Οὐ θέλω γὰρ ὑμᾶς ἀγνοεῖν ἀδελφοί ὅτι οἱ πατέρες ἡμῶν πάντες ὑπὸ τὴν νεφέλην ἦσαν καὶ πάντες διὰ τῆς θαλάσσης διῆλθον |
I do not want you to be unaware, brothers, that our forefathers were all under the cloud, and that they all passed through the sea. |
Moreover, brethren, I would not that ye should be ignorant, how that all our fathers were under the cloud, and all passed through the sea; |
|
| 2 |
καὶ πάντες εἰς τὸν Μωϋσῆν ἐβαπτίσαντο ἐν τῇ νεφέλῃ καὶ ἐν τῇ θαλάσσῃ |
They were all baptized into Moses in the cloud and in the sea. |
And were all baptized unto Moses in the cloud and in the sea; |
|
| 3 |
καὶ πάντες τὸ αὐτὸ πνευματικὸν βρῶμα ἔφαγον |
They all ate the same spiritual food |
And did all eat the same spiritual meat; |
|
| 4 |
καὶ πάντες τὸ αὐτὸ πνευματικὸν ἔπιον πόμα ἔπινον γὰρ ἐκ πνευματικῆς ἀκολουθούσης πέτρας ἡ πέτρα δὲ ἦν ὁ Χριστός |
and drank the same spiritual drink; for they drank from the spiritual rock that accompanied them, and that rock was Christ. |
And did all drink the same spiritual drink: for they drank of that spiritual Rock that followed them: and that Rock was Christ. |
|
| 5 |
ἀλλ’ οὐκ ἐν τοῖς πλείοσιν αὐτῶν εὐδόκησεν ὁ Θεός κατεστρώθησαν γὰρ ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ |
Nevertheless, God was not pleased with most of them, for they were struck down in the wilderness. |
But with many of them God was not well pleased: for they were overthrown in the wilderness. |
|
| 6 |
Ταῦτα δὲ τύποι ἡμῶν ἐγενήθησαν εἰς τὸ μὴ εἶναι ἡμᾶς ἐπιθυμητὰς κακῶν καθὼς κἀκεῖνοι ἐπεθύμησαν |
These things took place as examples to keep us from craving evil things as they did. |
Now these things were our examples, to the intent we should not lust after evil things, as they also lusted. |
|
| 7 |
μηδὲ εἰδωλολάτραι γίνεσθε καθώς τινες αὐτῶν ὥσπερ γέγραπται Ἐκάθισεν ὁ λαὸς φαγεῖν καὶ πεῖν καὶ ἀνέστησαν παίζειν |
Do not be idolaters, as some of them were. As it is written: “The people sat down to eat and to drink, and got up to indulge in revelry.” |
Neither be ye idolaters, as [were] some of them; as it is written, The people sat down to eat and drink, and rose up to play. |
|
| 8 |
μηδὲ πορνεύωμεν καθώς τινες αὐτῶν ἐπόρνευσαν καὶ ἔπεσαν μιᾷ ἡμέρᾳ εἰκοσι τρεῖς χιλιάδες |
We should not commit sexual immorality, as some of them did, and in one day twenty-three thousand of them died. |
Neither let us commit fornication, as some of them committed, and fell in one day three and twenty thousand. |
|
| 9 |
μηδὲ ἐκπειράζωμεν τὸν Χριστόν* καθώς τινες αὐτῶν ἐπείρασαν καὶ ὑπὸ τῶν ὄφεων ἀπώλλυντο |
We should not test Christ, as some of them did, and were killed by snakes. |
Neither let us tempt Christ, as some of them also tempted, and were destroyed of serpents. |
|
| 10 |
μηδὲ γογγύζετε καθάπερ τινὲς αὐτῶν ἐγόγγυσαν καὶ ἀπώλοντο ὑπὸ τοῦ ὀλοθρευτοῦ |
And do not complain, as some of them did, and were killed by the destroying angel. |
Neither murmur ye, as some of them also murmured, and were destroyed of the destroyer. |
|
| 11 |
Ταῦτα δὲ τυπικῶς συνέβαινεν ἐκείνοις ἐγράφη δὲ πρὸς νουθεσίαν ἡμῶν εἰς οὓς τὰ τέλη τῶν αἰώνων κατήντηκεν |
Now these things happened to them as examples and were written down as warnings for us, on whom the fulfillment of the ages has come. |
Now all these things happened unto them for ensamples: and they are written for our admonition, upon whom the ends of the world are come. |
