  ²³“All things are lawful for me,” but not all things are profitable. “All things are lawful for me,” but not all things build up.

  ²⁴Let no one seek his own, but each one his neighbor’s good.

  ²⁵Whatever is sold in the butcher shop, eat, asking no question for the sake of conscience,

  ²⁶for “the earth is the Lord’s, and its fullness.”

  ²⁷But if one of those who don’t believe invites you to a meal, and you are inclined to go, eat whatever is set before you, asking no questions for the sake of conscience.

  ²⁸But if anyone says to you, “This was offered to idols,” don’t eat it for the sake of the one who told you, and for the sake of conscience. For “the earth is the Lord’s, with all its fullness.”

  ²⁷After these things he went out, and saw a tax collector named Levi sitting at the tax office, and said to him, “Follow me!”

  ²⁸He left everything, and rose up and followed him.

  ²⁹Levi made a great feast for him in his house. There was a great crowd of tax collectors and others who were reclining with them.

  ³⁰Their scribes and the Pharisees murmured against his disciples, saying, “Why do you eat and drink with the tax collectors and sinners?”

  ³¹Jesus answered them, “Those who are healthy have no need for a physician, but those who are sick do.

  ³²I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.”
