Wherefore, if food causes my brother to stumble, I will by no means eat meat, lest I cause my brother to stumble.

We then who are strong are obligated to bear with the infirmities of the weak, and not to please ourselves.

Who is weak, and I am not weak? Who is caused to stumble, and I do not burn [with indignation]?

Brothers, if a man is overtaken in any trespass, you who are spiritual restore such a person in a spirit of gentleness, looking out for yourself lest you also be tempted.

just as I also please all men in all things, not seeking my own profit, but the [profit] of many, that they may be saved.

For being free from all [men], I have made myself a servant to all, in order that I might win the more;

For how do you know, O wife, whether you will save your husband? Or how do you know, O husband, whether you will save your wife?

if somehow I may provoke to jealousy my fellow Jews, and I may save some of them.
