1 Corinthians 10:6-10
English Standard Version
6 Now these things took place as examples for us, that we might not desire evil as (A)they did. 7 (B)Do not be idolaters (C)as some of them were; as it is written, (D)“The people sat down to eat and drink and rose up to play.” 8 (E)We must not indulge in sexual immorality (F)as some of them did, and (G)twenty-three thousand fell in a single day. 9 We must not put Christ[a] to the test, (H)as some of them did and (I)were destroyed by serpents, 10 nor grumble, (J)as some of them did and (K)were destroyed by (L)the Destroyer.
