1 Corinthians 10


1 Cor 10:1 For I do not want you to be unaware, brethren, that our fathers were all under the cloud and all passed through the sea;
1 Cor 10:2 and all were baptized into Moses in the cloud and in the sea;
1 Cor 10:3 and all ate the same spiritual food;
1 Cor 10:4 and all drank the same spiritual drink, for they were drinking from a spiritual rock which followed them; and the rock was Christ.
1 Cor 10:5 Nevertheless, with most of them God was not well-pleased; for they were laid low in the wilderness.
1 Cor 10:6 Now these things happened as examples for us, so that we would not crave evil things as they also craved.
1 Cor 10:7 Do not be idolaters, as some of them were; as it is written, "THE PEOPLE SAT DOWN TO EAT AND DRINK, AND STOOD UP TO PLAY."
1 Cor 10:8 Nor let us act immorally, as some of them did, and twenty-three thousand fell in one day.
1 Cor 10:9 Nor let us try the Lord, as some of them did, and were destroyed by the serpents.
1 Cor 10:10 Nor grumble, as some of them did, and were destroyed by the destroyer.
1 Cor 10:11 Now these things happened to them as an example, and they were written for our instruction, upon whom the ends of the ages have come.
1 Cor 10:12 Therefore let him who thinks he stands take heed that he does not fall.
1 Cor 10:13 No temptation has overtaken you but such as is common to man; and God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you are able, but with the temptation will provide the way of escape also, so that you will be able to endure it.
1 Cor 10:14 Therefore, my beloved, flee from idolatry.
1 Cor 10:15 I speak as to wise men; you judge what I say.
1 Cor 10:16 Is not the cup of blessing which we bless a sharing in the blood of Christ? Is not the bread which we break a sharing in the body of Christ?
1 Cor 10:17 Since there is one bread, we who are many are one body; for we all partake of the one bread.
1 Cor 10:18 Look at the nation Israel; are not those who eat the sacrifices sharers in the altar?
1 Cor 10:19 What do I mean then? That a thing sacrificed to idols is anything, or that an idol is anything?
1 Cor 10:20 No, but I say that the things which the Gentiles sacrifice, they sacrifice to demons and not to God; and I do not want you to become sharers in demons.
1 Cor 10:21 You cannot drink the cup of the Lord and the cup of demons; you cannot partake of the table of the Lord and the table of demons.
1 Cor 10:22 Or do we provoke the Lord to jealousy? We are not stronger than He, are we?
1 Cor 10:23 All things are lawful, but not all things are profitable. All things are lawful, but not all things edify.
1 Cor 10:24 Let no one seek his own good, but that of his neighbor.
1 Cor 10:25 Eat anything that is sold in the meat market without asking questions for conscience' sake;
1 Cor 10:26 for the earth is the Lord's, and all it contains.
1 Cor 10:27 If one of the unbelievers invites you and you want to go, eat anything that is set before you without asking questions for conscience' sake.
1 Cor 10:28 But if anyone says to you, "This is meat sacrificed to idols," do not eat it, for the sake of the one who informed you, and for conscience' sake;
1 Cor 10:29 I mean not your own conscience, but the other man's; for why is my freedom judged by another's conscience?
1 Cor 10:30 If I partake with thankfulness, why am I slandered concerning that for which I give thanks?
1 Cor 10:31 Whether, then, you eat or drink or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God.
1 Cor 10:32 Give no offense either to Jews or to Greeks or to the church of God;
1 Cor 10:33 just as I also please all men in all things, not seeking my own profit but the profit of the many, so that they may be saved.

1 Cor 10:1 Moreover, brethren, I would not that ye should be ignorant, how that all our fathers were under the cloud, and all passed through the sea; 1 Cor 10:1 For I do not want you to be unaware, brethren, that our fathers were all under the cloud and all passed through the sea; 1 Cor 10:1 οὐ θέλω γὰρ ὑμᾶς ἀγνοεῖν, ἀδελφοί, ὅτι οἱ πατέρες ἡμῶν πάντες ὑπὸ τὴν νεφέλην ἦσαν καὶ πάντες διὰ τῆς θαλάσσης διῆλθον,
1 Cor 10:2 And were all baptized unto Moses in the cloud and in the sea; 1 Cor 10:2 and all were baptized into Moses in the cloud and in the sea; 1 Cor 10:2 καὶ πάντες εἰς τὸν μωϊσῆν ἐβαπτίσθησαν ἐν τῇ νεφέλῃ καὶ ἐν τῇ θαλάσσῃ,
1 Cor 10:3 And did all eat the same spiritual meat; 1 Cor 10:3 and all ate the same spiritual food; 1 Cor 10:3 καὶ πάντες τὸ αὐτὸ πνευματικὸν βρῶμα ἔφαγον,
1 Cor 10 4 And did all drink the same spiritual drink: for they drank of that spiritual Rock that followed them and that Rock was Christ. 1 Cor 10:4 and all drank the same spiritual drink, for they were drinking from a spiritual rock which followed them; and the rock was Christ. 1 Cor 10:4 καὶ πάντες τὸ αὐτὸ πνευματικὸν ἔπιον πόμα· ἔπινον γὰρ ἐκ πνευματικῆς ἀκολουθούσης πέτρας· ἡ πέτρα δὲ ἦν ὁ χριστός.
