或以為無不可之物、我則謂不盡有益、或以為無不可之事、我則謂不可役於彼、

凡事我都可行，但不都有益处。凡事我都可行，但无论哪一件，我总不受它的辖制。

“凡事我都可行”，但不是凡事都有益处。“凡事我都可行”，但无论哪一件，我都不受它的辖制。

“凡事我都可行”，但不是凡事都有益处。“凡事我都可行”，但无论哪一件，我都不受它的辖制。

凡事我都可以做，但并非事事都有益处；凡事我都可以做，但我不受任何事的辖制。

什么事我都可以作，但不是都有益处。什么事我都可以作，但我不要受任何事的辖制。

“什么事我都可以做”，但不都有益处；“什么事我都可以做”，但我却不受任何事的辖制。

凡事我都可行，但不都有益處。凡事我都可行，但無論哪一件，我總不受它的轄制。

「凡事我都可行」，但不是凡事都有益處。「凡事我都可行」，但無論哪一件，我都不受它的轄制。

「凡事我都可行」，但不是凡事都有益處。「凡事我都可行」，但無論哪一件，我都不受它的轄制。

凡事我都可以做，但並非事事都有益處；凡事我都可以做，但我不受任何事的轄制。

甚麼事我都可以作，但不是都有益處。甚麼事我都可以作，但我不要受任何事的轄制。

『凡事於我都可行』，但不都有益。『凡事於我都可行』，但我總不受任何事物的轄制。

「什麼事我都可以做」，但不都有益處；「什麼事我都可以做」，但我卻不受任何事的轄制。

凡物皆宜於我、然不盡有益、凡物皆宜於我、然不受其制、

物於我無不可用、但不盡有益、物於我無不可用、但我不服於一物、但我不服於一物或作但無一物能主我

『苟非犯罪、萬事皆可為之、』然亦有緩急輕重之分。『苟非犯罪、萬物皆可享之、』然亦不可令外物累吾之心、而使心為形役也。

“ I have the right to do anything,” you say— but not everything is beneficial.“ I have the right to do anything”— but I will not be mastered by anything.

Some of you say,“ I have the right to do anything.” But not everything is helpful. Again some of you say,“ I have the right to do anything.” But I will not be controlled by anything.

“ All things are lawful for me,” but not all things are helpful.“ All things are lawful for me,” but I will not be dominated by anything.

You say,“ I am allowed to do anything”— but not everything is good for you. And even though“ I am allowed to do anything,” I must not become a slave to anything.

“ Everything is permissible for me,” but not everything is beneficial.“ Everything is permissible for me,” but I will not be mastered by anything.

All things are permitted for me, but not all things are of benefit. All things are permitted for me, but I will not be mastered by anything.

All things are lawful for me, but all things are not helpful. All things are lawful for me, but I will not be brought under the power of any.

All things are lawful for me; but not all things are expedient. All things are lawful for me; but I will not be brought under the power of any.

“ Everything is permissible for me,” but not everything is helpful.“ Everything is permissible for me,” but I will not be brought under the control of anything.

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.

“ All things are lawful for me”– but not everything is beneficial.“ All things are lawful for me”– but I will not be controlled by anything.

“ All things are lawful for me,” but not all things are expedient.“ All things are lawful for me,” but I will not be brought under the power of anything.

或以為無不可之物、我則謂不盡有益、或以為無不可之事、我則謂不盡成德、勿第求益己、乃求益人、凡售於市者、不問而食、問則心疑、蓋天地萬有、無不屬主、有不信主者宴爾、爾欲往、所陳者勿問而食、問則心疑、設有告爾者曰、此祭偶像之物、則勿食、以告爾者、亦心疑故也、蓋天下萬物、無不屬主、所謂心疑者、非爾心、乃彼心也、奈何以我之得自由、使他人心非我哉、若我賴恩、共得此食而謝主、奈何見非於人乎、於是、或食或飲、不論何為、必歸榮上帝而為之、而俾人躓礙、或猶太、或希利尼、或上帝之會、如我凡事悅眾、不求益己、乃求益人、使其得救、

吾克己、使百體從令、恐教人而自治疏焉、

我宗主耶穌知之深、原無不潔之物、然以之為不潔、則不潔、若爾以所食、使兄弟憂、則所為不仁、基督且為之死、爾勿以所食敗之、勿以爾之可自由者、令人譭謗、蓋上帝國不在飲食、惟義與和、與聖神賜我之樂、行此而服基督者、為上帝所喜、世人所悅、故當求和、彼此輔德、勿以食故、暴棄上帝所生成、凡物皆潔、而以所食妨人、則不可、毋寧不食肉、不飲酒、不事事、致兄弟或躓或礙、而信不篤、惟爾不疑、存此心於上帝前、所行而內不疚、乃為有福、心疑而食者見罪、以其疑也、凡疑而故行之者、罪也、

眾人未知此、至今數人、謂有主偶像者、遂食厥祭物、是其知未至、故若浼焉、曰、我以食物、不能悅上帝、食者無益、不食者無損、曰、勿以一己之所得自由、令知未至者躓焉、彼知未至、見爾有知、席坐偶像之廟、不亦敢食祭偶像之物乎、如是、則知未至之兄弟、縱有基督代死、將以爾之知沉淪矣、然爾得罪兄弟、傷其知未至之心、亦得罪基督、獨何歟、蓋食物陷兄弟於罪、吾永不食肉以陷之矣、

非不能使爾供我、第為是模楷、欲爾曹則傚、

慎勿失上帝恩、恐有若惡草、根株滋長、妨爾浼眾、恐有淫行妄為者、如以掃緣一哺啜、鬻長子業、

諭食祭偶像之物、吾知宇宙間、無有主偶像者、亦知上帝獨一無他、

我儕知法本乎聖神、我乃狥欲、自鬻於惡、

爾曹相愛、肆筵設席、彼必與焉、是謀哺啜、玷爾潔清、終無所懼、彼偽師如密雲不雨、為風飄搖、如秋末之樹、果落莖枯、根株盡拔、

他人且操此權、況我乎、然我不為之、寧忍諸難、恐阻基督福音、
