1 Corinthians 8:4-6
New Catholic Bible
4 Now in regard to the eating of meat sacrificed to idols, we know that idols are nothing in the world and that there is only one God. 5 Indeed, even though there are so-called gods in heaven and on earth—and there are in fact many gods and many lords— 6 for us there is
one God, the Father,
from whom all things are
and for whom we exist,[a]
and one Lord, Jesus Christ,
through whom all things are
and through whom we exist.
