WEB World English Bible (Classic, with Deuterocanon)

1 No quiero, hermanos que ignoren lo que le sucedió a nuestro pueblo siglos atrás, en el desierto. Todos estuvieron bajo la nube y todos atravesaron el mar.

1 Now I would not have you ignorant, brothers, that our fathers were all under the cloud, and all passed through the sea;

2 A esto podríamos llamarlo «bautismo» —bautismo en el mar y en la nube— para unirse a Moisés.

2 and were all baptized into Moses in the cloud and in the sea;

3 Luego, comieron el mismo alimento espiritual

3 and all ate the same spiritual food;

4 y bebieron la misma bebida espiritual. Cristo estaba allí con ellos, como poderosa Roca de refrigerio espiritual.

4 and all drank the same spiritual drink. For they drank of a spiritual rock that followed them, and the rock was Christ.

5 Sin embargo, a pesar de todo, la mayoría de los israelitas no obedecieron a Dios, y murieron allí mismo en el desierto.

5 However with most of them, God was not well pleased, for they were overthrown in the wilderness.

6 De aquí aprendemos una gran lección: que no debemos desear lo malo como ellos lo desearon.

6 Now these things were our examples, to the intent we should not lust after evil things as they also lusted.

7 No debemos adorar ídolos, como ellos. (Las Escrituras nos dicen que «el pueblo se sentó a comer y a beber, y luego se produjo el desenfreno»).

7 Don’t be idolaters, as some of them were. As it is written, “The people sat down to eat and drink, and rose up to play.”

8 No debemos cometer inmoralidades sexuales, como varios de ellos hicieron, por lo que veintitrés mil cayeron muertos en un día.

8 Let’s not commit sexual immorality, as some of them committed, and in one day twenty-three thousand fell.

9 No pongamos a prueba al Señor, porque muchos de ellos lo hicieron y murieron mordidos por serpientes.

9 Let’s not test Christ, as some of them tested, and perished by the serpents.

10 Y no murmuremos contra Dios, como hicieron algunos israelitas y el Señor envió a su ángel a destruirlos.

10 Don’t grumble, as some of them also grumbled, and perished by the destroyer.

11 Estos incidentes ocurrieron para servirnos de ejemplo; son una advertencia y fueron escritos para nosotros que vivimos cuando el mundo se aproxima a su fin.

11 Now all these things happened to them by way of example, and they were written for our admonition, on whom the ends of the ages have come.

12 Por lo tanto, el que piense que está firme, tenga cuidado de no caer.

12 Therefore let him who thinks he stands be careful that he doesn’t fall.

13 Ustedes no han pasado por ninguna tentación que no sea común al género humano. Pero pueden estar confiados en la fidelidad de Dios, que no dejará que la tentación sea más fuerte de lo que puedan resistir. Dios les mostrará la manera de resistir la tentación y escapar de ella.

13 No temptation has taken you except what is common to man. God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted above what you are able, but will with the temptation also make the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it.

14 Por lo tanto, hermanos amados, huyan de la idolatría.

14 Therefore, my beloved, flee from idolatry.

15 Ustedes son inteligentes. Piénsenlo y díganme si no es verdad lo que les digo.

15 I speak as to wise men. Judge what I say.

16 Cuando damos gracias por la copa de bendición, ¿no quiere decir que participamos de las bendiciones de la sangre de Cristo? Y cuando partimos el pan para comerlo juntos, ¿no entramos en comunión con el cuerpo de Cristo?

16 The cup of blessing which we bless, isn’t it a sharing of the blood of Christ? The bread which we break, isn’t it a sharing of the body of Christ?

17 Por muchos que seamos, todos comemos del mismo pan, indicando que formamos parte de un solo cuerpo: el de Cristo.

17 Because there is one loaf of bread, we, who are many, are one body; for we all partake of the one loaf of bread.

18 Y el pueblo judío, que come de los sacrificios, ¿no entra en comunión con el altar?

18 Consider Israel according to the flesh. Don’t those who eat the sacrifices participate in the altar?

19 ¿Qué estoy tratando de decir? ¿Digo que los ídolos que reciben sacrificios tienen vida y que tales sacrificios tienen valor?

