1 Corinthians 10:5-22

5NeverthelessG235, with mostG4183 of them GodG2316 was not pleasedG2106; for their dead bodies were 1spreadG2693 outG2693 in the wildernessG2048.

6NowG1161 theseG3778 thingsG3778 happenedG1096 as 2examplesG5179 for us, soG1519 thatG1519 we would not craveG1510G1938 evilG2556 thingsG2556 as 3they indeedG2548 cravedG1937 them. 7Do not be 4idolatersG1496, as someG5100 of them were; as it is writtenG1125: “5The peopleG2992 satG2523 downG2523 to eatG2068 and to drinkG4095, and roseG450 up to 6playG3815.” 8NorG3366 are we to commitG4203 sexualG4203 immoralityG4203, as 7someG5100 of them 8didG4203, and 9twenty-threeG1501G5140 thousandG5505 fellG4098 in oneG1520 dayG2250. 9NorG3366 are we to putG1598 the LordG2962 toG1598 theG1598 testG1598, as 10someG5100 of them 11didG3985, and were killedG622 by the snakesG3789. 10NorG3366 12grumbleG1111, as someG5100 of them 13didG1111, and 14were killedG622 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 the one who 19thinksG1380 he standsG2476 watchG991 outG991 that he does not fallG4098. 13NoG3756 temptationG3986 has overtakenG2983 you exceptG1508 something commonG442 toG442 mankindG442; and 20GodG2316 is faithfulG4103, 21soG3739 He will not allowG1439 you to be 22temptedG3985 beyondG5228 whatG3739 you are ableG1410, but with the temptationG3986 will provideG4160 the wayG1545 ofG1545 escapeG1545 alsoG2532, so that you will be ableG1410 to endureG5297 it.

14ThereforeG1355, my 23belovedG27, fleeG5343 from 24idolatryG1495. 15I speakG3004 as to wiseG5429 peopleG5429; you then, judgeG2919 whatG3739 I sayG5346. 16Is the 25cupG4221 of blessingG2129 whichG3739 we blessG2127 not a sharingG2842 in the bloodG129 of ChristG5547? Is the 26breadG740 whichG3739 we breakG2806 not a sharingG2842 in the bodyG4983 of ChristG5547? 17SinceG3754 there is oneG1520 loafG740, we 27who are manyG4183 are oneG1520 bodyG4983; for we allG3956 partakeG3348 of the oneG1520 loafG740. 18LookG991 at 28the peopleG4561 of 29IsraelG2474; are thoseG3588 who 30eatG2068 the sacrificesG2378 not partnersG2844 in the altarG2379? 19WhatG5101 do I meanG5346 thenG3767? That foodG1494 sacrificedG1494 toG1494 idolsG1494 is anythingG5100, orG2228 31that an idolG1497 is 32anythingG5100? 20No, but I say that things whichG3739 the Gentiles sacrificeG2380, they 33sacrificeG2380 to demonsG1140 and not to GodG2316; and I do not wantG2309 you to becomeG1096 partnersG2844 with demonsG1140. 2134You cannotG1410G3756 drinkG4095 the cupG4221 of the LordG2962 and the cupG4221 of demonsG1140; you cannotG1410G3756 partakeG3348 of the tableG5132 of the LordG2962 and 35the tableG5132 of demonsG1140. 22OrG2228 do we 36provokeG3863 the LordG2962 toG3863 jealousyG3863? We are not 37strongerG2478 than He, are we?
