¹⁶ Let it not be possible for men to say evil about your good:

¹⁷ Do not give evil for evil to any man. Let all your business be well ordered in the eyes of all men.

²⁹ Right and wrong, I say, not for you, but for the other man; for the fact that I am free is not dependent on another man's sense of right or wrong.

³⁰ But if I give praise to God for the food which I take, let no man say evil of me for that reason.

²⁰ And so that no man might be able to say anything against us in the business of this giving which has been put into our hands:

²¹ For the business has been so ordered by us as to have the approval, not only of the Lord, but of men.

²² Keep from every form of evil.
