1 Corinthians 10
Nestle 1904 Greek New Testament · Berean Standard Bible
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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 drink and got up to indulge in revelry (note: Or to play; Exodus 32:6).”
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.
μηδὲ ἐκπειράζωμεν τὸν Χριστόν καθώς τινες αὐτῶν ἐπείρασαν καὶ ὑπὸ τῶν ὄφεων ἀπώλλυντο
We should not test Christ (note: WH, NE, and Tischendorf test the Lord), as some of them did, and were killed by snakes.
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 (note: Literally the destroyer).
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.
Ὥστε ὁ δοκῶν ἑστάναι βλεπέτω μὴ πέσῃ
So the one who thinks he is standing firm should be careful not to fall.
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.
ὡς φρονίμοις λέγω κρίνατε ὑμεῖς ὅ φημι
I speak to reasonable people; judge for yourselves what I say.
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?
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.
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?
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?
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.
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.
ἢ παραζηλοῦμεν τὸν Κύριον μὴ ἰσχυρότεροι αὐτοῦ ἐσμεν
Are we trying to provoke the Lord to jealousy? Are we stronger than He?
Πάντα ἔξεστιν ἀλλ’ οὐ πάντα συμφέρει Πάντα ἔξεστιν ἀλλ’ οὐ πάντα οἰκοδομεῖ
“Everything is permissible (note: Or “All things are lawful,” twice in this verse),” but not everything is beneficial. “Everything is permissible,” but not everything is edifying.
μηδεὶς τὸ ἑαυτοῦ ζητείτω ἀλλὰ τὸ τοῦ ἑτέρου
No one should seek his own good, but the good of others.
Πᾶν τὸ ἐν μακέλλῳ πωλούμενον ἐσθίετε μηδὲν ἀνακρίνοντες διὰ τὴν συνείδησιν
Eat anything sold in the meat market without raising questions of conscience,
Τοῦ Κυρίου γὰρ Ἡ γῆ καὶ τὸ πλήρωμα αὐτῆς
for, “The earth is the Lord’s, and the fullness thereof (note: Psalm 24:1).”
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.
ἐὰν δέ τις ὑμῖν εἴπῃ Τοῦτο ἱερόθυτόν ἐστιν μὴ ἐσθίετε δι’ ἐκεῖνον τὸν μηνύσαντα καὶ τὴν συνείδησιν
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 (note: BYZ and TR and for the sake of conscience—for the earth is the Lord’s, and the fullness thereof—)—
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?
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?
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.
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—
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.
