1 Corinthians 10
American Standard Version
10 For I would not, brethren, have you ignorant, that our fathers were all under the cloud, and all passed through the sea; 2 and were all baptized [a]unto Moses in the cloud and in the sea; 3 and did all eat the same spiritual food; 4 and did all drink the same spiritual drink: for they drank of a spiritual rock that followed them: and the rock was [b]Christ. 5 Howbeit with most of them God was not well pleased: for they were overthrown in the wilderness. 6 Now [c]these things were our examples, to the intent we should not lust after evil things, as they also lusted. 7 Neither be ye idolaters, as were some of them; as it is written, [d]The people sat down to eat and drink, and rose up to play. 8 Neither let us commit fornication, as some of them committed, and fell in one day three and twenty thousand. 9 Neither let us make trial of the [e]Lord, as some of them made trial, and perished by the serpents. 10 Neither murmur ye, as some of them murmured, and perished by the destroyer. 11 Now these things happened unto them [f]by way of example; and they were written for our admonition, upon whom the ends of the ages are come. 12 Wherefore let him that thinketh he standeth take heed lest he fall. 13 There hath no temptation taken you but such as man can bear: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation make also the way of escape, that ye may be able to endure it.
14 Wherefore, my beloved, flee from idolatry. 15 I speak as to wise men; judge ye what I say. 16 The cup of blessing which we bless, is it not a [g]communion of the blood of Christ? The [h]bread which we break, is it not a [i]communion of the body of Christ? 17 [j]seeing that we, who are many, are one [k]bread, one body: for we all partake [l]of the one [m]bread. 18 Behold Israel after the flesh: have not they that eat the sacrifices communion with the altar? 19 What say I then? that a thing sacrificed to idols is anything, or that an idol is anything? 20 But I say, that the things which the Gentiles sacrifice, they sacrifice to demons, and not to God: and I would not that ye should have communion with demons. 21 Ye cannot drink the cup of the Lord, and the cup of demons: ye cannot partake of the table of the Lord, and of the table of demons. 22 Or do we provoke the Lord to jealousy? are we stronger than he?
23 All things are lawful; but not all things are expedient. All things are lawful; but not all things [n]edify. 24 Let no man seek his own, but each [o]his neighbor’s good. 25 Whatsoever is sold in the shambles, eat, asking no question for conscience’ sake; 26 for the earth is the Lord’s, and the fulness thereof. 27 If one of them that believe not biddeth you to a feast, and ye are disposed to go; whatsoever is set before you, eat, asking no question for conscience’ sake. 28 But if any man say unto you, This hath been offered in sacrifice, eat not, for his sake that showed it, and for conscience’ sake: 29 conscience, I say, not thine own, but the other’s; for why is my liberty judged by another conscience? 30 [p]If I partake with thankfulness, why am I evil spoken of for that for which I give thanks? 31 Whether therefore ye eat, or drink, or whatsoever ye do, do all to the glory of God. 32 Give no occasion of stumbling, either to Jews, or to Greeks, or to the church of God: 33 even as I also please all men in all things, not seeking mine own profit, but the profit of the many, that they may be saved.

10 For gar I do not ou want thelō you hymeis to be unaware agnoeō, brothers adelphos, that hoti · ho our hēmeis fathers patēr were eimi all pas under hypo the ho cloud nephelē and kai all pas passed dierchomai through dia the ho sea thalassa, 2 and kai all pas were baptized baptizō into eis · ho Moses Mōysēs in en the ho cloud nephelē and kai in en the ho sea thalassa, 3 and kai all pas ate esthiō the ho same autos spiritual pneumatikos food brōma, 4 and kai all pas drank pinō the ho same autos spiritual pneumatikos drink poma; for gar they used to drink pinō from ek the spiritual pneumatikos rock petra that followed akoloutheō them, and de that ho rock petra was eimi · ho Christ Christos. 5 But alla with en most polys of them autos God theos was not ou · ho pleased eudokeō, · ho for gar their corpses were scattered katastrōnnymi over en the ho desert erēmos.
