1 Corinthians 8:4
As concerning therefore the eating of those things that are offered in sacrifice unto idols, we know that an idol is nothing in the world, and that there is none other God but one.

וְיָֽדַעְתָּ הַיּוֹם וַהֲשֵֽׁבֹתָ אֶל-לְבָבֶךָ כִּי יְהוָה הוּא הָֽאֱלֹהִים בַּשָּׁמַיִם מִמַּעַל וְעַל-הָאָרֶץ מִתָּחַת אֵין עֽוֹד׃
Know therefore this day, and consider it in thine heart, that the LORD he is God in heaven above, and upon the earth beneath: there is none else.
εἷς θεὸς καὶ πατὴρ πάντων ὁ ἐπὶ πάντων καὶ διὰ πάντων καὶ ἐν πᾶσιν ὑμῖν
One God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all.
τί οὖν φημι ὅτι εἴδωλον τί ἐστιν ἢ ὅτι εἰδωλόθυτον τί ἐστιν;
What say I then? that the idol is any thing, or that which is offered in sacrifice to idols is any thing?
הֵן-אַתֶּם מֵאַיִן וּפָעָלְכֶם מֵאָפַע תּוֹעֵבָה יִבְחַר בָּכֶֽם׃
Behold, ye are of nothing, and your work of nought: an abomination is he that chooseth you.
εἷς γὰρ θεός εἷς καὶ μεσίτης θεοῦ καὶ ἀνθρώπων ἄνθρωπος Χριστὸς Ἰησοῦς
For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus;
אַֽל-תִּפְחֲדוּ וְאַל-תִּרְהוּ הֲלֹא מֵאָז הִשְׁמַעְתִּיךָ וְהִגַּדְתִּי וְאַתֶּם עֵדָי הֲיֵשׁ אֱלוֹהַּ מִבַּלְעָדַי וְאֵין צוּר בַּל-יָדָֽעְתִּי׃
Fear ye not, neither be afraid: have not I told thee from that time, and have declared it? ye are even my witnesses. Is there a God beside me? yea, there is no God; I know not any.
ὁ δὲ Ἰησοῦς ἀπεκρίθη αὐτῷ ὅτι Πρώτη πασῶν τῶν ἐντολῶν Ἄκουε Ἰσραήλ κύριος ὁ θεὸς ἡμῶν κύριος εἷς ἐστίν
And Jesus answered him, The first of all the commandments is, Hear, O Israel; The Lord our God is one Lord:
כֹּֽה-אָמַר יְהוָה מֶֽלֶךְ-יִשְׂרָאֵל וְגֹאֲלוֹ יְהוָה צְבָאוֹת אֲנִי רִאשׁוֹן וַאֲנִי אַחֲרוֹן וּמִבַּלְעָדַי אֵין אֱלֹהִֽים׃
Thus saith the LORD the King of Israel, and his redeemer the LORD of hosts; I am the first, and I am the last; and beside me there is no God.
כֹּֽה-אָמַר יְהוָה גֹּאֲלֶךָ וְיֹצֶרְךָ מִבָּטֶן אָנֹכִי יְהוָה עֹשֶׂה כֹּל נֹטֶה שָׁמַיִם לְבַדִּי רֹקַע הָאָרֶץ (מי) (אתי) מֵאִתִּֽי
Thus saith the LORD, thy redeemer, and he that formed thee from the womb, I am the LORD that maketh all things; that stretcheth forth the heavens alone; that spreadeth abroad the earth by myself;
ἀλλ' ἡμῖν εἷς θεὸς ὁ πατήρ ἐξ οὗ τὰ πάντα καὶ ἡμεῖς εἰς αὐτόν καὶ εἷς κύριος Ἰησοῦς Χριστός δι' οὗ τὰ πάντα καὶ ἡμεῖς δι' αὐτοῦ
But to us there is but one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we in him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, by whom are all things, and we by him.
