1  Now concerning the [things] offered to idols, we know that we all have knowledge. Knowledge puffs up, but love edifies.

1  NOW as concerning sacrifices offered to idols, we know well, that we all have knowledge; knowledge makes for pride, but love ennobles.

2  And if anyone thinks that he knows anything, he has come to know nothing yet as he ought to know.

2  If any man thinketh that he knoweth anything, he knoweth not yet as he ought to know;

2  But if anyone considers himself to know anything, he does not yet know in the way that he ought to know.

3  But if anyone loves God, this one has been known by Him.

3  For if anyone loves God, he is known by him.

4  Therefore concerning the eating of the things offered to idols, we know that an idol is nothing in the world, and that there is no other God but one.

4  But as to the foods that are immolated to idols, we know that an idol in the world is nothing, and that no one is God, except One.

4  As concerning therefore the eating of those things that are offered in sacrifice unto idols, we know that an idol is nothing in the world, and that there is none other God but one.

5  For even if they are being called "gods"whether in heaven or on earth (just as there are many gods and many lords),

5  For though there be that are called gods, whether in heaven or on earth; as there are gods many, and lords many;

5  For although there are things that are called gods, whether in heaven or on earth, (if one even considers there to be many gods and many lords)

6  yet for us there is one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we for Him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, through whom [are] all things, and through whom we [live].

6  To us there is one God, the Father, from whom comes every thing and by whom we live; and one LORD Jesus Christ, by whom are all things, and we by him.

7  However, this knowledge is not in all [people]; rather some, with consciousness of the idol, until now eat it as [something] offered to idols; and their conscience, being weak, is defiled.

7  Howbeit there is not in all men that knowledge: but some, being used until now to the idol, eat as [of] a thing sacrificed to an idol; and their conscience being weak is defiled.

7  But knowledge is not in everyone. For some persons, even now, with consent to an idol, eat what has been sacrificed to an idol. And their conscience, being infirm, becomes polluted.

8  But food does not commend us to God; for neither if we eat do we have more, nor if we do not eat do we lack.

8  But food will not commend us to God: neither, if we eat not, are we the worse; nor, if we eat, are we the better.

8  But meat does not bring us closer to God: for neither, if we eat, are we the better; neither if we do not eat, are we the worse.

9  But beware lest somehow this liberty of yours become a stumbling block to those who are weak.

9  But take heed lest by any means this liberty of yours become a stumblingblock to the weak.

9  But be careful not to let your liberty become a cause of sin to those who are weak.

10  For if anyone should see you who has knowledge dining in an idol's temple, will not his conscience, being weak, be strengthened so that they eat foods offered to idols?

10  For if a man see thee who hast knowledge sitting at meat in an idol`s temple, will not his conscience, if he is weak, be emboldened to eat things sacrificed to idols?

10  For if any one should see you, who has knowledge, at table in the temple of idols, shall not the conscience of him who is weak encourage him to eat that which is sacrificed to idols?

11  And because of your knowledge shall the weak brother perish, for the sake of whom Christ died?

11  So the one who is weak and for whom Christ died will be lost through your indifference.

12  But when you thus sin against the brothers, and wound their weak conscience, you sin against Christ.

12  And if you offend your brothers, and so influence their weak conscience, you also offend Christ.

13  Wherefore, if food causes my brother to stumble, I will by no means eat meat, lest I cause my brother to stumble.

13  Because of this, if food leads my brother to sin, I will never eat meat, lest I lead my brother to sin.

9:1  Am I not an apostle? Am I not free? Have I not seen Jesus Christ our Lord? Are you not my work in YHWH?

9:2  If I am not an apostle to others, yet indeed I am to you. For you are the seal of my apostleship in YHWH.

2  If to others I am not an apostle, yet at least I am to you; for the seal of mine apostleship are ye in the Lord.

9:3  My defense to those who examine me is this

3  So my answer to those who criticize me is this,

3  Mine answer to them that do examine me is this,

9:4  Do we not have [the] right to eat and drink?

4  Have we not power to eat and to drink?

9:5  Do we not have [the] right to take along a wife [who is] a sister, as do also the other apostles, the brothers of YHWH, and Cephas?

5  Have we no right to lead about a wife that is a believer, even as the rest of the apostles, and the brethren of the Lord, and Cephas?

9:6  Or is it only Barnabas and I who must work for a living?

