Προς Κορινθιους Α΄ 10

1 Οὐ θέλω (γὰρ *N(k)O*) ὑμᾶς ἀγνοεῖν, ἀδελφοί, ὅτι οἱ πατέρες ἡμῶν πάντες ὑπὸ τὴν νεφέλην ἦσαν καὶ πάντες διὰ τῆς θαλάσσης διῆλθον,

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

2 καὶ πάντες εἰς τὸν Μωϋσῆν (ἐβαπτίσθησαν *N(k)O*) ἐν τῇ νεφέλῃ καὶ ἐν τῇ θαλάσσῃ

and all were baptised unto Moses in the cloud and in the sea;

3 καὶ πάντες τὸ αὐτὸ πνευματικὸν βρῶμα ἔφαγον

and all ate the same spiritual food,

4 καὶ πάντες τὸ αὐτὸ πνευματικὸν ἔπιον πόμα, ἔπινον γὰρ ἐκ πνευματικῆς ἀκολουθούσης πέτρας, ἡ πέτρα δὲ ἦν ὁ Χριστός·

and all drank the same spiritual drink, for they drank of a spiritual rock which followed [them]: (now the rock was the Christ; )

5 ἀλλ᾽ οὐκ ἐν τοῖς πλείοσιν αὐτῶν εὐδόκησεν ὁ θεός· κατεστρώθησαν γὰρ ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ.

yet God was not pleased with the most of them, for they were strewed in the desert.

6 ταῦτα δὲ τύποι ἡμῶν ἐγενήθησαν εἰς τὸ μὴ εἶναι ἡμᾶς ἐπιθυμητὰς κακῶν καθὼς κἀκεῖνοι κἀκεῖνοι ἐπεθύμησαν.

But these things happened [as] types of us, that we should not be lusters after evil things, as they also lusted.

7 μηδὲ εἰδωλολάτραι γίνεσθε καθώς τινες αὐτῶν (ὥσπερ *N(k)O*) γέγραπται· ἐκάθισεν ὁ λαὸς φαγεῖν καὶ πεῖν καὶ ἀνέστησαν παίζειν.

Neither be ye idolaters, as some of them; as it is written, The people sat down to eat and to drink, and rose up to play.

8 μηδὲ πορνεύωμεν καθώς τινες αὐτῶν ἐπόρνευσαν, καὶ ἔπεσαν (ἕν *k*) μιᾷ ἡμέρᾳ εἴκοσι τρεῖς χιλιάδες.

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

9 μηδὲ ἐκπειράζωμεν τὸν (Χριστόν *NK(O)*) καθώς (καί *k*) τινες αὐτῶν ἐπείρασαν, καὶ ὑπὸ τῶν ὄφεων (ἀπώλλυντο. *N(k)O*)

Neither let us tempt the Christ, as some of them tempted, and perished by serpents.

10 μηδὲ γογγύζετε (καθάπερ *N(k)O*) (καί *k*) τινὲς αὐτῶν ἐγόγγυσαν, καὶ ἀπώλοντο ὑπὸ τοῦ ὀλοθρευτοῦ.

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

11 ταῦτα δὲ (πάντα *K*) (τυπικῶς συνέβαινεν *N(k)O*) ἐκείνοις, ἐγράφη δὲ πρὸς νουθεσίαν ἡμῶν εἰς οὓς τὰ τέλη τῶν αἰώνων (κατήντηκεν. *N(k)O*) (aiōn g165)

Now all these things happened to them [as] types, and have been written for our admonition, upon whom the ends of the ages are come. (aiōn g165)

12 Ὥστε ὁ δοκῶν ἑστάναι βλεπέτω μὴ πέσῃ.

So that let him that thinks that he stands 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 (ὑμᾶς *k*) ὑπενεγκεῖν.

No temptation has taken you but such as is according to man's nature; and God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above what ye are able [to bear], but will with the temptation make the issue also, so that [ye] should be able to bear [it].

14 Διόπερ, ἀγαπητοί μου, φεύγετε ἀπὸ τῆς εἰδωλολατρίας.

Wherefore, my beloved, flee from idolatry.

15 ὡς φρονίμοις λέγω, κρίνατε ὑμεῖς ὅ φημι.

I speak as to intelligent [persons]: do ye judge 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;

The cup of blessing which we bless, is it not [the] communion of the blood of the Christ? The bread which we break, is it not [the] communion of the body of the Christ?

17 ὅτι εἷς ἄρτος ἓν σῶμα οἱ πολλοί ἐσμεν· οἱ γὰρ πάντες ἐκ τοῦ ἑνὸς ἄρτου μετέχομεν.

Because we, [being] many, are one loaf, one body; for we all partake of that one loaf.

18 βλέπετε τὸν Ἰσραὴλ κατὰ σάρκα· (οὐχ *N(k)O*) οἱ ἐσθίοντες τὰς θυσίας κοινωνοὶ τοῦ θυσιαστηρίου εἰσίν;

See Israel according to flesh: are not they who eat the sacrifices in communion with the altar?