|
| 12 |
Ὥστε ὁ δοκῶν ἑστάναι βλεπέτω μὴ πέσῃ |
So the one who thinks he is standing firm should be careful not to fall. |
Wherefore let him that thinketh he standeth take heed lest he fall. |
|
| 13 |
πειρασμὸς ὑμᾶς οὐκ εἴληφεν εἰ μὴ ἀνθρώπινος πιστὸς δὲ ὁ Θεός ὃς οὐκ ἐάσει ὑμᾶς πειρασθῆναι ὑπὲρ ὃ δύνασθε ἀλλὰ ποιήσει σὺν τῷ πειρασμῷ καὶ τὴν ἔκβασιν τοῦ δύνασθαι ὑπενεγκεῖν |
No temptation has seized you except what is common to man. And God is faithful; He will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, He will also provide an escape, so that you can stand up under it. |
There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God [is] faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear [it]. |
|
| 14 |
Διόπερ ἀγαπητοί μου φεύγετε ἀπὸ τῆς εἰδωλολατρίας |
Therefore, my beloved, flee from idolatry. |
Wherefore, my dearly beloved, flee from idolatry. |
|
| 15 |
ὡς φρονίμοις λέγω κρίνατε ὑμεῖς ὅ φημι |
I speak to reasonable people; judge for yourselves what I say. |
I speak as to wise men; judge ye what I say. |
|
| 16 |
Τὸ ποτήριον τῆς εὐλογίας ὃ εὐλογοῦμεν οὐχὶ κοινωνία ἐστὶν τοῦ αἵματος τοῦ Χριστοῦ τὸν ἄρτον ὃν κλῶμεν οὐχὶ κοινωνία τοῦ σώματος τοῦ Χριστοῦ ἐστιν |
Is not the cup of blessing that we bless a participation in the blood of Christ? And is not the bread that we break a participation in the body of Christ? |
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? |
|
| 17 |
ὅτι εἷς ἄρτος ἓν σῶμα οἱ πολλοί ἐσμεν οἱ γὰρ πάντες ἐκ τοῦ ἑνὸς ἄρτου μετέχομεν |
Because there is one loaf, we who are many are one body; for we all partake of the one loaf. |
For we [being] many are one bread, [and] one body: for we are all partakers of that one bread. |
|
| 18 |
βλέπετε τὸν Ἰσραὴλ κατὰ σάρκα οὐχ οἱ ἐσθίοντες τὰς θυσίας κοινωνοὶ τοῦ θυσιαστηρίου εἰσίν |
Consider the people of Israel: Are not those who eat the sacrifices fellow partakers in the altar? |
Behold Israel after the flesh: are not they which eat of the sacrifices partakers of the altar? |
|
| 19 |
Τί οὖν φημι ὅτι εἰδωλόθυτόν τί ἐστιν ἢ ὅτι εἴδωλόν τί ἐστιν |
Am I suggesting, then, that food sacrificed to an idol is anything, or that an idol is anything? |
What say I then? that the idol is any thing, or that which is offered in sacrifice to idols is any thing? |
|
| 20 |
ἀλλ’ ὅτι ἃ θύουσιν (τὰ ἔθνη) δαιμονίοις καὶ οὐ Θεῷ θύουσιν οὐ θέλω δὲ ὑμᾶς κοινωνοὺς τῶν δαιμονίων γίνεσθαι |
No, but the sacrifices of pagans are offered to demons, not to God. And I do not want you to be participants with demons. |
But I [say], that the things which the Gentiles sacrifice, they sacrifice to devils, and not to God: and I would not that ye should have fellowship with devils. |
|
| 21 |
οὐ δύνασθε ποτήριον Κυρίου πίνειν καὶ ποτήριον δαιμονίων οὐ δύνασθε τραπέζης Κυρίου μετέχειν καὶ τραπέζης δαιμονίων |
You cannot drink the cup of the Lord and the cup of demons too; you cannot partake in the table of the Lord and the table of demons too. |
Ye cannot drink the cup of the Lord, and the cup of devils: ye cannot be partakers of the Lord's table, and of the table of devils. |
|
| 22 |
ἢ παραζηλοῦμεν τὸν Κύριον μὴ ἰσχυρότεροι αὐτοῦ ἐσμεν |
Are we trying to provoke the Lord to jealousy? Are we stronger than He? |
Do we provoke the Lord to jealousy? are we stronger than he? |
|
| 23 |
