²¹ For in eating, each one goes ahead with his own meal. One goes hungry, ^(A)another gets drunk. ²² What! Do you not have houses to eat and drink in? Or do you despise ^(B)the church of God and ^(C)humiliate those who have nothing? What shall I say to you? Shall I commend you in this? No, I will not.