6  Or I only and Barnabas, have we not a right to forbear working?

6  Or is it only myself and Barnabas who do not have the authority to act in this way?

9:7  Who ever serves as a soldier at his own expense? Who plants a vineyard and does not eat of its fruit? Or who tends a flock and does not drink from the milk of the flock?

7  What soldier ever serveth at his own charges? who planteth a vineyard, and eateth not the fruit thereof? Or who feedeth a flock, and eateth not of the milk of the flock?

7  Who goeth a warfare any time at his own charges? who planteth a vineyard, and eateth not of the fruit thereof? or who feedeth a flock, and eateth not of the milk of the flock?

9:8  Do I say these things as a mere man? Or does not the law say these things also?

8  I say these things as a man. Behold the law says them also.

9:9  For it is written in the law of Moses, "You shall not muzzle an ox while it threshes."Is it oxen God is concerned about?

9:10  Or does He say [this] altogether for our sakes? For our sakes, no doubt, for it is written, that he that plows should plow in hope, and he that threshes, in hope should partake of his hope.

10  Or is he saying this, indeed, for our sake? These things were written specifically for us, because he who plows, ought to plow in hope, and he who threshes, too, in hope of receiving the produce.

9:11  If we have sown spiritual things for you, [is it] a great thing if we reap your material things?

11  Now if we have sown among you spiritual things, is it too much that we should reap material things from you?

9:12  If others partake of this right over you, do not we even more? Nevertheless we did not use this right, but bear all things lest we hinder the gospel of Christ.

9:13  Do you not know that those who minister the holy things eat from the temple, and those who serve at the altar have a share in the altar?

13  Know ye not that they that minister about sacred things eat [of] the things of the temple, [and] they that wait upon the altar have their portion with the altar?

13  Do ye not know that they which minister about holy things live of the things of the temple? and they which wait at the altar are partakers with the altar?

9:14  Thus also YHWH commanded those who proclaim the gospel to live from the gospel.

14  Even so did the Lord ordain that they that proclaim the gospel should live of the gospel.

14  So, too, has the Lord ordained that those who announce the Gospel should live by the Gospel.

9:15  But I used none of these things, nor have I written these things that it should become thus for me; for it is better for me rather to die than that anyone should make my boasting void.

15  But I have used none of these things: and I write not these things that it may be so done in my case; for [it were] good for me rather to die, than that any man should make my glorifying void.

15  Yet I have used none of these things. And I have not written so that these things may be done for me. For it is better for me to die, rather than to let anyone empty out my glory.

9:16  For if I preach the gospel, there is nothing for me to boast about, for necessity is pressed upon me; yes, woe is me if I do not preach the gospel!

16  For though I preach the gospel, I have nothing to glory of: for I am under obligation; yea, woe is unto me if I preach not the gospel!

9:17  For if I do this willingly, I have a reward; but if unwillingly, I have been entrusted with a commission.

17  For if I do this of mine own will, I have a reward: but if not of mine own will, I have a stewardship intrusted to me.

9:18  What then is my reward? That when I preach the gospel, I may present the gospel of Christ free of charge, so as not to exploit my rights in the gospel.

18  And what, then, would be my reward? So, when preaching the Gospel, I should give the Gospel without taking, so that I may not misuse my authority in the Gospel.

9:19  For being free from all [men], I have made myself a servant to all, in order that I might win the more;

19  For though I was free from all [men,] I brought myself under bondage to all, that I might gain the more.

19  Because I am free from all these things, I have served all men that I may gain many.

9:20  and to the Jews I became as a Jew, in order that I might win Jews; to those who are under law, as under law, in order that I might win those who are under law;

20  And so, to the Jews, I became like a Jew, so that I might gain the Jews.

9:21  to those outside the law, as [one] outside the law (not being outside the law toward God, but subject to [the ]law toward Christ), in order that I might win those outside the law;

21  to them that are without law, as without law, not being without law to God, but under law to Christ, that I might gain them that are without law.

21  To those who are under the law, I became as if I were under the law, (though I was not under the law) so that I might gain those who were under the law. To those who were without the law, I became as if I were without the law, (though I was not without the law of God, being in the law of Christ) so that I might gain those who were without the law.

9:22  to the weak I became as weak, in order that I might win the weak. I have become all things to all [men], that I might by all means save some.

