CHAP. X.
By the example of the Israelites
he shews that we are
not to build too much upon
favours received; but avoid
their sins; and fly
from the service of idols,
and from things offered to
devils.
1 For I would not have
you ignorant, brethren,
that our fathers were all under
the cloud, and all passed
through the sea:
2 And all note in Moses
were baptized, in the cloud,
and in the sea;
3 And did all eat the same
spiritual food:
4 And all drank the same
spiritual drink: (and they drank
of the spiritual rock that followed
them: and the rock was
Christ.)
5 But with the most of
them God was not well pleased:
for they were overthrown
in the desert.
6 Now these things were
done in a figure of us, that we
should not covet evil things,
as they also coveted.
7 Neither become ye idolaters,
as some of them: as
it is written: The people sat
down to eat and drink, and
rose up to play.
8 Neither let us commit
fornication, as some of them
committed fornication, and
there fell in one day three
and twenty thousand.
9 Neither let us tempt
Christ: as some of them
tempted, and perished by the
serpents.
10 Neither do you murmur:
as some of them murmured,
and were destroyed
by the destroyer.
11 Now all these things
happened to them in figure:
and they are written for our
correction, upon whom note
-- --
the ends of the world are come.
12 Wherefore let him that
thinketh himself to stand, take
heed lest he fall.
13 noteLet no temptation
take hold on you, but such
as is human. And God is
faithful, who will not suffer
you to be tempted above that
which you are able: but will
make also with temptation note
issue, that you may be able
to bear it.
14 Wherefore, my dearly
beloved, fly from the service
of idols.
15 I speak as to wise men:
judge ye yourselves what I say.
16 The chalice of benediction
note which we bless, is
it not the communion of the
blood of Christ? And the
bread which we break, is it
not the partaking of the body
of the Lord?
17 For we being many,
are note one bread, one body,
all that partake of one bread.
18 Behold Israel according
to the flesh: are not they, that
eat of the sacrifices, partakers
of the altar?
19 What then? Do I say,
that what is offered in sacrifice
to idols, is any thing?
Or, that the idol is any thing?
20 But the things which
the heathens sacrifice, they sacrifice
to devils, and not to
God. And I would not that
you should be made partakers
with devils.
21 You cannot drink the
chalice of the Lord, and the
chalice of devils: you cannot
be partakers of the table of
the Lord, and of the table of
devils.
22 Do we provoke the
Lord to jealousy? Are we
-- --
stronger than he? All things
are lawful for me, but all
things are not expedient.
23 All things are lawful
for me, but all things do not
edify.
24 Let no man seek his
own, but that which is for
the welfare of another.
25 Whatsoever is sold in
the shambles, eat: asking no
question for conscience sake.
26 The earth is the Lord's,
and the fulness thereof.
27 If any of them that
believe not, invite you, and
you be willing to go; eat of
any thing that is set before
you, asking no question for
conscience sake.
28 But if any man say:
This hath been sacrificed to
idols; do not eat of it for
his sake that told it, and for
conscience sake.
29 Conscience, I say, not
thy own, but the other's. For
why is my liberty judged by
another man's conscience?
30 If I partake with thanksgiving;
why am I evil spoken
of for that, for which I give
thanks?
31 Therefore whether you
eat or drink, or whatsoever
else you do; do all to the
glory of God.
32 Give no offence to the
Jews, nor to the gentiles, nor
to the church of God:
33 As I also please all
men in all things, not seeking
that which is profitable to
myself, but to many; that
they may be saved.
