Let no one seek his
own, but his neighbor's good.
(25)Whatever is sold in the market eat, asking no question for
conscience sake'; (26)for the earth is the Lord's, and the fullness
thereof.
(27)If any of the unbelieving bids you to a feast, and ye choose to
go, whatever is set before you eat, asking no question for conscience'
sake. (28)But if any one say to you: This is a thing sacrificed to a
god, eat it not, for his sake that showed it, and for conscience'
sake. (29)Conscience, I say, not thine own, but that of the other; for
why is my liberty judged by another's conscience? (30)If I partake
with thanks, why am I evil spoken of, for that for which I give
thanks?
(31)Whether therefore ye eat, or drink, or whatever ye do, do all to
the glory of God. (32)Give no occasion of stumbling, either to Jews or
Greeks, or to the church of God; (33)as I also please all in all

be covered. (7)For a man indeed ought not to cover his head, being the
image and glory of God; but the woman is the glory of the man. (8)For
the man is not of the woman; but the woman of the man. (9)And the man
was not created for the woman, but the woman for the man. (10)For this
cause ought the woman to have [the token of] authority on her head,
because of the angels.
(11)Nevertheless, neither is the woman without the man, nor the man