19 What am I saying then? That a thing sacrificed to idols is anything, or that an idol is anything?

20 No; de ninguna manera. Lo que digo es que los que ofrecen sacrificios a los ídolos, en realidad se los ofrecen a los demonios, y nunca a Dios. Y no quiero que ninguno de ustedes tenga comunión con los demonios.

20 But I say that the things which the Gentiles sacrifice, they sacrifice to demons and not to God, and I don’t desire that you would have fellowship with demons.

21 No se puede beber de la copa del Señor y también de la copa de los demonios. No se puede participar de la mesa del Señor y también de la mesa de los demonios.

21 You can’t both drink the cup of the Lord and the cup of demons. You can’t both partake of the table of the Lord and of the table of demons.

22 ¿Qué, pues? ¿Nos arriesgaremos a poner celoso al Señor? ¿Somos más fuertes que él?

22 Or do we provoke the Lord to jealousy? Are we stronger than he?

23 Es verdad que «todo está permitido», pero no todo es provechoso ni edifica a los demás.

23 “All things are lawful for me,” but not all things are profitable. “All things are lawful for me,” but not all things build up.

24 Uno no puede pensar sólo en uno mismo. Hay que pensar en lo que conviene para el bien de los demás.

24 Let no one seek his own, but each one his neighbor’s good.

25 Coman de cualquier carne que se venda en la carnicería. No pregunten nada, por motivos de conciencia.

25 Whatever is sold in the butcher shop, eat, asking no question for the sake of conscience,

26 Porque la tierra y cuanto en ella hay pertenecen al Señor.

26 for “the earth is the Lord’s, and its fullness.”

27 Si alguien que no es cristiano los invita a comer, acepten la invitación y coman cuanto les pongan delante sin preguntar nada por motivos de conciencia.

27 But if one of those who don’t believe invites you to a meal, and you are inclined to go, eat whatever is set before you, asking no questions for the sake of conscience.

28 Pero si alguien les advierte de que aquella carne fue sacrificada a los ídolos, no la coman por el bien del que lo dijo, y por motivos de conciencia.

28 But if anyone says to you, “This was offered to idols,” don’t eat it for the sake of the one who told you, and for the sake of conscience. For “the earth is the Lord’s, with all its fullness.”

29 En este caso, no me refiero a la conciencia de uno mismo, sino a la del otro. ¿Por qué tiene uno que guiarse por lo que otro piense y limitarse a sus opiniones?

29 Conscience, I say, not your own, but the other’s conscience. For why is my liberty judged by another conscience?

30 Si le doy gracias a Dios por lo que como, ¿por qué me van a condenar por comerlo?

30 If I partake with thankfulness, why am I denounced for something I give thanks for?

31 En conclusión: uno debe de glorificar a Dios en todo lo que hace; hasta en lo que come y bebe.

31 Whether therefore you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God.

32 No seamos piedra de tropiezo para nadie: ni para los judíos ni para los gentiles ni para la iglesia de Dios.

32 Give no occasion for stumbling, whether to Jews, to Greeks, or to the assembly of God;

33 Esto trato de hacer yo. Procuro agradar a todo el mundo. No hago sólo lo que me gusta o conviene, sino lo que es mejor para los demás, para que así se puedan salvar.

33 even as I also please all men in all things, not seeking my own profit, but the profit of the many, that they may be saved.

What the Fathers said

Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).

How these were chosen

“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).

Commentary 10:13 John Chrysostom, Homilies on First Corinthians (Homily XXIV)
Thus, because he terrified them greatly, relating the ancient examples, and threw them into an agony, saying, "Let him that thinketh he standeth take heed lest he fall; "though they had borne many temptations, and had exercised themselves many times therein; for "I was with you," saith he, "in weakness, and in fear, and in much trembling:" (1 Cor. ii.

Quotes verse 10:13 Augustine of Hippo, Confessions (Book X, Chapters V–VIII)
But there is hope, because Thou art faithful, who wilt not suffer us to be tempted above that we are able, but wilt with the temptation also make a way to escape, that we may be able to bear it. I would therefore confess what I know concerning myself; I will confess also what I know not concerning myself.
