| 10:14 | Wherfor, ye most dereworthe to me, fle ye fro worschiping of maumetis. |
| 10:15 | As to prudent men Y speke, deme ye you silf that thing that Y seie. |
| 10:16 | Whether the cuppe of blessyng which we blessen, is not the comynyng of Cristis blood? and whether the breed which we breken, is not the takyng of the bodi of the Lord? |
| 10:17 | For we manye ben o breed and o bodi, alle we that taken part of o breed and of o cuppe. |
| 10:18 | Se ye Israel aftir the fleisch, whethir thei that eeten sacrifices, ben not partyneris of the auter? |

| 10:29 | thi conscience, but of an othere. But wherto is my fredom demed of an othere mannus conscience? |
| 10:30 | Therfor if Y take part with grace, what am Y blasfemed, for that that Y do thankyngis? |
| 10:31 | Therfor whether ye eten, or drynken, or don ony other thing, do ye alle thingis `in to the glorie of God. |

| 10:1 | Moreouer, brethren, I woulde not that yee shoulde bee ignorant, that all our fathers were vnder that cloude, and all passed through that sea, |
| 10:2 | And were all baptized vnto Moses, in that cloude, and in that sea, |
| 10:3 | And did all eat the same spiritual meat, |
| 10:4 | And did all drinke the same spirituall drinke (for they dranke of the spiritual Rocke that folowed them: and the Rocke was Christ) |
| 10:5 | But with many of them God was not pleased: for they were ouerthrowen in ye wildernes. |
| 10:6 | Nowe these things are our ensamples, to the intent that we should not lust after euil things as they also lusted. |
| 10:7 | Neither bee ye idolaters as were some of them, as it is written, The people sate downe to eate and drinke, and rose vp to play. |
| 10:8 | Neither let vs commit fornication, as some of them committed fornication, and fell in one day three and twentie thousand. |
| 10:9 | Neither let vs tempt Christ, as some of them also tempted him, and were destroyed of serpents. |
| 10:10 | Neither murmure ye, as some of them also murmured, and were destroyed of the destroyer. |
| 10:11 | Nowe all these things came vnto them for ensamples, and were written to admonish vs, vpon whome the endes of the world are come. |
| 10:12 | Wherefore, let him that thinketh he standeth, take heede lest he fall. |
| 10:13 | There hath no tentation taken you, but such as appertaine to man: and God is faithfull, which will not suffer you to be tempted aboue that you be able, but wil euen giue the issue with the tentation, that ye may be able to beare it. |
| 10:14 | Wherefore my beloued, flee from idolatrie. |
| 10:15 | I speake as vnto them which haue vnderstanding: iugde ye what I say. |
| 10:16 | The cup of blessing which we blesse, is it not the communion of the blood of Christ? The bread which we breake, is it not the communion of the body of Christ? |
| 10:17 | For we that are many, are one bread and one body, because we all are partakers of one bread. |
| 10:18 | Beholde Israel, which is after the flesh: are not they which eate of the sacrifices partakers of the altar? |
| 10:19 | What say I then? that the idole is any thing? or that that which is sacrificed to idoles, is any thing? |
| 10:20 | Nay, but that these things which the Gentiles sacrifice, they sacrifice to deuils, and not vnto God: and I would not that ye should haue fellowship with the deuils. |
| 10:21 | Ye can not drinke the cup of the Lord, and the cup of the deuils. Ye can not be partakers of the Lords table, and of the table of the deuils. |
| 10:22 | Doe we prouoke the Lord to anger? are we stronger then he? |
| 10:23 | All things are lawfull for me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawfull for me, but all things edifie not. |
| 10:24 | Let no man seeke his owne, but euery man anothers wealth. |
| 10:25 | Whatsoeuer is solde in the shambles, eate ye, and aske no question for conscience sake. |
| 10:26 | For the earth is the Lords, and all that therein is. |
| 10:27 | If any of them which beleeue not, call you to a feast, and if ye wil go, whatsoeuer is set before you, eate, asking no question for conscience sake. |
| 10:28 | But if any man say vnto you, This is sacrificed vnto idoles, eate it not, because of him that shewed it, and for the conscience (for the earth is the Lords, and all that therein is) |
