13 Let vs not therfore iudge one another any more: But iudge this rather, that no man put a stumblyng blocke, or an occasion to fall, in his brothers way. 14 For I knowe, and am perswaded by the Lorde Iesus, that there is nothyng common of it selfe: but vnto hym that iudgeth it to be common, to hym is it common. 15 But yf thy brother be greeued with thy meat, nowe walkest thou not charitably. Destroy not hym with thy meat, for whom Christe dyed. 16 Let not your good be euyll spoken of. 17 For the kyngdome of God, is not meat and drinke: but righteousnesse, & peace, and ioy in the holy ghost. 18 For he that in these thynges serueth Christe, pleaseth God, and is comended of men. 19 Let vs therfore folowe those thynges which make for peace, & thynges wherwith one may edifie another. 20 Destroy not the worke of God for meates sake. All thinges are pure: but it is euyll for that man, which eateth with offence. 21 It is good neither to eate fleshe, neither to drinke wine, neither any thyng wherby thy brother stumbleth, either falleth, or is made weake.