אֲדֹנָי יְהוִה אַתָּה הַֽחִלּוֹתָ לְהַרְאוֹת אֶֽת-עַבְדְּךָ אֶת-גָּדְלְךָ וְאֶת-יָֽדְךָ הַֽחֲזָקָה אֲשֶׁר מִי-אֵל בַּשָּׁמַיִם וּבָאָרֶץ אֲשֶׁר-יַֽעֲשֶׂה כְמַֽעֲשֶׂיךָ וְכִגְבֽוּרֹתֶֽךָ׃
O Lord GOD, thou hast begun to shew thy servant thy greatness, and thy mighty hand: for what God is there in heaven or in earth, that can do according to thy works, and according to thy might?
נִבְעַר כָּל-אָדָם מִדַּעַת הֹבִישׁ כָּל-צֹרֵף מִפָּסֶל כִּי שֶׁקֶר נִסְכּוֹ וְלֹא-רוּחַ בָּֽם׃
Every man is brutish by his knowledge; every founder is confounded by the graven image: for his molten image is falsehood, and there is no breath in them.
אַתָּה הָרְאֵתָ לָדַעַת כִּי יְהוָה הוּא הָֽאֱלֹהִים אֵין עוֹד מִלְבַדּֽוֹ׃
Unto thee it was shewed, that thou mightest know that the LORD he is God; there is none else beside him.
ἐὰν γάρ τις ἴδῃ σὲ τὸν ἔχοντα γνῶσιν ἐν εἰδωλείῳ κατακείμενον οὐχὶ ἡ συνείδησις αὐτοῦ ἀσθενοῦς ὄντος οἰκοδομηθήσεται εἰς τὸ τὰ εἰδωλόθυτα ἐσθίειν
For if any man see thee which hast knowledge sit at meat in the idol's temple, shall not be the conscience of him which is weak emboldened to eat those things which are offered to idols;
τῷ δὲ βασιλεῖ τῶν αἰώνων ἀφθάρτῳ ἀοράτῳ μόνῳ σοφῶ θεῷ τιμὴ καὶ δόξα εἰς τοὺς αἰῶνας τῶν αἰώνων ἀμήν
Now unto the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only wise God, be honour and glory for ever and ever. Amen.
הוֹי אֹמֵר לָעֵץ הָקִיצָה עוּרִי לְאֶבֶן דּוּמָם הוּא יוֹרֶה הִנֵּה-הוּא תָּפוּשׂ זָהָב וָכֶסֶף וְכָל-רוּחַ אֵין בְּקִרְבּֽוֹ׃
Woe unto him that saith to the wood, Awake; to the dumb stone, Arise, it shall teach! Behold, it is laid over with gold and silver, and there is no breath at all in the midst of it.
μόνῳ σοφῷ Θεῷ σωτῆρι ἡμῶν δόξα καὶ μεγαλωσύνη κράτος καὶ ἐξουσία καὶ νῦν καὶ εἰς πάντας τοὺς αἰῶνας ἀμήν.
To the only wise God our Saviour, be glory and majesty, dominion and power, both now and ever. Amen.
כֹּה׀ אָמַר יְהוָה יְגִיעַ מִצְרַיִם וּֽסְחַר-כּוּשׁ וּסְבָאִים אַנְשֵׁי מִדָּה עָלַיִךְ יַעֲבֹרוּ וְלָךְ יִֽהְיוּ אַחֲרַיִךְ יֵלֵכוּ בַּזִּקִּים יַעֲבֹרוּ וְאֵלַיִךְ יִֽשְׁתַּחֲוּוּ אֵלַיִךְ יִתְפַּלָּלוּ אַךְ בָּךְ אֵל וְאֵין עוֹד אֶפֶס אֱלֹהִֽים׃
Thus saith the LORD, The labour of Egypt, and merchandise of Ethiopia and of the Sabeans, men of stature, shall come over unto thee, and they shall be thine: they shall come after thee; in chains they shall come over, and they shall fall down unto thee, they shall make supplication unto thee, saying, Surely God is in thee; and there is none else, there is no God.
רְאוּ׀ עַתָּה כִּי אֲנִי אֲנִי הוּא וְאֵין אֱלֹהִים עִמָּדִי אֲנִי אָמִית וַֽאֲחַיֶּה מָחַצְתִּי וַֽאֲנִי אֶרְפָּא וְאֵין מִיָּדִי מַצִּֽיל׃
See now that I, even I, am he, and there is no god with me: I kill, and I make alive; I wound, and I heal: neither is there any that can deliver out of my hand.
