WEB World English Bible (Classic, with Deuterocanon)

1 ου θελω δε υμασ αγνοειν αδελφοι οτι οι πατερεσ ημων παντεσ υπο την νεφελην ησαν και παντεσ δια τησ θαλασσησ διηλθον

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

2 και παντεσ εισ τον μωυσην εβαπτισαντο εν τη νεφελη και εν τη θαλασση

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

3 και παντεσ το αυτο βρωμα πνευματικον εφαγον

3 and all ate the same spiritual food;

4 και παντεσ το αυτο πομα πνευματικον επιον επινον γαρ εκ πνευματικησ ακολουθουσησ πετρασ η δε πετρα ην ο χριστοσ

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

5 αλλ ουκ εν τοισ πλειοσιν αυτων ευδοκησεν ο θεοσ κατεστρωθησαν γαρ εν τη ερημω

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

6 ταυτα δε τυποι ημων εγενηθησαν εισ το μη ειναι ημασ επιθυμητασ κακων καθωσ κακεινοι επεθυμησαν

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

7 μηδε ειδωλολατραι γινεσθε καθωσ τινεσ αυτων ωσπερ γεγραπται εκαθισεν ο λαοσ φαγειν και πιειν και ανεστησαν παιζειν

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 μηδε πορνευωμεν καθωσ τινεσ αυτων επορνευσαν και επεσον εν μια ημερα εικοσι τρεισ χιλιαδεσ

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

9 μηδε εκπειραζωμεν τον χριστον καθωσ και τινεσ αυτων επειρασαν και υπο των οφεων απωλοντο

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

10 μηδε γογγυζετε καθωσ και τινεσ αυτων εγογγυσαν και απωλοντο υπο του ολοθρευτου

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

11 ταυτα δε παντα τυποι συνεβαινον εκεινοισ εγραφη δε προσ νουθεσιαν ημων εισ ουσ τα τελη των αιωνων κατηντησεν

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 ωστε ο δοκων εσταναι βλεπετω μη πεση

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

13 πειρασμοσ υμασ ουκ ειληφεν ει μη ανθρωπινοσ πιστοσ δε ο θεοσ οσ ουκ εασει υμασ πειρασθηναι υπερ ο δυνασθε αλλα ποιησει συν τω πειρασμω και την εκβασιν του δυνασθαι υμασ υπενεγκειν

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 διοπερ αγαπητοι μου φευγετε απο τησ ειδωλολατρειασ

14 Therefore, my beloved, flee from idolatry.

15 ωσ φρονιμοισ λεγω κρινατε υμεισ ο φημι

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

16 το ποτηριον τησ ευλογιασ ο ευλογουμεν ουχι κοινωνια του αιματοσ του χριστου εστιν τον αρτον ον κλωμεν ουχι κοινωνια του σωματοσ του χριστου εστιν

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 οτι εισ αρτοσ εν σωμα οι πολλοι εσμεν οι γαρ παντεσ εκ του ενοσ αρτου μετεχομεν

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 βλεπετε τον ισραηλ κατα σαρκα ουχι οι εσθιοντεσ τασ θυσιασ κοινωνοι του θυσιαστηριου εισιν

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

19 τι ουν φημι οτι ειδωλον τι εστιν η οτι ειδωλοθυτον τι εστιν

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

20 αλλ οτι α θυει τα εθνη δαιμονιοισ θυει και ου θεω ου θελω δε υμασ κοινωνουσ των δαιμονιων γινεσθαι

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 ου δυνασθε ποτηριον κυριου πινειν και ποτηριον δαιμονιων ου δυνασθε τραπεζησ κυριου μετεχειν και τραπεζησ δαιμονιων

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 η παραζηλουμεν τον κυριον μη ισχυροτεροι αυτου εσμεν

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

23 παντα μοι εξεστιν αλλ ου παντα συμφερει παντα μοι εξεστιν αλλ ου παντα οικοδομει

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 μηδεισ το εαυτου ζητειτω αλλα το του ετερου εκαστοσ

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

25 παν το εν μακελλω πωλουμενον εσθιετε μηδεν ανακρινοντεσ δια την συνειδησιν

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

26 του γαρ κυριου η γη και το πληρωμα αυτησ

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

27 ει δε τισ καλει υμασ των απιστων και θελετε πορευεσθαι παν το παρατιθεμενον υμιν εσθιετε μηδεν ανακρινοντεσ δια την συνειδησιν

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 εαν δε τισ υμιν ειπη τουτο ειδωλοθυτον εστιν μη εσθιετε δι εκεινον τον μηνυσαντα και την συνειδησιν του γαρ κυριου η γη και το πληρωμα αυτησ

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 συνειδησιν δε λεγω ουχι την εαυτου αλλα την του ετερου ινα τι γαρ η ελευθερια μου κρινεται υπο αλλησ συνειδησεωσ

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

30 ει εγω χαριτι μετεχω τι βλασφημουμαι υπερ ου εγω ευχαριστω

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

31 ειτε ουν εσθιετε ειτε πινετε ειτε τι ποιειτε παντα εισ δοξαν θεου ποιειτε

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

32 απροσκοποι γινεσθε και ιουδαιοισ και ελλησιν και τη εκκλησια του θεου

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

33 καθωσ καγω παντα πασιν αρεσκω μη ζητων το εμαυτου συμφερον αλλα το των πολλων ινα σωθωσιν

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.

Quotes verse 10:11 John Chrysostom, Homilies on the Gospel of Matthew (Homily II)
Hear ye not Paul saying, "that all these things are written for our admonition"? And thou, if thou hadst to take up a Gospel, wouldest not choose to do so with hands unwashed; but the things that are laid up within it, dost thou not think to be highly necessary?
