1 Corinthians 11:20-34

20Therefore, when you meet together in the same place, it is not to eat the Lord’s Supper—

21for each one takes his own supper beforehand, and one goes hungry while another gets drunk.

22What! It is certainly not that you do not have houses, is it? Don’t you have houses to eat and drink in? Or do you despise God’s community and try to humiliate those who have nothing? What shall I say to you? Shall I praise you? I don’t praise you for this!

23For I received from the Lord what I also passed on to you—that the Lord Yeshua, on the night He was betrayed, took matzah ;

24and when He had given thanks, He broke it and said, “This is My body, which is for you. Do this in memory of Me.”

25In the same way, He also took the cup, after supper, saying, “This cup is the new covenant in My blood. Do this, as often as you drink it, in memory of Me.”

26For as often as you eat this bread and drink this cup, you proclaim the Lord’s death until He comes.

27Therefore whoever eats the bread or drinks the Lord’s cup in an unworthy manner will be guilty of the body and the blood of the Lord.

28But a man must examine himself, and then let him eat of the bread and drink from the cup.

29For the one who eats and drinks without recognizing the body, eats and drinks judgment on himself.

30For this reason many among you are weak and sick, and quite a few have died.

31For if we were judging ourselves thoroughly, we wouldn’t be coming under judgment.

32But when we are judged, we are being disciplined by the Lord so that we might not be condemned along with the world.

33So then, my brothers and sisters, when you come together to eat, wait for one another.

34If anyone is hungry let him eat at home, so that when you meet it doesn’t lead to judgment. And the rest I will put in order when I come.
