1Moreover <1161>_, brethren <80>_, I would <2309> (5719) not <3756> that ye <5209> should be ignorant <50> (5721)_, how that <3754> all <3956> our <2257> fathers <3962> were <2258> (5713) under <5259> the cloud <3507>_, and <2532> all <3956> passed <1330> (5627) through <1223> the sea <2281>_;
2And <2532> were <907> (0) all <3956> baptized <907> (5668) unto <1519> Moses <3475> in <1722> the cloud <3507> and <2532> in <1722> the sea <2281>_;
3And <2532> did <5315> (0) all <3956> eat <5315> (5627) the same <846> spiritual <4152> meat <1033>_;
4And <2532> did <4095> (0) all <3956> drink <4095> (5627) the same <846> spiritual <4152> drink <4188>_: for <1063> they drank <4095> (5707) of <1537> that spiritual <4152> Rock <4073> that followed them <190> (5723)_: and <1161> that Rock <4073> was <2258> (5713) Christ <5547>_. {followed...: or, went with them}
5But <235> with <1722> many <4119> of them <846> God <2316> was <2106> (0) not <3756> well pleased <2106> (5656)_: for <1063> they were overthrown <2693> (5681) in <1722> the wilderness <2048>_.
6Now <1161> these things <5023> were <1096> (5675) our <2257> examples <5179>_, to the intent <1519> we <2248> should <1511> (5750) not <3361> lust after evil <2556> things <1938>_, as <2531> they also <2548> lusted <1937> (5656)_. {our...: Gr. our figures}
7Neither <3366> be ye <1096> (5737) idolaters <1496>_, as <2531> [were] some <5100> of them <846>_; as <5613> it is written <1125> (5769)_, The people <2992> sat down <2523> (5656) to eat <5315> (5629) and <2532> drink <4095> (5629)_, and <2532> rose up <450> (5656) to play <3815> (5721)_.
8Neither <3366> let us commit fornication <4203> (5725)_, as <2531> some <5100> of them <846> committed <4203> (5656)_, and <2532> fell <4098> (5627) in <1722> one <3391> day <2250> three <5140> and twenty <1501> thousand <5505>_.
9Neither <3366> let us tempt <1598> (5725) Christ <5547>_, as <2531> some <5100> of them <846> also <2532> tempted <3985> (5656)_, and <2532> were destroyed <622> (5639) of <5259> serpents <3789>_.
10Neither <3366> murmur ye <1111> (5720)_, as <2531> some <5100> of them <846> also <2532> murmured <1111> (5656)_, and <2532> were destroyed <622> (5639) of <5259> the destroyer <3644>_.
11Now <1161> all <3956> these things <5023> happened <4819> (5707) unto them <1565> for ensamples <5179>_: and <1161> they are written <1125> (5648) for <4314> our <2257> admonition <3559>_, upon <1519> whom <3739> the ends <5056> of the world <165> are come <2658> (5656)_. {ensamples: or, types}
12Wherefore <5620> let <991> (0) him that thinketh <1380> (5723) he standeth <2476> (5760) take heed <991> (5720) lest <3361> he fall <4098> (5632)_.
13There hath <2983> (0) no <3756> temptation <3986> taken <2983> (5758) you <5209> but <1508> such as is common to man <442>_: but <1161> God <2316> [is] faithful <4103>_, who <3739> will <1439> (0) not <3756> suffer <1439> (5692) you <5209> to be tempted <3985> (5683) above <5228> that <3739> ye are able <1410> (5736)_; but <235> will <4160> (0) with <4862> the temptation <3986> also <2532> make <4160> (5692) a way to escape <1545>_, that ye <5209> may be able <1410> (5738) to bear <5297> (5629) [it]. {common...: or, moderate}
14Wherefore <1355>_, my <3450> dearly beloved <27>_, flee <5343> (5720) from <575> idolatry <1495>_.
15I speak <3004> (5719) as <5613> to wise men <5429>_; judge <2919> (5657) ye <5210> what <3739> I say <5346> (5748)_.
16The cup <4221> of blessing <2129> which <3739> we bless <2127> (5719)_, is it <2076> (5748) not <3780> the communion <2842> of the blood <129> of Christ <5547>_? The bread <740> which <3739> we break <2806> (5719)_, is it <2076> (5748) not <3780> the communion <2842> of the body <4983> of Christ <5547>_?
17For <3754> we <2070> (0) [being] many <4183> are <2070> (5748) one <1520> bread <740>_, [and] one <1520> body <4983>_: for <1063> we are <3348> (0) all <3956> partakers <3348> (5719) of <1537> that one <1520> bread <740>_.
