Now concerning sacrifices to idols, we know that in all of us there is knowledge; and knowledge puffs up, but love builds.
Read uses your browser’s device speech, without a provider key. Studio creates media through a paid provider using your own key. INjeel cannot install voices or guarantee any accent, language, or Syriac voice. System settings and voices exposed to a browser can differ.
iPhone and iPad: In Settings → Accessibility, look for Read & Speak → Voices (called Spoken Content on older versions). Choose a language and dialect. For downloadable enhanced voices, Apple also documents VoiceOver → Speech → Add New Language; choose a voice/quality and allow the download to finish on Wi-Fi. You do not need to enable VoiceOver to use INjeel. Apple’s current guide · iOS/iPadOS voice downloads
Android: Open Settings → Accessibility → Text-to-speech output. Choose the preferred engine and language; use its voice-data/download options where available. Names and paths vary by manufacturer/engine; search Settings for “text-to-speech” if needed. Google’s settings and voice-data guide
macOS: Apple menu → System Settings → Accessibility → Read & Speak. Choose System voice; open its additional voice controls to browse languages, country/region variants and downloadable voices. Wait until downloads finish, then choose the voice. Older versions may use Spoken Content. Apple’s Mac voice guide
Return here and reopen the voice selector. If new voices do not appear, refresh or reopen the app/browser. Select the voice and adjust Speed here; a system default need not override an explicit app selection. Android browsers may use their speech engine rather than a forced voice. Some voices use network services; availability and pronunciation depend on your device/browser, not the scripture’s historical pronunciation.

Now concerning sacrifices to idols, we know that in all of us there is knowledge; and knowledge puffs up, but love builds.
܀
But if anyone thinks that he knows something, he does not yet know anything as he ought to know it.
܀
But if anyone loves Elohim, this one is known by him.
܀
Therefore concerning the eating of the sacrifices of idols, we know that an idol is nothing in the world, and that there is no other Elohim except one.
܀
For even if there are those called gods, whether in heaven or on earth, as there are many gods and many masters,
܀
yet for us there is one Elohim, the Father, from whom are all things, and we in him; and one Master YHWH, Y'shua the Mashiyach, by whom are all things, and we also by him.
܀
But there is not this knowledge in every person; for there are some who until now in their conscience eat it as sacrificed to idols; and because their conscience is weak, it is defiled.
܀
But food does not bring us near to Elohim; for if we eat, we do not abound; and if we do not eat, we are not in want.
܀
See then that this authority of yours does not become a stumbling-block to the weak.
܀
For if someone sees you who have knowledge reclining in an idol house, will not his conscience, because he is weak, be strengthened to eat what is sacrificed?
܀
And by your knowledge he who is weak, for whom Mashiyach died, will perish.
܀
And if you sin like this against your brothers and wound their weak consciences, you sin against Mashiyach.
܀
Because of this, if food is a stumbling-block to my brother, I will forever eat no flesh, so that I do not cause my brother to stumble.
