20 When you come together, it is not the Lord's supper that you eat. 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.

23 For (D)I received from the Lord what I also delivered to you, that (E)the Lord Jesus on the night when he was betrayed took bread, 24 and when he had given thanks, he broke it, and said, “This is my body, which is for[a] you. Do this in remembrance of me.”[b]

20 So then, when you come together, it is not the Lord’s Supper you eat, 21 for when you are eating, some of you go ahead with your own private suppers.(A) As a result, one person remains hungry and another gets drunk. 22 Don’t you have homes to eat and drink in? Or do you despise the church of God(B) by humiliating those who have nothing?(C) What shall I say to you? Shall I praise you?(D) Certainly not in this matter!

23 For I received from the Lord(E) what I also passed on to you:(F) The Lord Jesus, on the night he was betrayed, took bread, 24 and when he had given thanks, he broke it and said, “This is my body,(G) which is for you; do this in remembrance of me.”
