|
1. Moreover G1161 , brethren G80 , I would G2309 not G3756 that ye G5209 should be ignorant G50 , how that G3754 all G3956 our G2257 fathers G3962 were G2258 under G5259 the G3588 cloud G3507 , and G2532 all G3956 passed G1330 through G1223 the G3588 sea G2281 ;
|

|

|
|
6. But these things became examples for us, so that we may not be lusters after evil, even as those indeed lusted.
|
6. Now G1161 these things G5023 were G1096 our G2257 examples G5179 , to the intent we G2248 should not lust after G1511 G3361 G1938 evil things G2556 , as G2531 they also G2548 lusted G1937 .
|
|
7. Neither be idolaters, even as some of them, as it has been written, "The people sat down to eat and drink, and stood up to play." Ex. 32:6
|
7. Neither G3366 be G1096 ye idolaters G1496 , as G2531 were some G5100 of them G846 ; as G5613 it is written G1125 , The G3588 people G2992 sat down G2523 to eat G5315 and G2532 drink G4095 , and G2532 rose up G450 to play G3815 .
|
|
8. Nor should we commit fornication, as some of them fornicated, and twenty three thousand fell in one day.
|
8. Neither G3366 let us commit fornication G4203 , as G2531 some G5100 of them G846 committed G4203 , and G2532 fell G4098 in G1722 one G3391 day G2250 three and twenty thousand G5140 G1501 G5505 .
|
|
9. Neither test Christ, as some of them tried Him, and perished by serpents.
|
9. Neither G3366 let us tempt G1598 Christ G5547 , as G2531 some G5100 of them G846 also G2532 tempted G3985 , and G2532 were destroyed G622 of G5259 serpents G3789 .
|
|
10. Neither should you murmur, as also some of them murmured, and perished by the destroyer.
|
10. Neither G3366 murmur G1111 ye, as G2531 some G5100 of them G846 also G2532 murmured G1111 , and G2532 were destroyed G622 of G5259 the G3588 destroyer G3644 .
|
|
11. And all these things happened to those as examples, and it was written for our warning, on whom the ends of the ages have come.

|
|
13. No temptation has taken you except what is human; but God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted above what you are able. But with the temptation, He will also make the way out, so that you may be able to bear it.
|
13. There hath no G3756 temptation G3986 taken G2983 you G5209 but G1508 such as is common to man G442 : but G1161 God G2316 is faithful G4103 , who G3739 will not G3756 suffer G1439 you G5209 to be tempted G3985 above G5228 that G3739 ye are able G1410 ; but G235 will with G4862 the G3588 temptation G3986 also G2532 make G4160 a way to escape G1545 , that ye G5209 may be able G1410 to bear G5297 it.
|
|

|
15. I speak G3004 as G5613 to wise men G5429 ; judge G2919 ye G5210 what G3739 I say G5346 .
|
|
16. The cup of blessing that we bless, is it not a partaking of the blood of Christ? The bread which we break, is it not a partaking of the body of Christ?
|
16. The G3588 cup G4221 of blessing G2129 which G3739 we bless G2127 , is G2076 it not G3780 the communion G2842 of the G3588 blood G129 of Christ G5547 ? The G3588 bread G740 which G3739 we break G2806 , is G2076 it not G3780 the communion G2842 of the G3588 body G4983 of Christ G5547 ?
|
|
17. Because we, the many, are one bread, one body, for we all partake of the one bread.
|
17. For G3754 we being many G4183 are G2070 one G1520 bread G740 , and one G1520 body G4983 : for G1063 we are all partakers G3348 G3956 of G1537 that one G1520 bread G740 .
|
|
18. Look at Israel according to flesh; are not those eating the sacrifices partakers of the altar?
|
18. Behold G991 Israel G2474 after G2596 the flesh G4561 : are G1526 not G3780 they which eat G2068 of the G3588 sacrifices G2378 partakers G2844 of the G3588 altar G2379 ?
|
|
19. What then do I say, that an idol is anything, or that an idolatrous sacrifice is anything?
|
19. What G5101 say G5346 I then G3767 ? that G3754 the idol G1497 is G2076 any thing G5100 , or G2228 G3754 that which is offered in sacrifice to idols G1494 is G2076 any thing G5100 ?
|
|
20. But the things the nations sacrifice, "they sacrifice to demons, and not to God." Deut. 32:17 But I do not want you to become sharers of demons;
|
20. But G235 I say, that G3754 the things which G3739 the G3588 Gentiles G1484 sacrifice G2380 , they sacrifice G2380 to devils G1140 , and G2532 not G3756 to God G2316 : and G1161 I would G2309 not G3756 that ye G5209 should have G1096 fellowship G2844 with devils G1140 .
|
|
21. you cannot drink the cup of the Lord and a cup of demons; you cannot partake of the table of the Lord, and a table of demons.
|
21. Ye cannot G1410 G3756 drink G4095 the cup G4221 of the Lord G2962 , and G2532 the cup G4221 of devils G1140 : ye cannot G1410 G3756 be partakers G3348 of the Lord G2962 's table G5132 , and G2532 of the table G5132 of devils G1140 .
|
|
22. Or do we provoke the Lord to jealousy? Are we stronger than He? Deut. 32:21
|
22. Do we G2228 provoke the Lord to jealousy G3863 G3588 G2962 ? are G2070 we G3361 stronger G2478 than he G846 ?
|
|
23. All things are lawful to me, but not all things profit. All things are lawful to me, but not all things build up.
|
23. All things G3956 are lawful G1832 for me G3427 , but G235 all things G3956 are not expedient G4851 G3756 : all things G3956 are lawful G1832 for me G3427 , but G235 all things G3956 edify G3618 not G3756 .
|
|
24. Let no one seek the things of himself, but each one that of the other.
|
24. Let no man G3367 seek G2212 his own G1438 , but G235 every man G1538 another G2087 's wealth.
|
|

