Wherefore, if meat make my brother to offend, I will eat no flesh while the world standeth, lest I make my brother to offend.

Wherefore {G1355}, if {G1487} meat {G1033} make {G4624} my {G3450} brother {G80} to offend {G4624}, I will eat {G5315} no {G3364} flesh {G2907} while the world standeth {G1519}{G165}, lest {G3363} I make {G4624} my {G3450} brother {G80} to offend {G4624}.

To sum up, if food will be a snare for my brother, I will never eat meat again, lest I cause my brother to sin.

Therefore, if what I eat causes my brother to stumble, I will never eat meat again, so that I will not cause him to stumble.

Wherefore, if meat causeth my brother to stumble, I will eat no flesh for evermore, that I cause not my brother to stumble.
