So Don’t Partake of It In a Manner Unworthy of What He Did: Examine Yourselves
27 So then, whoever eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord unworthily[a] shall be guilty[b] of the body and the blood of the Lord. 28 But let a person examine himself, and in this manner let him eat of the bread and drink of the cup. 29 For the one eating and drinking while not rightly-judging the body[c] is eating and drinking judgment[d] on himself. 30 For this reason many among you are weak and sick, and many sleep. 31 But if we were rightly-judging ourselves, we would not be being[e] judged. 32 But while being judged, we are being disciplined[f] by the Lord in-order-that we might not be condemned with the world.
Partake of It Together With Proper Respect For One Another
33 So then, my brothers, while coming-together so as to eat, be waiting-for one another. 34 If one is hungry, let him eat at home, in-order-that you might not come-together for[g] judgment. And I will set-in-order the remaining things whenever I come.
