for, “The earth is the Lord’s, and the fullness thereof.”
1 Corinthians 10:26 · BSB
The verses around it, from 1 Corinthians 10.
22 Are we trying to provoke the Lord to jealousy? Are we stronger than He?

24 No one should seek his own good, but the good of others.
25 Eat anything sold in the meat market without raising questions of conscience,
26 for, “The earth is the Lord’s, and the fullness thereof.”
27 If an unbeliever invites you to a meal and you want to go, eat anything set before you without raising questions of conscience.
28 But if someone tells you, “This food was offered to idols,” then do not eat it, for the sake of the one who told you and for the sake of conscience—
29 the other one’s conscience, I mean, not your own. For why should my freedom be determined by someone else’s conscience?
30 If I partake in the meal with thankfulness, why am I denounced because of that for which I give thanks?
