My LORD’s Bible1 Corinthians 10
1For I would not have you ignorant, brethren, that our fathers were all under the cloud: and all passed through the sea.
Nolo enim vos ignorare fratres, quoniam patres nostri omnes sub nube fuerunt, et omnes mare transierunt,
2And all in Moses were baptized, in the cloud and in the sea:
et omnes in Moyse baptizati sunt in nube, et in mari:
6Now these things were done in a figure of us, that we should not covet evil things, as they also coveted.
Hæc autem in figura facta sunt nostri, ut non simus concupiscentes malorum, sicut et illi concupierunt.
7Neither become ye idolaters, as some of them, as it is written: The people sat down to eat and drink and rose up to play.
Neque idololatræ efficiamini, sicut quidam ex ipsis: quemadmodum scriptum est: Sedit populus manducare, et bibere, et surrexerunt ludere.
8Neither let us commit fornication, as some of them committed fornication: and there fell in one day three and twenty thousand.
Neque fornicemur, sicut quidam ex ipsis fornicati sunt, et ceciderunt una die viginti tria millia.
9Neither let us tempt Christ, as some of them tempted and perished by the serpents.
Neque tentemus Christum, sicut quidam eorum tentaverunt, et a serpentibus perierunt.
10Neither do you murmur, as some of them murmured and were destroyed by the destroyer.
Neque murmuraveritis, sicut quidam eorum murmuraverunt, et perierunt ab exterminatore.
11Now all these things happened to them in figure: and they are written for our correction, upon whom the ends of the world are come.
Hæc autem omnia in figura contingebant illis: scripta sunt autem ad correptionem nostram, in quos fines sæculorum devenerunt.
12Wherefore, he that thinketh himself to stand, let him take heed lest he fall.
Itaque qui se existimat stare, videat ne cadat.
13Let 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 issue, that you may be able to bear it.
Tentatio vos non apprehendat nisi humana: fidelis autem Deus est, qui non patietur vos tentari supra id quod potestis, sed faciet etiam cum tentatione proventum ut possitis sustinere.
14Wherefore, my dearly beloved, fly from the service of idols.
Propter quod, carissimi mihi, fugite ab idolorum cultura:
15I speak as to wise men: judge ye yourselves what I say.
ut prudentibus loquor, vos ipsi judicate quod dico.
16The chalice of benediction 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?
Calix benedictionis, cui benedicimus, nonne communicatio sanguinis Christi est? et panis quem frangimus, nonne participatio corporis Domini est?
17For we, being many, are one bread, one body: all that partake of one bread.
Quoniam unus panis, unum corpus multi sumus, omnes qui de uno pane participamus.
20But 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.
Sed quæ immolant gentes, dæmoniis immolant, et non Deo. Nolo autem vos socios fieri dæmoniorum:
21You 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.
non potestis calicem Domini bibere, et calicem dæmoniorum; non potestis mensæ Domini participes esse, et mensæ dæmoniorum.
22Do we provoke the Lord to jealousy? Are we stronger than he? All things are lawful for me: but all things are not expedient.
An æmulamur Dominum? numquid fortiores illo sumus? Omnia mihi licent, sed non omnia expediunt.
23All things are lawful for me: but all things do not edify.
Omnia mihi licent, sed non omnia ædificat.
24Let no man seek his own, but that which is another’s.
Nemo quod suum est quærat, sed quod alterius.
25Whatsoever is sold in the shambles, eat: asking no question for conscience’ sake.
Omne quod in macello venit, manducate, nihil interrogantes propter conscientiam.
27If 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.
Si quis vocat vos infidelium, et vultis ire: omne quod vobis apponitur, manducate, nihil interrogantes propter conscientiam.
28But if any man say: This has been sacrificed to idols: do not eat of it, for his sake that told it and for conscience’ sake.
Si quis autem dixerit: Hoc immolatum est idolis: nolite manducare propter illum qui indicavit, et propter conscientiam:
29Conscience I say, not thy own, but the other’s. For why is my liberty judged by another man’s conscience?
conscientiam autem dico non tuam, sed alterius. Ut quid enim libertas mea judicatur ab aliena conscientia?
30If I partake with thanksgiving, why am I evil spoken of for that for which I give thanks?
Si ego cum gratia participo, quid blasphemor pro eo quod gratias ago?
31Therefore, whether you eat or drink, or whatsoever else you do, do all to the glory of God.
Sive ergo manducatis, sive bibitis, sive aliud quid facitis: omnia in gloriam Dei facite.
33As I also in all things please all men, not seeking that which is profitable to myself but to many: that they may be saved.
sicut et ego per omnia omnibus placeo, non quærens quod mihi utile est, sed quod multis: ut salvi fiant.
