1 Corinthians 10:6-10
Legacy Standard Bible
6 Now these things happened as (A)examples for us, so that we would not crave evil things as (B)they also craved.
7 Do not be (C)idolaters, as some of them were. As it is written, “(D)The people sat down to eat and drink, and stood up to (E)play.” 8 Nor let us act in sexual immorality, as (F)some of them [a]did, and (G)twenty-three thousand fell in one day. 9 Nor let us put Christ to the test, as (H)some of them [b]did, and were destroyed by the serpents. 10 Nor (I)grumble, as some of them [c]did, and (J)were destroyed by the (K)destroyer.

1 Corinthians 10:6-10
International Standard Version
6 Now their experiences serve as examples for us so that we won’t set our hearts on evil as they did. 7 Let’s stop being idolaters, as some of them were. As it is written, “The people sat down to eat and drink and got up to play.”[a] 8 Let’s stop sinning sexually, as some of them were doing, and on a single day 23,000 fell dead. 9 Let’s stop putting the Lord[b] to the test, as some of them were doing, and were destroyed by snakes. 10 You must stop complaining, as some of them were doing, and were annihilated by the destroyer.
