“ If anyone causes one of these little ones— those who believe in me— to stumble, it would be better for them to have a large millstone hung around their neck and to be drowned in the depths of the sea.

“ What if someone causes one of these little ones who believe in me to sin? If they do, it would be better for them to have a large millstone hung around their neck and be drowned at the bottom of the sea.

but whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in me to sin, it would be better for him to have a great millstone fastened around his neck and to be drowned in the depth of the sea.

But if you cause one of these little ones who trusts in me to fall into sin, it would be better for you to have a large millstone tied around your neck and be drowned in the depths of the sea.

“ But whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in me to fall away— it would be better for him if a heavy millstone were hung around his neck and he were drowned in the depths of the sea.

耶稣又对门徒说：“绊倒人的事是免不了的，但那绊倒人的有祸了！人若把这些小子中的一个绊倒的，还不如把磨石拴在他的颈项上，丢在海里。

所以，我们不可再彼此评断，宁可决意不给弟兄放置障碍或绊脚石。我凭着主耶稣确知深信，凡物本来没有不洁净的，除非人以为不洁净的，在他就不洁净了。你若因食物使弟兄忧愁，就不是按着爱心行事。基督已经为他死，你不可因你的食物使他败坏。

既然上帝是公义的，他必以患难报复那加患难给你们的人，也必使你们这受患难的人与我们同得平安。那时，主耶稣同他有权能的天使从天上在火焰中显现，要报应那些不认识上帝和不听从我们的主耶稣福音的人。

你们在天上的父也是这样，不愿意失去这些小子中的一个。”

“你们要小心，不可轻看这些小子中的一个；我告诉你们，他们的天使在天上，常见我天父的面。

可是，你们要谨慎，免得你们这自由竟成了软弱人的绊脚石。若有人见你这有知识的在偶像的庙里坐席，而这人的良心是软弱的，他岂不放胆去吃那祭过偶像的食物吗？因此，基督为他死的那软弱弟兄，也就因你的知识沉沦了。你们这样得罪弟兄，伤了他们软弱的良心，就是得罪基督。所以，食物若使我的弟兄跌倒，我就永远不吃肉，免得使我的弟兄跌倒了。

“不可伤害我的受膏者，也不可恶待我的先知。”

你们不要使犹太人、希腊人，或上帝教会中的人跌倒；但要像我一样，凡事都使众人喜欢，不求自己的益处，只求众人的益处，使他们得救。

我们坚强的人应该分担不坚强的人的软弱，不求自己的喜悦。我们各人务必要让邻人喜悦，使他得益处，得造就。因为基督也不求自己的喜悦，如经上所记：“辱骂你的人的辱骂都落在我身上。”

万军之耶和华说：刀剑哪，兴起攻击我的牧人，攻击我的同伴吧！要击打牧人，羊就分散了；我必反手攻击那微小的。

无论是吃肉是喝酒，是什么别的事，使弟兄跌倒，一概不做，才是善的。

万军之耶和华在显出荣耀之后，差遣我到掳掠你们的列国那里，他如此说：“碰你们的就是碰他自己眼中的瞳人。

他说：“主啊！你是谁？”主说：“我就是你所迫害的耶稣。
