1 Corinthians 10

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

Brethren I wolde not that ye shuld be ignoraunt of this how yt oure fathers were all vnder a cloude and all passed thorow the see

2 and were all baptized into Moses in the cloud and in the sea;

and were all baptised vnder Moses in the cloude and in the see:

3 and all ate the same spiritual food;

and dyd all eate of one spirituall meate

4 and all drank the same spiritual drink. For they drank of a spiritual rock that followed them, and the rock was Christ.

and did all drincke of one maner of spirituall drincke. And they dranke of that spretuall rocke that folowed them which rocke was Christ.

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

But in many of them had god no delite. For they were overthrowen in the wildernes.

6 Now these things were our examples, to the intent we should not lust after evil things, as they also lusted.

These are ensamples to vs that we shuld not lust after evyll thinges as they lusted

7 Neither be idolaters, as some of them were. As it is written, "The people sat down to eat and drink, and rose up to play."

Nether be ye worshippers of Images as were some of them accordynge as it is written: The people sate doune to eate and drynke and rose vp agayne to playe.

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

Nether let vs comit fornicacion as some of them committed fornicacion and were destroyed in one daye. xxiii. thousande.

9 Neither let us test the Christ, as some of them tested, and perished by the serpents.

Nether let vs tempte Christ as some of them tempted and were destroyed of serpentes.

10 Neither grumble, as some of them also grumbled, and perished by the destroyer.

Nether murmure ye as some of them murmured and were destroyed of ye destroyer

11 Now these things happened to them by way of example, and they were written for our admonition, on whom the ends of the ages have come. (aiōn g165)

All these thinges happened vnto them for ensamples and were written to put vs in remembraunce whom the endes of the worlde are come apon. (aiōn g165)

12 Therefore let him who thinks he stands be careful that he does not fall.

Wherfore let hym that thynketh he stodeth take hede least he fall.

13 No temptation has taken you except what is common to humanity. God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted above what you are able, but will with the temptation also make the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it.

There hath none other temptacion taken you but soche as foloweth ye nature of ma. But God is faythfull which shall not suffer you to be tempted above youre strenght: but shall in the myddes of the temptacion make awaye to escape out.

14 Therefore, my beloved, flee from idolatry.

Wherfore my deare beloued fle from worshippynge of ydols.

15 I speak as to wise people. Judge what I say.

I speake as vnto them which have discrecion Iudge ye what I saye.

16 The cup of blessing which we bless, is it not a sharing of the blood of Christ? The bread which we break, is it not a sharing of the body of Christ?

Ys not the cuppe of blessinge which we blesse partakynge of ye bloude of Christ? ys not the breed which we breake partetakynge of the body of Christ?

17 Because there is one loaf of bread, we, who are many, are one body; for we all partake of the one loaf of bread.

because that we (though we be many) yet are one breed and one bodye in as moch as we all are partetakers of one breed.

18 Consider Israel according to the flesh. Do not those who eat the sacrifices participate in the altar?

Beholde Israhell which walketh carnally. Are not they which eate of the sacrifyse partetakers of the aultre?

19 What am I saying then? That a thing sacrificed to idols is anything, or that an idol is anything?

What saye I then? that the ymage is eny thinge? or that it which is offered to ymages is eny thinge?

20 But I say that the things which pagans sacrifice, they sacrifice to demons, and not to God, and I do not desire that you would have fellowship with demons.

Nay but I saye that those thinges which the gentyle offer they offer to devyls and not to god. And I wolde not that ye shuld have fellishippe with ye devils

21 You cannot both drink the cup of the Lord and the cup of demons. You cannot both partake of the table of the Lord, and of the table of demons.

Ye canot drincke of the cup of the lorde and of yt cup of ye deuyls. Ye cnanot be partetakers of the lordes table and of the table of deuelles.

22 Or do we provoke the Lord to jealousy? Are we stronger than he?

Ether shall we provoke the lorde? Or are we stronger then he? All thynges are laufull vnto me but all thynges are not expedient.

23 "All things are lawful," but not all things are profitable. "All things are lawful," but not all things build up.

All thynges are lawfull to me but all thinges edifye not.

24 Let no one seek his own, but his neighbor's good.

Let no man seke his awne proffet: but let every man seke anothers welthe.

25 Whatever is sold in the butcher shop, eat, asking no question for the sake of conscience,

What soever is solde in the market that eate and axe no questions for conscience sake

26 for "the earth is the Lord's, and its fullness."

For the erth is the lordis and all that therein is.

27 But if one of those who do not believe invites you to a meal, and you are inclined to go, eat whatever is set before you, asking no questions for the sake of conscience.

Yf eny of them which beleve not bid you to a feest and yf ye be disposed to goo what soever is seet before you: eate axinge no question for conscience sake.

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 the sake of conscience.

But and yf eny man saye vnto you: this is dedicate vnto ydols eate not of it for his sake that shewed it and for hurtynge of conscience.

29 Conscience, I say, not your own, but the other's conscience. For why is my liberty judged by another conscience?

Conscience I saye not thyne: but the coscieuce of that other. For why shuld my liberte be iudged of another manes conscience:

30 If I partake with thankfulness, why am I denounced for that for which I give thanks?

For yf I take my parte with thakes: why am I evell spoken of for that thynge wherfore I geve thankes.

31 Whether therefore you eat, or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God.

Whether therfore ye eate or dryncke or what soever ye do do all to the prayse of God.

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

Se that ye geve occasion of evell nether to ye Iewes nor yet to the gentyls nether to ye cogregacion of god:

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

euen as I please all men in all thinges not sekynge myne awne proffet but the proffet of many that they myght be saved. Folowe me as I do Christ.