| 10:29 | And the conscience, I say, not thine, but of that other: for why should my libertie be condemned of another mans conscience? |
| 10:30 | For if I through Gods benefite be partaker, why am I euill spoken of, for that wherefore I giue thankes? |
| 10:31 | Whether therefore ye eate, or drinke, or whatsoeuer ye doe, doe all to the glory of God. |
| 10:32 | Giue none offence, neither to the Iewes, nor to the Grecians, nor to the Church of God: |
| 10:33 | Euen as I please all men in all things, not seeking mine owne profite, but the profite of many, that they might be saued. |
| 10:1 | Moreover, brethren, I do not want you to be ignorant that all our fathers were under the cloud, all passed through the sea, |
| 10:2 | all were baptized under Moses in the cloud and in the sea, |
| 10:3 | all ate the same spiritual food, |
| 10:4 | and all drank the same spiritual drink. Because, they drank of that spiritual Rock that followed them, and that Rock was Christ. |
| 10:5 | But with most of them God was not well pleased, because they were scattered in the wilderness. |
| 10:6 | Now these things became our examples, to the intent that we should not lust after evil things as they also lusted. |
| 10:7 | And do not become idolaters as were some of them. As it is written, "The people sat down to eat and drink, and rose up to play." |
| 10:8 | Nor let us commit sexual immorality, as some of them committed, and in one day twenty three thousand fell; |
| 10:9 | nor let us tempt Christ, as some of them also tempted, and were destroyed by serpents; |
| 10:10 | nor complain, as some of them also complained, and were destroyed by the destroyer. |
| 10:11 | Now all these things happened to them as examples, and they were written for our admonition, upon whom the ends of the ages have come. |
| 10:12 | Therefore let him who thinks he stands take heed lest he fall. |
| 10:13 | There is no temptation that has come upon you except such as is common to everyone; but God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you are able, but with the temptation will also make 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 wise men; judge for yourselves what I say. |
| 10:16 | The cup of blessing which we bless, is it not the communion of the blood of Christ? The bread which we break, is it not the communion of the body of Christ? |
| 10:17 | Because we, though many, are one bread and one body; because we all partake of that one bread. |
| 10:18 | Observe Israel according to the flesh: Are not those who eat of the sacrifices partakers of the altar? |
| 10:19 | What am I saying then? That an idol is anything, or what is offered in sacrifice to idols is anything? |
| 10:20 | Rather, I am saying that the things which the Gentiles sacrifice they sacrifice to demons and not to God, and I do not want that you would have fellowship with demons. |
| 10:21 | You cannot drink the cup of the Lord and the cup of demons; you cannot partake of the Lord's table and of the table of demons. |
| 10:22 | Or do we provoke the Lord to jealousy? Are we stronger than He? |
| 10:23 | All things are lawful for me, but not all things are helpful; all things are lawful for me, but not all things edify. |
| 10:24 | Let no one seek his own, but each one the other's well being. |
| 10:25 | Eat whatever is sold in the meat market, asking no questions for conscience' sake; |
| 10:26 | because "the earth is the LORD'S, and all its fullness." |
| 10:27 | If any of those who do not believe invites you to a meal, and you desire to go, eat whatever is set before you, asking no question for conscience' sake. |
| 10:28 | But if anyone says to you, "This was offered to idols," do not eat it for the sake of the one who told you, and for conscience' sake; because "the earth is the LORD'S, and all its fullness." |
| 10:29 | I do not say your own conscience, but that of the others. Because why is my liberty judged by another man's conscience? |
| 10:30 | But if I partake with thanks, why am I evil spoken of for that over which I give thanks? |
| 10:31 | Therefore, whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God. |
| 10:32 | Give no offense, either to the Jews or to the Gentiles or to the church of God, |
| 10:33 | just as I also please all men in all things, not seeking my own profit, but the profit of many, that they may be saved. |
