Chapter 10

1


 

  For I would not have you ignorant, brethren, that all our fathers were under the cloud, and all passed through the sea;  

 

 

-

2


 

  and all were baptised unto Moses in the cloud and in the sea;  

 

 

-

3


 

  and all ate the same spiritual food,  

 

 

-

4


 

  and all drank the same spiritual drink, for they drank of a spiritual rock which followed [them]: (now the rock was the Christ;)  

 

 

-

5


 

  yet God was not pleased with the most of them, for they were strewed in the desert.  

 

 

-

6


 

  But these things happened [as] types of us, that we should not be lusters after evil things, as they also lusted.  

 

 

-

7


 

  Neither be ye idolaters, as some of them; as it is written, The people sat down to eat and to drink, and rose up to play.  

 

 

-

8


 

  Neither let us commit fornication, as some of them committed fornication, and fell in one day three and twenty thousand.  

 

 

-

9


 

  Neither let us tempt the Christ, as some of them tempted, and perished by serpents.  

 

 

-

10


 

  Neither murmur ye, as some of them murmured, and perished by the destroyer.  

 

 

-

11


 

  Now all these things happened to them [as] types, and have been written for our admonition, upon whom the ends of the ages are come.  

 

 

-

12


 

  So that let him that thinks that he stands take heed lest he fall.  

 

 

-

13


 

  No temptation has taken you but such as is according to man's nature; and God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above what ye are able [to bear], but will with the temptation make the issue also, so that [ye] should be able to bear [it].  

 

 

-

14


 

  Wherefore, my beloved, flee from idolatry.  

 

 

-

15


 

  I speak as to intelligent [persons]: do ye judge what I say.  

 

 

-

16


 

  The cup of blessing which we bless, is it not [the] communion of the blood of the Christ? The bread which we break, is it not [the] communion of the body of the Christ?  

 

 

-

17


 

  Because we, [being] many, are one loaf, one body; for we all partake of that one loaf.  

 

 

-

18


 

  See Israel according to flesh: are not they who eat the sacrifices in communion with the altar?  

 

 

-

19


 

  What then do I say? that what is sacrificed to an idol is anything, or that an idol is anything?  

 

 

-

20


 

  But that what [the nations] sacrifice they sacrifice to demons, and not to God. Now I do not wish you to be in communion with demons.  

 

 

-

21


 

  Ye cannot drink [the] Lord's cup, and [the] cup of demons: ye cannot partake of [the] Lord's table, and of [the] table of demons.  

 

 

-

22


 

  Do we provoke the Lord to jealousy? are we stronger than he?  

 

 

-

23


 

  All things are lawful, but all are not profitable; all things are lawful, but all do not edify.  

 

 

-

24


 

  Let no one seek his own [advantage], but that of the other.  

 

 

-

25


 

  Everything sold in the shambles eat, making no inquiry for conscience sake.  

 

 

-

26


 

  For the earth [is] the Lord's and its fulness.  

 

 

-

27


 

  But if any one of the unbelievers invite you, and ye are minded to go, all that is set before you eat, making no inquiry for conscience sake.  

 

 

-

28


 

  But if any one say to you, This is offered to holy purposes, do not eat, for his sake that pointed it out, and conscience sake;  

 

 

-

29


 

  but conscience, I mean, not thine own, but that of the other: for why is my liberty judged by another conscience?  

 

 

-

30


 

  If I partake with thanksgiving, why am I spoken evil of for what I give thanks for?  

 

 

-

31


 

  Whether therefore ye eat, or drink, or whatever ye do, do all things to God's glory.  

 

 

-

32


 

  Give no occasion to stumbling, whether to Jews, or Greeks, or the assembly of God.  

 

 

-

33


 

  Even as I also please all in all things; not seeking my own profit, but that of the many, that they may be saved.
