10:1 For
I
want
you
to
know,
brothers,
that
our
fathers
were
all
under
the
cloud,
and
all
passed
through
the
sea,
10:2 and
all
were
baptized
into
Moses
in
the
cloud
and
in
the
sea,
10:3 and
all
ate
the
same
spiritual
food,
10:4 and
all
drank
the
same
spiritual
drink.
For
they
drank
from
the
spiritual
Rock
that
followed
them,
and
the
Rock
was
Christ.
10:5 Nevertheless,
with
most
of
them
God
was
not
pleased,
for
they
were
overthrown
in
the
wilderness.
10:6 Now
these
things
took
place
as
examples
for
us,
that
we
might
not
desire
evil
as
they
did.
10:7 Do
not
be
idolaters
as
some
of
them
were;
as
it
is
written,
"The
people
sat
down
to
eat
and
drink
and
rose
up
to
play."
10:8 We
must
not
indulge
in
sexual
immorality
as
some
of
them
did,
and
twenty-three
thousand
fell
in
a
single
day.
10:9 We
must
not
put
Christ
to
the
test,
as
some
of
them
did
and
were
destroyed
by
serpents,
10:10 nor
grumble,
as
some
of
them
did
and
were
destroyed
by
the
Destroyer.
10:11 Now
these
things
happened
to
them
as
an
example,
but
they
were
written
down
for
our
instruction,
on
whom
the
end
of
the
ages
has
come.
10:12 Therefore
let
anyone
who
thinks
that
he
stands
take
heed
lest
he
fall.
10:13 No
temptation
has
overtaken
you
that
is
not
common
to
man.
God
is
faithful,
and
he
will
not
let
you
be
tempted
beyond
your
ability,
but
with
the
temptation
he
will
also
provide
the
way
of
escape,
that
you
may
be
able
to
endure
it.
10:14 Therefore,
my
beloved,
flee
from
idolatry.
10:15 I
speak
as
to
sensible
people;
judge
for
yourselves
what
I
say.
10:16 The
cup
of
blessing
that
we
bless,
is
it
not
a
participation
in
the
blood
of
Christ
The
bread
that
we
break,
is
it
not
a
participation
in
the
body
of
Christ
10:17 Because
there
is
one
bread,
we
who
are
many
are
one
body,
for
we
all
partake
of
the
one
bread.
10:18 Consider
the
people
of
Israel:
are
not
those
who
eat
the
sacrifices
participants
in
the
altar
10:19 What
do
I
imply
then
That
food
offered
to
idols
is
anything,
or
that
an
idol
is
anything
10:20 No,
I
imply
that
what
pagans
sacrifice
they
offer
to
demons
and
not
to
God.
I
do
not
want
you
to
be
participants
with
demons.
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.
10:22 Shall
we
provoke
the
Lord
to
jealousy
Are
we
stronger
than
he
10:23 "All
things
are
lawful,"
but
not
all
things
are
helpful.
"All
things
are
lawful,"
but
not
all
things
build
up.
10:24 Let
no
one
seek
his
own
good,
but
the
good
of
his
neighbor.
10:25 Eat
whatever
is
sold
in
the
meat
market
without
raising
any
question
on
the
ground
of
conscience.
10:26 For
"the
earth
is
the
Lord's,
and
the
fullness
thereof."
10:27 If
one
of
the
unbelievers
invites
you
to
dinner
and
you
are
disposed
to
go,
eat
whatever
is
set
before
you
without
raising
any
question
on
the
ground
of
conscience.
10:28 But
if
someone
says
to
you,
"This
has
been
offered
in
sacrifice,"
then
do
not
eat
it,
for
the
sake
of
the
one
who
informed
you,
and
for
the
sake
of
conscience--
10:29 I
do
not
mean
your
conscience,
but
his.
For
why
should
my
liberty
be
determined
by
someone
else's
conscience
10:30 If
I
partake
with
thankfulness,
why
am
I
denounced
because
of
that
for
which
I
give
thanks
10:31 So,
whether
you
eat
or
drink,
or
whatever
you
do,
do
all
to
the
glory
of
God.
10:32 Give
no
offense
to
Jews
or
to
Greeks
or
to
the
church
of
God,
10:33 just
as
I
try
to
please
everyone
in
everything
I
do,
not
seeking
my
own
advantage,
but
that
of
many,
that
they
may
be
saved.
