1 Corintios 10
La Biblia de las Américas
Ejemplos de la historia de Israel
10 Porque no quiero que ignoréis, hermanos(A), que nuestros padres todos estuvieron bajo la nube(B) y todos pasaron por el mar(C); 2 y en Moisés todos fueron bautizados[a](D) en la nube y en el mar; 3 y todos comieron el mismo alimento espiritual(E); 4 y todos bebieron la misma bebida espiritual, porque bebían de una roca espiritual(F) que los seguía; y la roca era Cristo[b]. 5 Sin embargo, Dios no se agradó de la mayor parte de ellos, pues quedaron tendidos en el desierto(G). 6 Estas cosas sucedieron como ejemplo para nosotros(H), a fin de que no codiciemos[c] lo malo, como ellos lo codiciaron(I). 7 No seáis, pues, idólatras(J), como fueron algunos de ellos, según está escrito: El pueblo se sentó a comer y a beber, y se levantó a jugar(K). 8 Ni forniquemos, como algunos de ellos fornicaron(L), y en un día cayeron veintitrés mil(M). 9 Ni provoquemos[d] al Señor[e], como algunos de ellos le provocaron[f](N), y fueron destruidos[g] por las serpientes. 10 Ni murmuréis, como algunos de ellos murmuraron(O), y fueron[h] destruidos(P) por el destructor(Q). 11 Estas cosas les sucedieron como ejemplo(R), y fueron escritas como enseñanza para nosotros(S), para quienes ha llegado el fin de los siglos(T). 12 Por tanto, el que cree que está firme, tenga cuidado, no sea que caiga(U). 13 No os ha sobrevenido ninguna tentación que no sea común a los hombres; y fiel es Dios(V), que no permitirá que vosotros seáis tentados más allá de lo que podéis soportar, sino que con la tentación proveerá también la vía de escape(W), a fin de que podáis resistirla.
14 Por tanto, amados(X) míos, huid de la idolatría(Y). 15 Os hablo como a sabios; juzgad vosotros lo que digo. 16 La copa de bendición que bendecimos, ¿no es la participación en la sangre de Cristo(Z)? El pan que partimos, ¿no es la participación en el cuerpo de Cristo(AA)? 17 Puesto que el pan es uno, nosotros, que somos muchos, somos un cuerpo(AB); pues todos participamos de aquel mismo pan. 18 Considerad al pueblo de Israel[i](AC): los que comen los sacrificios(AD), ¿no participan del altar? 19 ¿Qué quiero decir, entonces? ¿Que lo sacrificado a los ídolos es algo, o que un ídolo es algo(AE)? 20 No, sino que digo que lo que los gentiles sacrifican, lo sacrifican a los demonios y no a Dios(AF); no quiero que seáis partícipes con los demonios. 21 No podéis beber la copa del Señor y la copa de los demonios(AG); no podéis participar de la mesa del Señor y de la mesa de los demonios(AH). 22 ¿O provocaremos a celos al Señor(AI)? ¿Somos, acaso, más fuertes que Él(AJ)?
La libertad cristiana
23 Todo es lícito, pero no todo es de provecho(AK). Todo es lícito, pero no todo edifica(AL). 24 Nadie busque su propio bien, sino el de su prójimo[j](AM). 25 Comed de todo lo que se vende en la carnicería sin preguntar nada por motivos de conciencia(AN); 26 porque del Señor es la tierra y todo lo que en ella hay[k](AO). 27 Si algún incrédulo(AP) os invita y queréis ir, comed de todo lo que se os ponga delante(AQ) sin preguntar nada por motivos de conciencia. 28 Pero si alguien os dice: Esto ha sido sacrificado a los ídolos, no lo comáis, por causa del que os lo dijo, y por motivos de conciencia(AR); [l]porque del Señor es la tierra y todo lo que en ella hay[m]. 29 Quiero decir, no vuestra conciencia, sino la del otro; pues ¿por qué ha de ser juzgada mi libertad por la conciencia ajena(AS)? 30 Si participo con agradecimiento, ¿por qué he de ser censurado[n](AT) a causa de aquello por lo cual doy gracias(AU)? 31 Entonces, ya sea que comáis, que bebáis, o que hagáis cualquier otra cosa, hacedlo todo para la gloria de Dios(AV). 32 No seáis motivo de tropiezo(AW) ni a judíos, ni a griegos, ni a la iglesia de Dios(AX); 33 así como también yo procuro agradar a todos en todo(AY), no buscando mi propio beneficio(AZ), sino el de muchos, para que sean salvos(BA).

Warnings from Israel’s history
10 For I do not want you to be ignorant of the fact, brothers and sisters, that our ancestors were all under the cloud and that they all passed through the sea. 2 They were all baptised into Moses in the cloud and in the sea. 3 They all ate the same spiritual food 4 and drank the same spiritual drink; for they drank from the spiritual rock that accompanied them, and that rock was Christ. 5 Nevertheless, God was not pleased with most of them; their bodies were scattered in the wilderness.
