No trial has confronted you except what a person can stand. God is faithful, and he will not allow you to be tried beyond your strength. But together with the trial he will also provide a way out and the strength to bear it. | No temptation has overtaken you except what is common to mankind. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can endure it. |
“All things are lawful,” you may say—but not all things are beneficial. All things may be lawful—but not all things are constructive. | “I have the right to do anything,” you say—but not everything is beneficial. “I have the right to do anything”—but not everything is constructive. |
No one should seek his own advantage in preference to that of his neighbor. | No one should seek their own good, but the good of others. |
Therefore, whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do everything for the glory of God. | So whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God. |
