]WhereforeG1355, ifG1487 meatG1033 makeG4624 myG3450 brotherG80 to offendG4624[G5719], I will eatG5315[G5632] noG3364 fleshG2907 while the world standethG1519[G165], lestG3363 I makeG4624 myG3450 brotherG80 to offendG4624.[G5661] |
[13]Wherfor if mete sclaundrith my brother, Y schal neuere ete fleisch, lest Y sclaundre my brothir. |