22  To the weak, I became weak, so that I might gain the weak. To all, I became all, so that I might save all.

22  With the weak I became as weak, that I might win the weak: I became everything to every man, that I might by all means save everyone.

9:23  Now this I do for the sake of the gospel, in order that I may become a partaker of it [with you].

23  And I do all things for the gospel`s sake, that I may be a joint partaker thereof.

23  And this I do for the gospelÆs sake, that I might be partaker of it.

9:24  Do you not know that those running in a stadium all run, but one receives the prize? So run, in order that you may win.

24  Know ye not that they that run in a race run all, but one receiveth the prize? Even so run; that ye may attain.

24  Do you not know that, of those who run in a race, all of them, certainly, are runners, but only one achieves the prize. Similarly, you must run, so that you may achieve.

9:25  And everyone who competes exercises self-control [in] all things. Now they [compete] in order that they may receive a perishable crown, but we [compete] [for ]an imperishable crown.

25  And one who competes in a contest abstains from all things. And they do this, of course, so that they may achieve a corruptible crown. But we do this, so that we may achieve what is incorruptible.

9:26  Therefore I run thus: not as without a goal, thus I box: not as one beating the air.

26  I therefore so run, as not uncertainly; so fight I, as not beating the air

26  And so I run, but not with uncertainty. And so I fight, but not by flailing in the air.

9:27  But I treat my body roughly, and I bring it into subjection, lest, having preached to others, I myself should become disqualified.

27  but I buffet my body, and bring it into bondage: lest by any means, after that I have preached to others, I myself should be rejected.

27  Instead, I chastise my body, so as to redirect it into servitude. Otherwise, I might preach to others, but become myself an outcast.

10:1  Now I do not want you to be ignorant, brothers, that all our fathers were under the cloud, and all passed through the sea,

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

1  MOREOVER, brethren, I want you to know, that our fathers were all under the cloud, and all passed through the sea;

10:2  and all were baptized into Moses in the cloud and in the sea,

10:3  and all ate the same spiritual food,

3  And did all eat the same spiritual meat;

10:4  and all drank the same spiritual drink. For they were drinking from that spiritual Rock that followed them, and that Rock was Christ.

4  And they all drank of the same spiritual drink. And so, they all were drinking of the spiritual rock seeking to obtain them; and that rock was Christ.

10:5  Nevertheless, with the majority of them God was not pleased, for their bodies were scattered in the wilderness.

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

5  But with most of them, God was not well-pleased. For they were struck down in the desert.

10:6  Now these things took place as examples for us, in order that we should not lust after evil things, as they also lusted.

6  But they became an example to us, so that we should not covet evil things as they did covet.

10:7  Nor be idolaters, just as some of them; as it is written, "The people sat down to eat and drink, and rose up to play."

7  And so, do not take part in idolatry, as some of them did, just as it was written: “The people sat down to eat and to drink, and then they rose up to amuse themselves.”

7  Neither should we become idolaters as were some of them; as it is written, The people sat down to eat and drink, and rose up to quarrel.

10:8  Nor let us commit fornication, just as some of them fornicated, and in one day twenty-three thousand fell;

8  Neither let us commit fornication, as some of them committed, and fell in one day three and twenty thousand.

10:9  nor let us tempt Christ, just as also some of them tempted [Him], and were destroyed by serpents;

9  Neither let us make trial of the Lord, as some of them made trial, and perished by the serpents.

9  And let us not tempt Christ, as some of them tempted, and so they perished by serpents.

10:10  nor murmur, just as also some of them murmured, and were destroyed by the destroyer.

10  Neither murmur ye, as some of them murmured, and perished by the destroyer.

10  Neither should you murmur, as some of them murmured; for they were destroyed by the hand of the destroyer.

10:11  Now all these things happened to those [people] as examples, and they were written for our instruction, to whom the ends of the ages have come.

11  Now all of these things which happened to them are an example for us: and they are written for our admonition, for the world will come to an end in our day.

10:12  So then, let him who thinks he stands take heed, lest he should fall!

12  Wherefore let him that thinketh he standeth take heed lest he fall.

12  And so, whosoever considers himself to be standing, let him be careful not to fall.

10:13  No temptation has overtaken you except such as is common to man; but God is faithful, who will not permit you to be tempted beyond what you are able, but with the temptation, He will also make the way out, [so as for] you to be able to bear it.

