1 Corinthians 10:1-10 ▼

1 For I do not want you⁺ to be ignorant, brothers, that our fathers were all under the cloud and all passed through the sea.

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

3 and all ate the same spiritual food,

4 and all drank the same spiritual drink; for they were drinking from the spiritual rock accompanying them, and the rock was Christ.

5 But God was not well pleased in most of them, for they were strewn in the wilderness.

6 Now these things became types of us, for us not to be desirers of evil things, as those also desired.

7 And do not become idolaters, as some of them, just as it has been written: “The people sat down to eat and to drink, and rose up to play.”

8 And we should not commit sexual immorality, as some of them committed sexual immorality, and twenty-three thousand fell in one day.

9 And we should not test Christ, as some of them tested, and were destroyed by serpents.

10 And do not grumble, as some of them grumbled, and were destroyed by the destroyer.
