1 Corinthians 10:5-22

5NeverthelessG235, with mostG4183 of them GodG2316 was not well-pleasedG2106; for 1they were laidG2693 lowG2693 in the wildernessG2048.

6NowG1161 theseG3778 thingsG3778 happenedG1096 as 2examplesG5179 for us, soG1519 that we would not craveG1510G1938 evilG2556 thingsG2556 as 3they alsoG2548 cravedG1937. 7Do not be 4idolatersG1496, as someG5100 of them were; as it is writtenG1125, “5The peopleG2992 satG2523 downG2523 to eatG2068 and drinkG4095, and stoodG450 up to 6playG3815.” 8NorG3366 let us actG4203 immorallyG4203, as 7someG5100 of them 8didG4203, and 9twenty-threeG1501G5140 thousandG5505 fellG4098 in oneG1520 dayG2250. 9NorG3366 let us tryG1598 the LordG2962, as 10someG5100 of them 11didG3985, and were destroyedG622 by the serpentsG3789. 10NorG3366 12grumbleG1111, as someG5100 of them 13didG1111, and 14were destroyedG622 by the 15destroyerG3644. 11NowG1161 theseG3778 thingsG3778 happenedG4819 to them as an 16exampleG5179, and 17they were writtenG1125 for our instructionG3559, upon whomG3739 18the endsG5056 of the agesG165 have comeG2658. 12ThereforeG5620 let him who 19thinksG1380 he standsG2476 takeG991 heedG991 that he does not fallG4098. 13NoG3756 temptationG3986 has overtakenG2983 you but suchG442 as is commonG442 to manG442; and 20GodG2316 is faithfulG4103, whoG3739 will not allowG1439 you to be 21temptedG3985 beyondG5228 whatG3739 you are ableG1410, but with the temptationG3986 will provideG4160 the wayG1545 of escapeG1545 alsoG2532, so that you will be ableG1410 to endureG5297 it.

14ThereforeG1355, my 22belovedG27, fleeG5343 from 23idolatryG1495. 15I speakG3004 as to wiseG5429 menG5429; you judgeG2919 whatG3739 I sayG5346. 16Is not the 24cupG4221 of blessingG2129 whichG3739 we blessG2127 a sharingG2842 in the bloodG129 of ChristG5547? Is not the 2526breadG740 whichG3739 we breakG2806 a sharingG2842 in the bodyG4983 of ChristG5547? 17SinceG3754 there is oneG1520 27breadG740, we 28who are manyG4183 are oneG1520 bodyG4983; for we allG3956 partakeG3348 of the oneG1520 29breadG740. 18LookG991 at 30the nationG4561 31IsraelG2474; are not thoseG3588 who 32eatG2068 the sacrificesG2378 sharersG2844 in the altarG2379? 19WhatG5101 do I meanG5346 thenG3767? That a thingG1494 sacrificedG1494 to idolsG1494 is anythingG5100, orG2228 33that an idolG1497 is anythingG5100? 20No, but I say that the things whichG3739 the GentilesG1484 sacrificeG2380, they 34sacrificeG2380 to demonsG1140 and not to GodG2316; and I do not wantG2309 you to becomeG1096 sharersG2844 in demonsG1140. 2135You cannotG1410G3756 drinkG4095 the cupG4221 of the LordG2962 and the cupG4221 of demonsG1140; you cannotG1410G3756 partakeG3348 of the tableG5132 of the LordG2962 and 36the tableG5132 of demonsG1140. 22OrG2228 do we 37provokeG3863 the LordG2962 to jealousyG3863? We are not 38strongerG2478 than He, are we?