19 Τί οὖν φημι; ὅτι εἰδωλόθυτόν τί ἐστιν ἢ ὅτι εἴδωλόν τί ἐστιν;

What then do I say? that what is sacrificed to an idol is anything, or that an idol is anything?

20 ἀλλ᾽ ὅτι ἃ (θύουσιν *N(k)O*) (τὰ *ko*) (ἔθνη, *KO*) δαιμονίοις καὶ οὐ θεῷ (θύουσιν· *N(k)O*) οὐ θέλω δὲ ὑμᾶς κοινωνοὺς τῶν δαιμονίων γίνεσθαι.

But that what [the nations] sacrifice they sacrifice to demons, and not to God. Now I do not wish you to be in communion with demons.

21 οὐ δύνασθε ποτήριον κυρίου πίνειν καὶ ποτήριον δαιμονίων· οὐ δύνασθε τραπέζης κυρίου μετέχειν καὶ τραπέζης δαιμονίων.

Ye cannot drink [the] Lord's cup, and [the] cup of demons: ye cannot partake of [the] Lord's table, and of [the] table of demons.

22 ἢ παραζηλοῦμεν τὸν κύριον; μὴ ἰσχυρότεροι αὐτοῦ ἐσμεν;

Do we provoke the Lord to jealousy? are we stronger than he?

23 Πάντα (μοι *K*) ἔξεστιν ἀλλ᾽ οὐ πάντα συμφέρει· πάντα (μοι *K*) ἔξεστιν ἀλλ᾽ οὐ πάντα οἰκοδομεῖ.

All things are lawful, but all are not profitable; all things are lawful, but all do not edify.

24 μηδεὶς τὸ ἑαυτοῦ ζητείτω ἀλλὰ τὸ τοῦ ἑτέρου (ἕκαστος. *K*)

Let no one seek his own [advantage], but that of the other.

25 Πᾶν τὸ ἐν μακέλλῳ πωλούμενον ἐσθίετε μηδὲν ἀνακρίνοντες διὰ τὴν συνείδησιν·

Everything sold in the shambles eat, making no inquiry for conscience sake.

26 τοῦ κυρίου γὰρ ἡ γῆ καὶ τὸ πλήρωμα αὐτῆς.

For the earth [is] the Lord's and its fulness.

27 Εἴ (δέ *k*) τις καλεῖ ὑμᾶς τῶν ἀπίστων καὶ θέλετε πορεύεσθαι, πᾶν τὸ παρατιθέμενον ὑμῖν ἐσθίετε μηδὲν ἀνακρίνοντες διὰ τὴν συνείδησιν·

But if any one of the unbelievers invite you, and ye are minded to go, all that is set before you eat, making no inquiry for conscience sake.

28 ἐὰν δέ τις ὑμῖν εἴπῃ· τοῦτο (ἱερόθυτόν *N(k)O*) ἐστιν, μὴ ἐσθίετε δι᾽ ἐκεῖνον τὸν μηνύσαντα καὶ τὴν συνείδησιν· (τοῦ γὰρ κυρίου ἡ γῆ καὶ τὸ πλήρωμα αὐτῆς. *K*)

But if any one say to you, This is offered to holy purposes, do not eat, for his sake that pointed it out, and conscience sake;

29 συνείδησιν δὲ λέγω οὐχὶ τὴν ἑαυτοῦ ἀλλὰ τὴν τοῦ ἑτέρου. ἱνατί ἱνατί γὰρ ἡ ἐλευθερία μου κρίνεται ὑπὸ ἄλλης συνειδήσεως;

but conscience, I mean, not thine own, but that of the other: for why is my liberty judged by another conscience?

30 εἰ (δὲ *k*) ἐγὼ χάριτι μετέχω, τί βλασφημοῦμαι ὑπὲρ οὗ ἐγὼ εὐχαριστῶ;

If I partake with thanksgiving, why am I spoken evil of for what I give thanks for?

31 εἴτε οὖν ἐσθίετε εἴτε πίνετε εἴτε τι ποιεῖτε, πάντα εἰς δόξαν θεοῦ ποιεῖτε.

Whether therefore ye eat, or drink, or whatever ye do, do all things to God's glory.

32 ἀπρόσκοποι καὶ Ἰουδαίοις γίνεσθε καὶ Ἕλλησιν καὶ τῇ ἐκκλησίᾳ τοῦ θεοῦ,

Give no occasion to stumbling, whether to Jews, or Greeks, or the assembly of God.

33 καθὼς κἀγὼ κἀγὼ πάντα πᾶσιν ἀρέσκω μὴ ζητῶν τὸ ἐμαυτοῦ (σύμφορον *N(k)O*) ἀλλὰ τὸ τῶν πολλῶν ἵνα σωθῶσιν.

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