13  There hath no temptation taken you but such as man can bear: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation make also the way of escape, that ye may be able to endure it.

13  Temptation should not take hold of you, except what is human. For God is faithful, and he will not permit you to be tempted beyond your ability. Instead, he will effect his Providence, even during temptation, so that you may be able to bear it.

10:14  Therefore, my beloved, flee from idolatry.

14  Because of this, most beloved of mine, flee from the worship of idols.

10:15  I speak as to wise men; judge for yourselves what I say.

15  Since I am speaking to those who are prudent, judge what I say for yourselves.

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?

16  The cup of benediction that we bless, is it not a communion in the Blood of Christ? And the bread that we break, is it not a participation in the Body of the Lord?

10:17  Because we, though many, are one bread and one body; for we all partake from the one bread.

17  Through the one bread, we, though many, are one body: all of us who are partakers of the one bread.

17  For just as the loaf of bread is one, so we are all one body; for we are all partakers of that one bread.

10:18  Look at Israel according to the flesh: are not those who eat of the sacrifices partakers of the altar?

18  Behold Israel after the flesh: have not they that eat the sacrifices communion with the altar?

10:19  What am I saying then? That an idol is anything, or what is offered to idols is anything?

10:20  [No], but that the[ ]things which the Gentiles sacrifice, they sacrifice to demons and not to God, and I do not desire that you should have fellowship with demons.

20  But the things that the Gentiles immolate, they immolate to demons, and not to God. And I do not want you to become partakers with demons.

20  But that which the pagans sacrifice, they sacrifice to devils and not to God: and I would not have you in fellowship with devils.

10:21  You cannot drink the cup of YHWH and the cup of demons; you cannot partake of the Lord's table and of the table of demons.

21  Ye cannot drink the cup of the Lord, and the cup of demons: ye cannot partake of the table of the Lord, and of the table of demons.

10:22  Or do we provoke YHWH to jealousy? Are we stronger than He?

22  Or should we provoke the Lord to jealousy? Are we stronger than he is? All is lawful to me, but not all is expedient.

22  Are we trying to provoke our LORD to jealousy? are we stronger than he?

10:23  All things are lawful for me, but not all things are profitable; all things are lawful for me, but not all things edify.

23  All is lawful to me, but not all is edifying.

23  Everything is lawful for me, but not everything is expedient: everything is lawful for me, but everything does not edify.

10:24  Let no one seek his own concerns, but let each [one] seek another's concern.

24  Let no man seek his own, but [each] his neighbor`s [good].

24  But let no man seek for himself alone, but let every man seek for his neighbor also.

10:25  Eat everything being sold in the meat market, questioning nothing, for conscience' sake;

25  Whatsoever is sold in the shambles, eat, asking no question for conscience` sake,

25  Anything for sale in the market place, that eat without question for conscience sake

10:26  for "The earth is YHWH's, and all its fullness."

26  for the earth is the Lord`s, and the fulness thereof.

26  “The earth and all its fullness belong to the Lord.”

10:27  And if any of the unbelievers invites you to dinner, and you desire to go, eat whatever is set before you, questioning nothing, for conscience' sake.

27  If one of them that believe not biddeth you [to a feast], and ye are disposed to go; whatsoever is set before you, eat, asking no question for conscience` sake.

27  If any pagan invite you, and you wish to go, whatever is set before you eat, without 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 his conscience' sake; for "The earth is YHWH's, and all its fullness."

28  But if any man say unto you, This hath been offered in sacrifice, eat not, for his sake that showed it, and for conscience sake

28  But if anyone says, “This has been sacrificed to idols,” do not eat it, for the sake of the one who told you, and for the sake of conscience.

10:29  "Conscience,"I say, not your own, but that of the other. For why is my freedom judged by another man's conscience?

29  But I am referring to the conscience of the other person, not to yours. For why should my liberty be judged by the conscience of another?

29  But the conscience of which I speak, is not yours, but the conscience of him who told you: for why is my liberty judged by another manÆs conscience?

10:30  But if I partake with thanks, why am I defamed for [that] of which I give thanks?

30  If I partake with thankfulness, why am I evil spoken of for that for which I give thanks?

30  For if I by grace am made worthy why should I be reproached for that for which I give thanks?

10:31  Therefore, whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all things for the glory of God.