6 Now these things occurred as examples to keep us from setting our hearts on evil things as they did. 7 Do not be idolaters, as some of them were; as it is written: ‘The people sat down to eat and drink and got up to indulge in revelry.’[a] 8 We should not commit sexual immorality, as some of them did – and in one day twenty-three thousand of them died. 9 We should not test Christ,[b] as some of them did – and were killed by snakes. 10 And do not grumble, as some of them did – and were killed by the destroying angel.
11 These things happened to them as examples and were written down as warnings for us, on whom the culmination of the ages has come. 12 So, if you think you are standing firm, be careful that you don’t fall! 13 No temptation[c] has overtaken you except what is common to mankind. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted[d] beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted,[e] he will also provide a way out so that you can endure it.
Idol feasts and the Lord’s Supper
14 Therefore, my dear friends, flee from idolatry. 15 I speak to sensible people; judge for yourselves what I say. 16 Is not the cup of thanksgiving for which we give thanks a participation in the blood of Christ? And is not the bread that we break a participation in the body of Christ? 17 Because there is one loaf, we, who are many, are one body, for we all share the one loaf.
18 Consider the people of Israel: do not those who eat the sacrifices participate in the altar? 19 Do I mean then that food sacrificed to an idol is anything, or that an idol is anything? 20 No, but the sacrifices of pagans are offered to demons, not to God, and I do not want you to be participants with demons. 21 You cannot drink the cup of the Lord and the cup of demons too; you cannot have a part in both the Lord’s table and the table of demons. 22 Are we trying to arouse the Lord’s jealousy? Are we stronger than he?
The believer’s freedom
23 ‘I have the right to do anything,’ you say – but not everything is beneficial. ‘I have the right to do anything’– but not everything is constructive. 24 No one should seek their own good, but the good of others.
25 Eat anything sold in the meat market without raising questions of conscience, 26 for, ‘The earth is the Lord’s, and everything in it.’[f]
27 If an unbeliever invites you to a meal and you want to go, eat whatever is put before you without raising questions of conscience. 28 But if someone says to you, ‘This has been offered in sacrifice,’ then do not eat it, both for the sake of the one who told you and for the sake of conscience. 29 I am referring to the other person’s conscience, not yours. For why is my freedom being judged by another’s conscience? 30 If I take part in the meal with thankfulness, why am I denounced because of something I thank God for?
31 So whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God. 32 Do not cause anyone to stumble, whether Jews, Greeks or the church of God – 33 even as I try to please everyone in every way. For I am not seeking my own good but the good of many, so that they may be saved.

King James Version
10 Moreover, brethren, I would not that ye should be ignorant, how that all our fathers were under the cloud, and all passed through the sea;
2 And were all baptized unto Moses in the cloud and in the sea;
3 And did all eat the same spiritual meat;
4 And did all drink the same spiritual drink: for they drank of that spiritual Rock that followed them: and that Rock was Christ.
5 But with many of them God was not well pleased: for they were overthrown in the wilderness.
6 Now 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, 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 tempt Christ, as some of them also tempted, and were destroyed of serpents.
10 Neither murmur ye, as some of them also murmured, and were destroyed of the destroyer.
11 Now all these things happened unto them for examples: and they are written for our admonition, upon whom the ends of the world 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 is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it.
14 Wherefore, my dearly 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 the communion of the blood of Christ? The bread which we break, is it not the communion of the body of Christ?
17 For we being many are one bread, and one body: for we are all partakers of that one bread.
18 Behold Israel after the flesh: are not they which eat of the sacrifices partakers of the altar?
19 What say I then? that the idol is any thing, or that which is offered in sacrifice to idols is any thing?
20 But I say, that the things which the Gentiles sacrifice, they sacrifice to devils, and not to God: and I would not that ye should have fellowship with devils.
21 Ye cannot drink the cup of the Lord, and the cup of devils: ye cannot be partakers of the Lord's table, and of the table of devils.
22 Do we provoke the Lord to jealousy? are we stronger than he?
23 All things are lawful for me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me, but all things edify not.
24 Let no man seek his own, but every man another's wealth.
25 Whatsoever is sold in the shambles, that eat, asking no question for conscience sake:
26 For the earth is the Lord's, and the fulness thereof.
27 If any of them that believe not bid you to a feast, and ye be disposed to go; whatsoever is set before you, eat, asking no question for conscience sake.
28 But if any man say unto you, this is offered in sacrifice unto idols, eat not for his sake that shewed it, and for conscience sake: for the earth is the Lord's, and the fulness thereof:
29 Conscience, I say, not thine own, but of the other: for why is my liberty judged of another man's conscience?
30 For if I by grace be a partaker, 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 none offence, neither to the Jews, nor to the Gentiles, nor to the church of God:
33 Even as I please all men in all things, not seeking mine own profit, but the profit of many, that they may be saved.