1 Cor 10:5 But with many of them God was not well pleased: for they were overthrown in the wilderness. 1 Cor 10:5 Nevertheless, with most of them God was not well-pleased; for they were laid low in the wilderness. 1 Cor 10:5 ἀλλ᾽ οὐκ ἐν τοῖς πλείοσιν αὐτῶν εὐδόκησεν ὁ θεός, κατεστρώθησαν γὰρ ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ.
1 Cor 10:6 Now these things were our examples, to the intent we should not lust after evil things, as they also lusted. 1 Cor 10:6 Now these things happened as examples for us, so that we would not crave evil things as they also craved. 1 Cor 10:6 ταῦτα δὲ τύποι ἡμῶν ἐγενήθησαν, εἰς τὸ μὴ εἶναι ἡμᾶς ἐπιθυμητὰς κακῶν, καθὼς κἀκεῖνοι ἐπεθύμησαν.
1 Cor 10:7 Neither be ye idolaters, as were some of them; as it is written, The people sat down to eat and drink, and rose up to play. 1 Cor 10:7 Do not be idolaters, as some of them were; as it is written, "THE PEOPLE SAT DOWN TO EAT AND DRINK, AND STOOD UP TO PLAY." 1 Cor 10:7 μηδὲ εἰδωλολάτραι γίνεσθε, καθώς τινες αὐτῶν· ὥσπερ γέγραπται, ἐκάθισεν ὁ λαὸς φαγεῖν καὶ πεῖν, καὶ ἀνέστησαν παίζειν.
1 Cor 10:8 Neither let us commit fornication, as some of them committed, and fell in one day three and twenty thousand. 1 Cor 10:8 Nor let us act immorally, as some of them did, and twenty-three thousand fell in one day. 1 Cor 10:8 μηδὲ πορνεύωμεν, καθώς τινες αὐτῶν ἐπόρνευσαν, καὶ ἔπεσαν μιᾷ ἡμέρᾳ εἴκοσι τρεῖς χιλιάδες.
1 Cor 10:9 Neither let us tempt Christ, as some of them also tempted, and were destroyed of serpents. 1 Cor 10:9 Nor let us try the Lord, as some of them did, and were destroyed by the serpents. 1 Cor 10:9 μηδὲ ἐκπειράζωμεν τὸν χριστόν, καθώς τινες αὐτῶν ἐπείρασαν, καὶ ὑπὸ τῶν ὄφεων ἀπώλλυντο.
1 Cor 10:10 Neither murmur ye, as some of them also murmured, and were destroyed of the destroyer. 1 Cor 10:10 Nor grumble, as some of them did, and were destroyed by the destroyer. 1 Cor 10:10 μηδὲ γογγύζετε, καθάπερ τινὲς αὐτῶν ἐγόγγυσαν, καὶ ἀπώλοντο ὑπὸ τοῦ ὀλοθρευτοῦ.
1 Cor 10:11 Now all these things happened unto them for ensamples: and they are written for our admonition, upon whom the ends of the world are come. 1 Cor 10:11 Now these things happened to them as an example, and they were written for our instruction, upon whom the ends of the ages have come. 1 Cor 10:11 ταῦτα δὲ τυπικῶς συνέβαινεν ἐκείνοις, ἐγράφη δὲ πρὸς νουθεσίαν ἡμῶν, εἰς οὓς τὰ τέλη τῶν αἰώνων κατήντηκεν.
1 Cor 10:12 Wherefore let him that thinketh he standeth take heed lest he fall. 1 Cor 10:12 Therefore let him who thinks he stands take heed that he does not fall. 1 Cor 10:12 ὥστε ὁ δοκῶν ἑστάναι βλεπέτω μὴ πέσῃ.