10:32  Be without offense, both toward Jews and toward Greeks, and toward the church of God,

32  Give no occasions of stumbling, either to Jews, or to Greeks, or to the church of God

32  Give no offence, neither to the Jews, nor to the Syrians, nor 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.

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

33  just as I also, in all things, please everyone, not seeking what is best for myself, but what is best for many others, so that they may be saved.

11:1  Be imitators of me, just as I also [am] of Christ.

1  TAKE example by me, even as I also fol low Christ.

1  Be ye followers of me, even as I also am of Christ.

11:2  Now I praise you, brothers, because you remember me in all things, and you hold fast the traditions just as I handed down to you.

2  Now I praise you that ye remember me in all things, and hold fast the traditions, even as I delivered them to you.

11:3  But I want you to know that the head of every man is Christ, the head of woman is man, and the head of Christ is God.

3  So I want you to know that the head of every man is Christ. But the head of woman is man. Yet truly, the head of Christ is God.

3  But I would have you know, that the head of every man is Christ; and the head of the wife is her husband; and the head of Christ is God.

11:4  Every man who prays or who prophesies with his head covered, dishonors his head.

4  Every man praying or prophesying, having his head covered, dishonoreth his head.

11:5  But every woman who prays or who prophesies with her head uncovered dishonors her own head, for that is one and the same as if her [head] were shaved.

5  But every woman praying or prophesying with her head unveiled dishonoreth her head; for it is one and the same thing as if she were shaven.

5  And every woman who prays or prophesies with her head uncovered, dishonors her head: for she is equal to her whose head is shaven.

11:6  For if a woman is not covered, let her also have her hair cut. But if it is a shameful [thing ]for a woman to have her hair cut, or to be shaved, let her be covered.

6  So if a woman is not veiled, let her hair be cut off. Truly then, if it is a disgrace for a woman to have her hair cut off, or to have her head shaven, then she should cover her head.

6  For if the woman be not covered, let her also be shorn: but if it be a shame for a woman to be shorn or shaven, let her be covered.

11:7  For a man indeed ought not to cover his head, since he is the image and glory of God; but woman is the glory of man.

7  Certainly, a man ought not to cover his head, for he is the image and glory of God. But woman is the glory of man.

11:8  For man did not come from woman, but woman from man.

8  For the man is not of the woman; but the woman of the man

8  For the man was not created from the woman; but the woman was created from the man.

11:9  Nor was man created for woman, but woman for the man.

9  for neither was the man created for the woman; but the woman for the man

9  And indeed, man was not created for woman, but woman was created for man.

11:10  Because of this, the woman ought to have a [symbol] [of] authority on her head, because of the angels.

10  Therefore, a woman ought to have a sign of authority on her head, because of the Angels.

10  For this reason the woman ought to be modest and cover her head, as a mark of respect to the angels.

11:11  Nevertheless, neither is the man apart from the woman, nor the woman apart from the man, in YHWH.

11  Yet truly, man would not exist without woman, nor would woman exist without man, in the Lord.

11:12  For as the woman is from the man, even so the man is by the woman; but all things are of God.

12  For just as woman came into existence from man, so also does man exist through woman. But all things are from God.

11:13  Judge among yourselves. Is it proper for a woman to pray to God uncovered?

13  Judge ye in yourselves: is it seemly that a woman pray unto God unveiled?

13  Judge for yourselves, Is it comely for a woman to pray to God with uncovered head?

11:14  Does not nature itself teach you, that if a man has long hair, it is a dishonor to him?

14  Does not even nature herself teach you that, indeed, if a man grows his hair long, it is a disgrace for him?

14  Doth not even nature itself teach you, that, if a man have long hair, it is a shame unto him?

11:15  But if a woman has long hair, it is a glory for her; because her long hair has been given [to her] in place of a covering.

15  Yet truly, if a woman grows her hair long, it is a glory for her, because her hair has been given to her as a covering.

11:16  But if anyone seems to be contentious, we have no such custom, nor do the churches of God.

16  But if any man dispute these things, we have no precedent, neither has the church of God.

11:17  Now in giving these instructions I do not praise you, because you are not coming together for the better, but for the worse.

17  Now I caution you, without praising, about this: that you assemble together, and not for better, but for worse.

17  Now I give you these commands, not to praise you, for you have not made progress but have become worse.

11:18  For first of all, when you come together in church, I hear that there are divisions among you, and in part I believe it.