18Behold <991> (5720) Israel <2474> after <2596> the flesh <4561>_: are <1526> (0) not <3780> they <1526> (5748) which eat <2068> (5723) of the sacrifices <2378> partakers <2844> of the altar <2379>_?
19What <5101> say I <5346> (5748) then <3767>_? that <3754> the idol <1497> is <2076> (5748) any thing <5100>_, or <2228> that <3754> which is offered in sacrifice to idols <1494> is <2076> (5748) any thing <5100>_?
20But <235> I [say], that <3754> the things which <3739> the Gentiles <1484> sacrifice <2380> (5719)_, they sacrifice <2380> (5719) to devils <1140>_, and <2532> not <3756> to God <2316>_: and <1161> I would <2309> (5719) not <3756> that ye <5209> should have <1096> (5738) fellowship <2844> with devils <1140>_.
21Ye cannot <3756> <1410> (5736) drink <4095> (5721) the cup <4221> of the Lord <2962>_, and <2532> the cup <4221> of devils <1140>_: ye cannot <3756> <1410> (5736) be partakers <3348> (5721) of the Lord's <2962> table <5132>_, and <2532> of the table <5132> of devils <1140>_.
22Do we provoke <2228> <3863> (0) the Lord <2962> to jealousy <3863> (5719)_? are we <2070> (5748) stronger than <3361> <2478> he <846>_?
23All things <3956> are lawful <1832> (5748) for me <3427>_, but <235> all things <3956> are <4851> (0) not <3756> expedient <4851> (5719)_: all things <3956> are lawful <1832> (5748) for me <3427>_, but <235> all things <3956> edify <3618> (5719) not <3756>_. {expedient: or, profitable}
24Let <2212> (0) no man <3367> seek <2212> (5720) his own <1438>_, but <235> every man <1538> another's <2087> [wealth].
25Whatsoever <3956> is sold <4453> (5746) in <1722> the shambles <3111>_, [that] eat <2068> (5720)_, asking <350> (0) no <3367> question <350> (5723) for <1223> (0) conscience <4893> sake <1223>_:
26For <1063> the earth <1093> [is] the Lord's <2962>_, and <2532> the fulness <4138> thereof <846>_.
27<1161> If any <1536> of them that believe not <571> bid <2564> (5719) you <5209> [to a feast], and <2532> ye be disposed <2309> (5719) to go <4198> (5738)_; whatsoever <3956> is set before <3908> (5746) you <5213>_, eat <2068> (5720)_, asking <350> (0) no <3367> question <350> (5723) for <1223> (0) conscience <4893> sake <1223>_.
28But <1161> if <1437> any man <5100> say <2036> (5632) unto you <5213>_, This <5124> is <2076> (5748) offered in sacrifice unto idols <1494>_, eat <2068> (5720) not <3361> for <1223> his sake <1565> that shewed it <3377> (5660)_, and <2532> for conscience sake <4893>_: for <1063> the earth <1093> [is] the Lord's <2962>_, and <2532> the fulness <4138> thereof <846>_:
29Conscience <4893>_, <1161> I say <3004> (5719)_, not <3780> thine own <1438>_, but <235> of the other <2087>_: for <1063> why <2444> is <2919> (0) my <3450> liberty <1657> judged <2919> (5743) of <5259> another <243> [man's] conscience <4893>_?
30For <1161> if <1487> I <1473> by grace <5485> be a partaker <3348> (5719)_, why <5101> am I evil spoken of <987> (5743) for that <5228> for which <3739> I <1473> give thanks <2168> (5719)_? {grace: or, thanksgiving}
31Whether <1535> therefore <3767> ye eat <2068> (5719)_, or <1535> drink <4095> (5719)_, or <1535> whatsoever <5100> ye do <4160> (5719)_, do <4160> (5720) all <3956> to <1519> the glory <1391> of God <2316>_.
32Give <1096> (5737) none offence <677>_, neither <2532> to the Jews <2453>_, nor <2532> to the Gentiles <1672>_, nor <2532> to the church <1577> of God <2316>_: {Gentiles: Gr. Greeks}
33Even as <2531> I <2504> please <700> (5719) all <3956> [men] in all <3956> [things], not <3361> seeking <2212> (5723) mine own <1683> profit <4851> (5723)_, but <235> the [profit <3588>_] of many <4183>_, that <2443> they may be saved <4982> (5686)_.
