18 Vede a Israel segundo a carne: por acaso os que comem os sacrifícios não são participantes do altar?

20 Mas eu digo, que as coisas que os gentios sacrificam, são sacrificadas para os demônios, e não a Deus. E não quero que sejais participantes dos demônios.

21 Não podeis beber o copo do Senhor e o copo dos demônios; não podeis ser participantes da mesa do Senhor e da mesa dos demônios.