18  First of all, indeed, I hear that when you assemble together in the church, there are schisms among you. And I believe this, in part.

11:19  For there must also be sects among you, in order that those who are approved may become recognized among you.

19  For controversies are bound to be among you, that those who are approved may be made manifest among you.

11:20  Therefore when you assemble in the same [place], it is not to eat YHWH's Supper.

20  And so, when you assemble together as one, it is no longer in order to eat the Lord’s supper.

11:21  For when you eat, each one takes first his own supper, and one goes hungry and another is drunk!

21  For each one first takes his own supper to eat. And as a result, one person is hungry, while another is inebriated.

21  But some men eat their supper before others: and so it happens that one is hungry and another is drunken.

11:22  What? Do you not have houses to eat and drink in? Or do you despise the church of God, and disgrace those who do not have? What shall I say to you? Shall I praise you in this? I do not praise you!

22  What, have ye not houses to eat and to drink in? or despise ye the church of God, and put them to shame that have not? What shall I say to you? shall I praise you? In this I praise you not.

22  Do you not have houses, in which to eat and drink? Or do you have such contempt for the Church of God that you would confound those who do not have such contempt? What should I say to you? Should I praise you? I am not praising you in this.

11:23  For I received from YHWH that which I also delivered unto you: that the Lord Jesus, during the night in which He was betrayed, took bread;

23  For I have received from the Lord what I have also delivered to you: that the Lord Jesus, on the same night that he was handed over, took bread,

23  For I myself received from our LORD that which I also delivered to you, That our LORD Jesus on that very night in which he was betrayed took bread

11:24  and having given thanks, He broke it and said, "Take, eat; this is My body which has been broken for you; do this in remembrance of Me."

24  and when he had given thanks, he brake it, and said, This is my body, which is for you: this do in remembrance of me.

24  and giving thanks, he broke it, and said: “Take and eat. This is my body, which shall be given up for you. Do this in remembrance of me.”

11:25  Likewise He also took the cup after supper, saying, "This cup is the new covenant in My blood. This do, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of Me."

25  After the same manner also he took the cup, when he had supped, saying, This cup is the new testament in my blood: this do ye, as oft as ye drink it, in remembrance of me.

11:26  For as often as you eat this bread and drink this cup, you proclaim YHWH's death until He comes.

26  For whenever you eat this bread and drink this cup, you proclaim the death of the Lord, until he returns.

11:27  Therefore whoever eats this bread or drinks this cup of YHWH irreverently will be guilty of the body of the Lord and of the blood of the Lord.

27  And so, whoever eats this bread, or drinks from the cup of the Lord, unworthily, shall be liable of the body and blood of the Lord.

27  Wherefore whosoever shall eat this bread, and drink this cup of the Lord, unworthily, shall be guilty of the body and blood of the Lord.

11:28  But let a man examine himself, and in this way let him eat from the bread and drink from the cup.

28  For this reason, let a man examine himself, and so eat of this bread, and drink of this cup.

11:29  For he that eats and drinks irreverently eats and drinks judgment to himself, not judging correctly the body of YHWH.

29  For whoever eats and drinks unworthily, eats and drinks a sentence against himself, not discerning it to be the body of the Lord.

29  For he that eateth and drinketh unworthily, eateth and drinketh damnation to himself, not discerning the Lord's body.

11:30  Because of this many among you are weak and sick, and many have died.

30  As a result, many are weak and sick among you, and many have fallen asleep.

30  This is the reason many are sick and ill among you, and many are dying.

11:31  For if we judge ourselves correctly, we would not be judged.

31  But if we discerned ourselves, we should not be judged.

31  But if we ourselves were discerning, then certainly we would not be judged.

11:32  But when we are judged, we are disciplined by YHWH, in order that we may not be condemned along with the world.

32  Yet when we are judged, we are being corrected by the Lord, so that we might not be condemned along with this world.

11:33  Therefore, my brothers, when you come together to eat, wait for one another.

33  And so, my brothers, when you assemble together to eat, be attentive to one another.

11:34  But if anyone is hungry, let him eat at home, lest you come together for judgment. And the rest I will put in order when I come.

34  If anyone is hungry, let him eat at home, so that you may not assemble together unto judgment. As for the rest, I will set it in order when I arrive.

34  And if any man hunger, let him eat at home; so that you may not come together unto condemnation. As to the rest of the things I will instruct you when I come.
