1 Corinthians 10:14-22
Legacy Standard Bible
14 Therefore, my (A)beloved, flee from (B)idolatry. 15 I speak as to prudent people. You judge what I say. 16 Is not the (C)cup of blessing which we bless a sharing in the blood of Christ? Is not the [a](D)bread which we break a sharing in the body of Christ? 17 Since there is one [b]bread, we (E)who are many are one body, for we all partake of the one [c]bread. 18 Look at [d]the nation (F)Israel. Are not those who (G)eat the sacrifices sharers in the altar? 19 What do I mean then? That a thing sacrificed to idols is anything, or (H)that an idol is anything? 20 No, but I say that the things which the Gentiles sacrifice, they (I)sacrifice to demons and not to God. And I do not want you to become sharers in demons. 21 (J)You cannot drink the cup of the Lord and the cup of demons. You cannot partake of the table of the Lord and (K)the table of demons. 22 Or do we (L)provoke the [e]Lord to jealousy? Are we (M)stronger than He?

American Standard Version
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 [a]communion of the blood of Christ? The [b]bread which we break, is it not a [c]communion of the body of Christ? 17 [d]seeing that we, who are many, are one [e]bread, one body: for we all partake [f]of the one [g]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?
