⁴ So let us answer the question about eating meat that has been sacrificed to idols once and for all. An idol is not a god because there is only one true God. ⁵ For even if there are so-called gods,^(C1) whether in heaven or on earth—as there are many “gods” and many “lords”— ⁵ For though there bee that are called gods, whether in heauen or in earth (as there be gods many, and lords many:)

⁵ For though there be that are called gods, whether in heaven or in earth, (as there be gods many, and lords many,) ⁵ For although there may be ^(j)so-called gods in heaven or on earth—as indeed there are many "gods" and many "lords"—⁵ For even if ^(C1)there are so-called gods whether in heaven or on earth, as indeed there are many gods and many lords, ⁵ Even though there are things called gods, in heaven or on earth (and there are many "gods" and "lords"), ⁵ For even if ^(C1)there are so-called gods, whether in heaven or on earth, as indeed there are many gods and many lords,⁵ For even if ^(C1)there are so-called gods whether in heaven or on earth, as indeed there are many gods and many lords,⁵ For even if ^(C1)there are so-called gods whether in heaven or on earth, as indeed there are many gods and many lords,⁵ For even if there are so-called gods, whether in heaven or on earth (as there are many so-called gods and lords), ⁵ Many things in heaven and on earth are called gods and lords, but none of them really are gods or lords. ⁵ For even if there are so-called "gods," either in heaven or on earth — as in fact there are "gods" and "lords" galore —

⁵ For and if indeed there are [those] called gods, whether in heaven or on earth, (as there are gods many, and lords many,) ⁵ It's really not important if there are things called gods in heaven or on earth—and there are many of these "gods" and "lords" out there.⁵ For though there bee that are called gods, whether in heauen, or in earth (as there be many gods, and many lords)⁵ For though there are those that are called gods, whether in heaven or earth, just as there are many gods and many lords, ⁵ Even if there are so-called "gods," whether in heaven or on earth, and even though there are many of these "gods" and "lords," ⁵ For even if after all there are so-called gods, whether in heaven or on earth, just as there are many gods and many lords,⁵ For even if some are called gods, either in the heavens or on the earth; (even as there are many gods, and many lords); ⁵ For though there be that are called gods, whether in heaven or on earth; as there are gods many, and lords many; ⁵ For though there are those who have the name of gods, in heaven or on earth, as there are a number of gods and a number of lords,⁵ For though there are things that are called "gods," whether in the heavens or on eretz; as there are many "gods" and many "lords;" ⁵ For even if there are "gods" in heaven and on earth (as indeed there are many so-called "gods" and "lords"),[xr] ⁵ For there are also who are called gods, whether in heaven or in earth, as that there are gods many and lords many:⁵ For although there are what are called gods, whether in heaven, or on earth, (as there are gods many, and lords many,)⁵ And though there be that are called gods, whether in heauen or in earth, (as there be gods many, and lordes many:)⁵ For though there be that are called gods, whether in heaven or on earth; as there are gods many, and lords many; ⁵ For though there are things that are called "gods," whether in the heavens or on earth; as there are many "gods" and many "lords;" ⁵ For though there be that are called gods, whether in heaven or on earth, (as there are many gods and many lords) Yet to us there is but one God,⁵ For if so-called gods do exist, either in Heaven or on earth--and in fact there are many such gods and many such lords--⁵ For thouy ther ben summe that ben seid goddis, ethir in heuene, ether in erthe, as ther ben many goddis, and many lordis;⁵ For though there are those that are called gods, whether in heaven or on earth; as there are many gods, and many lords;⁵ For though there are that are called gods, whether in heaven or upon earth, (as there are gods many, and lords many) ⁵ If after all there are so-called gods, whether in heaven or on earth (as there are many gods and many lords), ⁵ For even if there are so-called gods, whether in heaven or on earth (as there are many gods and many lords), ⁵ There may be so-called gods both in heaven and on earth, and some people actually worship many gods and many lords. ⁵ Men have thought there are many such gods and lords in the sky and on the earth. ⁵ Indeed, even though there may be so-called gods in heaven or on earth—as in fact there are many gods and many lords— ⁵ For, if indeed there are so-called gods, whether in heaven or upon earth, - as indeed there are gods many and lords many,⁵ For although there be that are called gods, either in heaven or on earth (for there be gods many and lords many):⁵ For although there may be so-called gods in heaven or on earth--as indeed there are many "gods" and many "lords" --⁵ And though ther be yt are called goddes whether in heven other in erth (as ther be goddes many and lordes many)⁵ for even if there are those called gods, whether in heaven, whether upon earth -- as there are gods many and lords many --⁵ for even if there are those called gods, whether in Heaven, whether on earth—as there are many gods and many lords—⁵ And though there be that are called goddes, whether in heauen or in earth (as there be goddes many and lordes many)⁵ for tho' there are several titular deities, both in heaven and on earth: such as the whole crowd of gods, and lords among the Gentiles; ⁵ Who cares if someone says a rock or a stick is a god? You can call a horse a cow, but that don't make it true. People use the words "god" and "lord" all the time, but those are just made up words when used incorrectly. ⁶ yet for us there is one God, the Father.^(C1) All things are from him,^(C2) and we exist for him. And there is one Lord, Jesus Christ. All things are through him, and we exist through him.^(C3)

⁶ But to us there is but one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we in him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, by whom are all things, and we by him. ⁶ yet ^(k)for us there is one God, the Father, ^(l)from whom are all things and for whom we exist, and ^(m)one Lord, Jesus Christ, through whom are all things and ⁽ⁿ⁾through whom we exist.⁶ yet for us ^(C1)there is only one God, ^(C2)the Father, ^(C3)from whom are all things, and we exist for Him; and ^(C4)one Lord, Jesus Christ, ^(C5)by whom are all things, and we exist through Him.

⁶ yet to us [there is] one God, the Father, of whom all things, and *we* for him; and one Lord, Jesus Christ, by whom [are] all things, and *we* by him.