1 Cor 10:13 There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it. 1 Cor 10:13 No temptation has overtaken you but such as is common to man; and God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you are able, but with the temptation will provide the way of escape also, so that you will be able to endure it. 1 Cor 10:13 πειρασμὸς ὑμᾶς οὐκ εἴληφεν εἰ μὴ ἀνθρώπινος· πιστὸς δὲ ὁ θεός, ὃς οὐκ ἐάσει ὑμᾶς πειρασθῆναι ὑπὲρ ὃ δύνασθε, ἀλλὰ ποιήσει σὺν τῶ πειρασμῶ καὶ τὴν ἔκβασιν τοῦ δύνασθαι ὑπενεγκεῖν.
1 Cor 10:14 Wherefore, my dearly beloved, flee from idolatry. 1 Cor 10:14 Therefore, my beloved, flee from idolatry. 1 Cor 10:14 διόπερ, ἀγαπητοί μου, φεύγετε ἀπὸ τῆς εἰδωλολατρίας.
1 Cor 10:15 I speak as to wise men; judge ye what I say. 1 Cor 10:15 I speak as to wise men; you judge what I say. 1 Cor 10:15 ὡς φρονίμοις λέγω· κρίνατε ὑμεῖς ὅ φημι.
1 Cor 10:16 The cup of blessing which we bless, is it not the communion of the blood of Christ? The bread which we break, is it not the communion of the body of Christ? 1 Cor 10:16 Is not the cup of blessing which we bless a sharing in the blood of Christ? Is not the bread which we break a sharing in the body of Christ? 1 Cor 10:16 τὸ ποτήριον τῆς εὐλογίας ὃ εὐλογοῦμεν, οὐχὶ κοινωνία ἐστὶν τοῦ αἵματος τοῦ χριστοῦ; τὸν ἄρτον ὃν κλῶμεν, οὐχὶ κοινωνία τοῦ σώματος τοῦ χριστοῦ ἐστιν;
1 Cor 10:17 For we being many are one bread, and one body: for we are all partakers of that one bread. 1 Cor 10:17 Since there is one bread, we who are many are one body; for we all partake of the one bread. 1 Cor 10:17 ὅτι εἷς ἄρτος, ἓν σῶμα οἱ πολλοί ἐσμεν, οἱ γὰρ πάντες ἐκ τοῦ ἑνὸς ἄρτου μετέχομεν.
1 Cor 10:18 Behold Israel after the flesh: are not they which eat of the sacrifices partakers of the altar? 1 Cor 10:18 Look at the nation Israel; are not those who eat the sacrifices sharers in the altar? 1 Cor 10:18 βλέπετε τὸν ἰσραὴλ κατὰ σάρκα· οὐχ οἱ ἐσθίοντες τὰς θυσίας κοινωνοὶ τοῦ θυσιαστηρίου εἰσίν;
1 Cor 10:19 What say I then? that the idol is any thing, or that which is offered in sacrifice to idols is any thing? 1 Cor 10:19 What do I mean then? That a thing sacrificed to idols is anything, or that an idol is anything? 1 Cor 10:19 τί οὗν φημι; ὅτι εἰδωλόθυτόν τί ἐστιν; ἢ ὅτι εἴδωλόν τί ἐστιν;
1 Cor 10:20 But I say, that the things which the Gentiles sacrifice, they sacrifice to devils, and not to God: and I would not that ye should have fellowship with devils. 1 Cor 10:20 No, but I say that the things which the Gentiles sacrifice, they sacrifice to demons and not to God; and I do not want you to become sharers in demons. 1 Cor 10:20 ἀλλ᾽ ὅτι ἃ θύουσιν, δαιμονίοις καὶ οὐ θεῶ [θύουσιν], οὐ θέλω δὲ ὑμᾶς κοινωνοὺς τῶν δαιμονίων γίνεσθαι.
1 Cor 10:21 Ye cannot drink the cup of the Lord, and the cup of devils: ye cannot be partakers of the Lord's table, and of the table of devils. 1 Cor 10:21 You cannot drink the cup of the Lord and the cup of demons; you cannot partake of the table of the Lord and the table of demons. 1 Cor 10:21 οὐ δύνασθε ποτήριον κυρίου πίνειν καὶ ποτήριον δαιμονίων· οὐ δύνασθε τραπέζης κυρίου μετέχειν καὶ τραπέζης δαιμονίων.
1 Cor 10:22 Do we provoke the Lord to jealousy? are we stronger than he? 1 Cor 10:22 Or do we provoke the Lord to jealousy? We are not stronger than He, are we? 1 Cor 10:22 ἢ παραζηλοῦμεν τὸν κύριον; μὴ ἰσχυρότεροι αὐτοῦ ἐσμεν;
1 Cor 10:23 All things are lawful for me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me, but all things edify not. 1 Cor 10:23 All things are lawful, but not all things are profitable. All things are lawful, but not all things edify. 1 Cor 10:23 πάντα ἔξεστιν, ἀλλ᾽ οὐ πάντα συμφέρει. πάντα ἔξεστιν, ἀλλ᾽ οὐ πάντα οἰκοδομεῖ.