|
25. Whatsoever G3956 is sold G4453 in G1722 the meat market G3111 , that eat G2068 , asking no question G350 G3367 for conscience sake G1223 G4893 :
|
|
26. for "the earth is the Lord's, and the fullness of it." Psa. 24:1
|
26. For G1063 the G3588 earth G1093 is the G3588 Lord G2962 's, and G2532 the G3588 fullness G4138 thereof G848 .
|
|
27. And if any of the unbelievers invite you, and you desire to go, eat everything set before you, examining nothing because of conscience.
|
27. G1161 If G1487 any G5100 of them that believe not G571 bid G2564 you G5209 to a feast, and G2532 ye be disposed G2309 to go G4198 ; whatsoever G3956 is set before G3908 you G5213 , eat G2068 , asking no question G350 G3367 for conscience sake G1223 G4893 .
|
|
28. But if anyone tells you, This is slain in sacrifice to idols, do not eat, because of that one pointing it out, and the conscience; for "the earth is the Lord's, and the fullness of it." Psa. 24:1
|
28. But G1161 if G1437 any man G5100 say G2036 unto you G5213 , This G5124 is G2076 offered in sacrifice unto idols G1494 , eat G2068 not G3361 for his sake G1223 G1565 that showed G3377 it, and G2532 for conscience G4893 sake: for G1063 the G3588 earth G1093 is the G3588 Lord G2962 's, and G2532 the G3588 fullness G4138 thereof G848 :
|
|
29. But I say conscience, not that of himself, but that of the other. For why is my freedom judged by another's conscience?
|
29. G1161 Conscience G4893 , I say G3004 , not G3780 thine own G1438 , but G235 of G3588 the G3588 other G2087 : for G1063 why G2444 is my G3450 liberty G1657 judged G2919 of G5259 another G243 man's conscience G4893 ?
|
|
30. But if I partake by grace, why am I evil spoken of because of that for which I give thanks?
|
30. For G1161 if G1487 I G1473 by grace G5485 be a partaker G3348 , why G5101 am I evil spoken of G987 for G5228 that G3739 for which I G1473 give thanks G2168 ?
|
|
31. Then whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all things to the glory of God.
|
31. Whether G1535 therefore G3767 ye eat G2068 , or G1535 drink G4095 , or G1535 whatsoever G5100 ye do G4160 , do G4160 all G3956 to the G1519 glory G1391 of God G2316 .
|
|
32. Be without offense both to Jews and Greeks, and to the assembly of God.
|
32. Give none offense G1096 G677 , neither G2532 to the Jews G2453 , nor G2532 to the Gentiles G1672 , nor G2532 to the G3588 church G1577 of God G2316 :
|
|
33. Even as I also please all in all things, not seeking my own advantage, but that of the many, that they may be saved.
|
33. Even as I G2504 G2531 please G700 all G3956 men in all G3956 things, not G3361 seeking G2212 mine own G1683 profit G4851 , but G235 the G3588 profit of many G4183 , that G2443 they may be saved G4982 .
