1 Corinthians 11:23-34

21st Century King James Version

²³ For I have received from the Lord that which also I delivered unto you: that the Lord Jesus, the same night in which He was betrayed, took bread;

²⁴ and when He had given thanks, He broke it and said, “Take, eat; this is My body which is broken for you: this do in remembrance of Me.”

²⁵ In the same manner also He took the cup when He had supped, saying, “This cup is the new testament in My blood: this do ye, as oft as ye drink it, in remembrance of Me.”

²⁶ For as often as ye eat this bread and drink this cup, ye do show the Lord’s death until He come.

²⁷ Therefore whosoever shall eat this bread and drink this cup of the Lord unworthily, shall be guilty of the body and blood of the Lord.

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

²⁹ For he that eateth and drinketh unworthily, eateth and drinketh damnation to himself, not discerning the Lord’s body.

³⁰ For this cause many are weak and sickly among you, and many sleep.

³¹ For if we would judge ourselves, we should not be judged.

³² But when we are judged, we are chastened by the Lord, that we should not be condemned with the world.

³³ Therefore, my brethren, when ye come together to eat, tarry one for another.

³⁴ And if any man hunger, let him eat at home, that ye come not together unto condemnation. And the rest will I set in order when I come.