1 Cor 10:24 Let no man seek his own, but every man another's wealth. 1 Cor 10:24 Let no one seek his own good, but that of his neighbor. 1 Cor 10:24 μηδεὶς τὸ ἑαυτοῦ ζητείτω ἀλλὰ τὸ τοῦ ἑτέρου.
1 Cor 10:25 Whatsoever is sold in the shambles, that eat, asking no question for conscience sake: 1 Cor 10:25 Eat anything that is sold in the meat market without asking questions for conscience' sake; 1 Cor 10:25 πᾶν τὸ ἐν μακέλλῳ πωλούμενον ἐσθίετε μηδὲν ἀνακρίνοντες διὰ τὴν συνείδησιν,
1 Cor 10:26 For the earth is the Lord's, and the fulness thereof. 1 Cor 10:26 for the earth is the Lord's, and all it contains. 1 Cor 10:26 τοῦ κυρίου γὰρ ἡ γῆ καὶ τὸ πλήρωμα αὐτῆς.
1 Cor 10:27 If any of them that believe not bid you to a feast, and ye be disposed to go; whatsoever is set before you, eat, asking no question for conscience sake. 1 Cor 10:27 If one of the unbelievers invites you and you want to go, eat anything that is set before you without asking questions for conscience' sake. 1 Cor 10:27 εἴ τις καλεῖ ὑμᾶς τῶν ἀπίστων καὶ θέλετε πορεύεσθαι, πᾶν τὸ παρατιθέμενον ὑμῖν ἐσθίετε μηδὲν ἀνακρίνοντες διὰ τὴν συνείδησιν.
1 Cor 10 28 But if any man say unto you, This is offered in sacrifice unto idols, eat not for his sake that shewed it, and for conscience sake: for the earth is the Lord's, and the fulness thereof 1 Cor 10:28 But if anyone says to you, "This is meat sacrificed to idols," do not eat it, for the sake of the one who informed you, and for conscience' sake; 1 Cor 10:28 ἐὰν δέ τις ὑμῖν εἴπῃ, τοῦτο ἱερόθυτόν ἐστιν, μὴ ἐσθίετε δι᾽ ἐκεῖνον τὸν μηνύσαντα καὶ τὴν συνείδησιν _
1 Cor 10:29 Conscience, I say, not thine own, but of the other: for why is my liberty judged of another man's conscience? 1 Cor 10:29 I mean not your own conscience, but the other man's; for why is my freedom judged by another's conscience? 1 Cor 10:29 συνείδησιν δὲ λέγω οὐχὶ τὴν ἑαυτοῦ ἀλλὰ τὴν τοῦ ἑτέρου. ἱνατί γὰρ ἡ ἐλευθερία μου κρίνεται ὑπὸ ἄλλης συνειδήσεως;
1 Cor 10:30 For if I by grace be a partaker, why am I evil spoken of for that for which I give thanks? 1 Cor 10:30 If I partake with thankfulness, why am I slandered concerning that for which I give thanks? 1 Cor 10:30 εἰ ἐγὼ χάριτι μετέχω, τί βλασφημοῦμαι ὑπὲρ οὖ ἐγὼ εὐχαριστῶ;
1 Cor 10:31 Whether therefore ye eat, or drink, or whatsoever ye do, do all to the glory of God. 1 Cor 10:31 Whether, then, you eat or drink or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God. 1 Cor 10:31 εἴτε οὗν ἐσθίετε εἴτε πίνετε εἴτε τι ποιεῖτε, πάντα εἰς δόξαν θεοῦ ποιεῖτε.
1 Cor 10:32 Give none offence, neither to the Jews, nor to the Gentiles, nor to the church of God: 1 Cor 10:32 Give no offense either to Jews or to Greeks or to the church of God; 1 Cor 10:32 ἀπρόσκοποι καὶ ἰουδαίοις γίνεσθε καὶ ἕλλησιν καὶ τῇ ἐκκλησίᾳ τοῦ θεοῦ,
1 Cor 10:33 Even as I please all men in all things, not seeking mine own profit, but the profit of many, that they may be saved. 1 Cor 10:33 just as I also please all men in all things, not seeking my own profit but the profit of the many, so that they may be saved. 1 Cor 10:33 καθὼς κἀγὼ πάντα πᾶσιν ἀρέσκω, μὴ ζητῶν τὸ ἐμαυτοῦ σύμφορον ἀλλὰ τὸ τῶν πολλῶν, ἵνα σωθῶσιν.