6 Now de these houtos things took place ginomai as examples typos for us hēmeis, so eis that we hēmeis would eimi not mē crave epithumētēs evil kakos things , even as kathōs they kakeinos did epithumeō. 7 So do ginomai not mēde become ginomai idolaters eidōlolatrēs, as kathōs some tis of them autos were. As hōsper it is written graphō, “ The ho people laos sat kathizō down to eat esthiō and kai drink pinō and kai rose up anistēmi to play paizō.” 8 We must not mēde indulge in sexual immorality porneuō, as kathōs some tis of them autos did porneuō, and kai twenty-three eikosi thousand chilias fell piptō in a single heis day hēmera. 9 And let us not mēde put Christ Christos to the test ekpeirazō, · ho as kathōs some tis of them autos did peirazō, and kai were destroyed apollymi by hypo · ho serpents ophis. 10 And do not mēde grumble gongyzō, as kathaper some tis of them autos did gongyzō, and kai were killed apollymi by hypo the ho destroyer olothreutēs. 11 Now de these houtos events happened symbainō to them ekeinos as examples typikōs, but de were written graphō down as warnings nouthesia for pros us hēmeis, on eis whom hos the ho end telos of the ho ages aiōn has come katantaō. 12 So hōste let the ho one who thinks dokeō he stands histēmi watch blepō out lest mē he fall piptō. 13 No ou trial peirasmos has overtaken lambanō you hymeis that is not ei distinctively human anthrōpinos; and de God theos is faithful pistos; · ho he hos will not ou let eaō you hymeis be tested peirazō beyond hyper what hos you can dynamai bear , but alla with syn the ho trial peirasmos will also kai provide poieō the ho way through ekbasis, so that ho you will be able dynamai to endure hypopherō it.
14 Therefore dioper, my egō dear friends agapētos, flee pheugō from apo the ho worship of idols eidōlolatria. 15 I speak legō as hōs to sensible people phronimos; judge krinō for yourselves hymeis what hos I am about to say phēmi. 16 The ho cup potērion of ho blessing eulogia that hos we bless eulogeō, is it eimi not ouchi a sharing koinōnia in the ho blood haima of ho Christ Christos? The ho bread artos that hos we break klaō, is it eimi not ouchi a sharing koinōnia in the ho body sōma of ho Christ Christos? 17 Because hoti there is one heis loaf artos, we eimi who ho are many polys are eimi one heis body sōma, · ho for gar we metechō all pas partake metechō of ek the ho one heis loaf artos. 18 Consider blepō · ho Israel Israēl according kata to the flesh sarx: are eimi not ou those ho who eat esthiō the ho sacrifices thusia sharers koinōnos in the ho altar thusiastērion? 19 So oun what tis am I implying phēmi? That hoti food offered to idols eidōlothutos is eimi anything tis, or ē that hoti an idol eidōlon is eimi anything tis? 20 No alla, what I am implying is that hoti the things that hos people sacrifice thuō, they sacrifice thuō to demons daimonion and kai not ou to God theos; and de I do not ou want thelō you hymeis to be ginomai sharers koinōnos with ho demons daimonion. 21 You cannot ou drink pinō the cup potērion of the Lord kyrios and kai the cup potērion of demons daimonion; you cannot ou partake metechō of the table trapeza of the Lord kyrios and kai the table trapeza of demons daimonion. 22 Or ē are we trying to provoke parazēloō the ho Lord kyrios to jealousy ? Are we eimi stronger ischuros than he autos?
23 “ All pas things are permissible,” but alla not ou all pas things are helpful sympherō. “ All pas things are permissible,” but alla not ou all pas things build up oikodomeō. 24 Let zēteō no one mēdeis seek zēteō · ho his heautou own advantage, but alla that ho of the ho other heteros. 25 Eat esthiō whatever pas · ho is sold pōleō in en the marketplace makellon, asking no mēdeis question anakrinō based dia on · ho conscience syneidēsis, 26 for gar the ho earth gē and kai its autos fullness plērōma belong to the ho Lord kyrios. · ho
27 If ei one tis of the ho unbelievers apistos invites kaleō you hymeis to a meal and kai you decide thelō to go poreuō, eat esthiō whatever pas · ho is set before paratithēmi you hymeis, asking no mēdeis question anakrinō based dia on · ho conscience syneidēsis. 28 However de, if ean someone tis should say legō to you hymeis, “ This houtos has been eimi offered hierothutos in sacrifice ,” then do not mē eat esthiō it, for the sake dia of the one ekeinos who ho told mēnyō you, and kai for the sake of · ho conscience syneidēsis— 29 I mean legō the ho conscience syneidēsis · de of the ho other person heteros, not ouchi · ho your own heautou. Why hinati then gar should · ho my egō liberty eleutheria be determined krinō by hypo the conscience syneidēsis of another allos? 30 If ei I egō partake metechō with thankfulness charis, why tis am I blamed blasphēmeō because of that for hyper which hos I egō give thanks eucharisteō?
31 So oun, whether eite you eat esthiō or eite drink pinō, or eite whatever tis you do poieō, do poieō everything pas for eis the glory doxa of God theos. 32 Do ginomai not be ginomai a stumbling block aproskopos to either kai Jews Ioudaios or kai Greeks Hellēn, or kai to the ho church ekklēsia of ho God theos; 33 even as kathōs I kagō try to please areskō everyone pas in everything pas I do, not mē seeking zēteō · ho my emautou own advantage symphoros but alla that ho of the ho many polys, so that hina they may be saved sōzō.
