| 1至論祭邪神的肉，我們知道「我們都有知識。」但知識只會使人傲慢自大，愛德纔能立人。 | 1Now concerning those things that are sacrificed to idols, we know that we all have knowledge. Knowledge puffeth up; but charity edifieth. |
| 2若有人自以為知道什麼，這是他還不知道他該怎樣知道。 | 2And if any man think that he knoweth any thing, he hath not yet known as he ought to know. |
| 3然而，誰若愛天主，這人纔為天主所認識。 | 3But if any man love God, the same is known by him. |
| 4至論吃祭邪神的肉，我們知道：世上並沒有什麼邪神；也知道：除了一個天主外，沒有什麼神。 | 4But as for the meats that are sacrificed to idols, we know that an idol is nothing in the world, and that there is no God but one. |
| 5因為雖然有稱為神的，或在天上，或在地下，就如那許多「神」和許多「主」， | 5For although there be that are called gods, either in heaven or on earth (for there be gods many, and lords many). |
| 6可是為我們只有一個天主，就是聖父，萬物都出於他，而我們也歸於他；也只有一個主，就是耶穌基督，萬物藉他而有，我們也藉他而有。 | 6Yet to us there is but one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we unto him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, by whom are all things, and we by him. |
| 7不過這種知識不是人人都有的；有些人直到如今因拜慣了邪神，以為所吃的是祭邪神的肉，因為他們的良心軟弱，就受了玷污。 | 7But there is not knowledge in every one. For some until this present, with conscience of the idol: eat as a thing sacrificed to an idol, and their conscience, being weak, is defiled. |
| 8其實，食物不能使我們取悅於天主：我們不吃也無損，吃也無益。 | 8But meat doth not commend us to God. For neither, if we eat, shall we have the more; nor, if we eat not, shall we have the less. |
| 9但你們要謹慎，免得你們這自由的抉擇，成了軟弱人的絆腳石。 | 9But take heed lest perhaps this your liberty become a stumblingblock to the weak. |
| 10因為，如果有人看見你這有知識的，在邪神廟裏坐席，他的良心若是軟弱，豈不受到鼓勵而去吃祭邪神的肉嗎？ | 10For if a man see him that hath knowledge sit at meat in the idol's temple, shall not his conscience, being weak, be emboldened to eat those things which are sacrificed to idols? |
| 11那麼，這軟弱的人，基督為他而死的弟兄，也就因了你的知識而喪亡！ | 11And through thy knowledge shall the weak brother perish, for whom Christ hath died? |
| 12你們這樣得罪了弟兄們，傷了他們軟弱的良心，就是得罪基督。 | 12Now when you sin thus against the brethren, and wound their weak conscience, you sin against Christ. |
| 13為此，倘若食物使我的弟兄跌倒，我就永遠不吃肉，免得叫我的弟兄跌倒。 | 13Wherefore, if meat scandalize my brother, I will never eat flesh, lest I should scandalize my brother. |