Πάντα ἔξεστιν ἀλλ’ οὐ πάντα συμφέρει Πάντα ἔξεστιν ἀλλ’ οὐ πάντα οἰκοδομεῖ |
“Everything is permissible,” but not everything is beneficial. “Everything is permissible, but not everything is edifying. |
All things are lawful for me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me, but all things edify not. |
|
| 24 |
μηδεὶς τὸ ἑαυτοῦ ζητείτω ἀλλὰ τὸ τοῦ ἑτέρου |
No one should seek his own good, but the good of others. |
Let no man seek his own, but every man another's [wealth]. |
|
| 25 |
Πᾶν τὸ ἐν μακέλλῳ πωλούμενον ἐσθίετε μηδὲν ἀνακρίνοντες διὰ τὴν συνείδησιν |
Eat anything sold in the meat market without raising questions of conscience, |
Whatsoever is sold in the shambles, [that] eat, asking no question for conscience sake: |
|
| 26 |
Τοῦ Κυρίου γὰρ Ἡ γῆ καὶ τὸ πλήρωμα αὐτῆς |
for, “The earth is the Lord’s, and the fullness thereof.” |
For the earth [is] the Lord's, and the fulness thereof. |
|
| 27 |
Εἴ τις καλεῖ ὑμᾶς τῶν ἀπίστων καὶ θέλετε πορεύεσθαι πᾶν τὸ παρατιθέμενον ὑμῖν ἐσθίετε μηδὲν ἀνακρίνοντες διὰ τὴν συνείδησιν |
If an unbeliever invites you to a meal and you want to go, eat anything set before you without raising questions of conscience. |
<1161> If any of them that believe not bid you [to a feast], and ye be disposed to go; whatsoever is set before you, eat, asking no question for conscience sake. |
|
| 28 |
ἐὰν δέ τις ὑμῖν εἴπῃ Τοῦτο ἱερόθυτόν ἐστιν μὴ ἐσθίετε δι’ ἐκεῖνον τὸν μηνύσαντα καὶ τὴν συνείδησιν ⧼Tοῦ γὰρ κυρίου ἡ γῆ καὶ τὸ πλήρωμα αὐτῆς⧽ |
But if someone tells you, “This food was offered to idols, then do not eat it, for the sake of the one who told you and for the sake of conscience— |
But if any man say unto you, This is offered in sacrifice unto idols, eat not for his sake that shewed it, and for conscience sake: for the earth [is] the Lord's, and the fulness thereof: |
|
| 29 |
συνείδησιν δὲ λέγω οὐχὶ τὴν ἑαυτοῦ ἀλλὰ τὴν τοῦ ἑτέρου ἵνα‿ τί γὰρ ἡ ἐλευθερία μου κρίνεται ὑπὸ ἄλλης συνειδήσεως |
the other one’s conscience, I mean, not your own. For why should my freedom be determined by someone else’s conscience? |
Conscience, I say, not thine own, but of the other: for why is my liberty judged of another [man's] conscience? |
|
| 30 |
εἰ ἐγὼ χάριτι μετέχω τί βλασφημοῦμαι ὑπὲρ οὗ ἐγὼ εὐχαριστῶ |
If I partake in the meal with thankfulness, why am I denounced because of that for which I give thanks? |
For if I by grace be a partaker, why am I evil spoken of for that for which I give thanks? |
|
| 31 |
Εἴτε οὖν ἐσθίετε εἴτε πίνετε εἴτε τι ποιεῖτε πάντα εἰς δόξαν Θεοῦ ποιεῖτε |
So whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it all to the glory of God. |
Whether therefore ye eat, or drink, or whatsoever ye do, do all to the glory of God. |
|
| 32 |
ἀπρόσκοποι καὶ Ἰουδαίοις γίνεσθε καὶ Ἕλλησιν καὶ τῇ ἐκκλησίᾳ τοῦ Θεοῦ |
Do not become a stumbling block, whether to Jews or Greeks or the church of God— |
Give none offence, neither to the Jews, nor to the Gentiles, nor to the church of God: |
|
| 33 |
καθὼς κἀγὼ πάντα πᾶσιν ἀρέσκω μὴ ζητῶν τὸ ἐμαυτοῦ σύμφορον ἀλλὰ τὸ τῶν πολλῶν ἵνα σωθῶσιν |
as I also try to please everyone in all I do. For I am not seeking my own good, but the good of many, that they may be saved. |
Even as I please all [men] in all [things], not seeking mine own profit, but the [profit ] of many, that they may be saved. |
