^16 (A)The cup of blessing that we bless, is it not a participation in the blood of Christ? ^(B)The bread that we break, is it not a participation in the body of Christ?

¹⁷ Because there is one bread, we who are many are ^(A)one body, for we all partake of the one bread.

¹⁸ For, in the first place, when you come together as a church, ^(A)I hear that there are divisions among you. And I believe it in part,^[a]

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

^27 (A)Whoever, therefore, eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord ^(B)in an unworthy manner will be guilty concerning ^(C)the body and blood of the Lord. ^28 (D)Let a person examine himself, then, and so eat of the bread and drink of the cup. ²⁹ For anyone who eats and drinks without discerning the body eats and drinks judgment on himself. ³⁰ That is why many of you are weak and ill, and some ^(E)have died.^{[a] 31 (F)}But if we judged^[b] ourselves truly, we would not be judged. ³² But when we are judged by the Lord, ^(G)we are disciplined^[c] so that we may not be ^(H)condemned along with the world.

³³ So then, my brothers,^[d] when you come together to eat, wait for^[e] one another—
