23 All things are lawful for me; but all things are not expedient; all things are lawful for me; but all things edify not.

24 Let no one seek his own, but every one another's welfare.

25 Whatever is sold in the shambles eat, asking no questions for conscience sake.

26 For the earth is the Lord's, and the fulness thereof.

27 And if any of the unbelievers invite you, and ye are disposed to go, eat whatever is set before you, asking no questions for conscience sake.

28 But if any one say to you, This hath been sacrificed to an idol, eat not, for his sake that shewed thee, and for conscience sake.
