1 For I would not have you ignorant, brethren, that all our fathers were under the cloud, and all passed through the sea;
2 and all were baptised unto 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 drank of a spiritual rock which followed {them}: (now the rock was the Christ;)
5 yet God was not pleased with the most of them, for they were strewed in the desert.
6 But these things happened {as} types of us, that we should not be lusters after evil things, as they also lusted.
7 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 Neither let us commit fornication, as some of them committed fornication, and fell in one day three and twenty thousand.
9 Neither let us tempt the Christ, as some of them tempted, and perished by serpents.
10 Neither murmur ye, as some of them murmured, and perished by the destroyer.
11 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.
12 So that let him that thinks that he stands take heed lest he fall.
13 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 Wherefore, my beloved, flee from idolatry.
15 I speak as to intelligent {persons}: do *ye* judge what I say.
16 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 Because we, {being} many, are one loaf, one body; for we all partake of that one loaf.
18 See Israel according to flesh: are not they who eat the sacrifices in communion with the altar?
19 What then do I say? that what is sacrificed to an idol is anything, or that an idol is anything?
20 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 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 Do we provoke the Lord to jealousy? are we stronger than he?
23 All things are lawful, but all are not profitable; all things are lawful, but all do not edify.
24 Let no one seek his own {advantage}, but that of the other.
25 Everything sold in the shambles eat, making no inquiry for conscience sake.
26 For the earth {is} the Lord's and its fulness.
27 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 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 but conscience, I mean, not thine own, but that of the other: for why is my liberty judged by another conscience?
30 If *I* partake with thanksgiving, why am I spoken evil of for what *I* give thanks for?
31 Whether therefore ye eat, or drink, or whatever ye do, do all things to God's glory.
32 Give no occasion to stumbling, whether to Jews, or Greeks, or the assembly of God.
33 Even as *I* also please all in all things; not seeking my own profit, but that of the many, that they may be saved.
1 弟兄们, 我不愿意你们不知道, 我们的祖宗都曾经在云下, 都曾经从海中经过,
2 都曾经在云里在海里受洗归于摩西。
3 他们都吃了一样的灵粮,
4 都喝了一样的灵水; 他们所喝的, 是从那随着他们的灵磐石那里来的, 这磐石就是基督。
5 但他们大多数的人, 都得不到 神的喜悦, 因此他们都死在旷野。
6 这些事都是我们的鉴戒, 叫我们不要贪恋恶事, 像他们那样。
7 你们也不可拜偶像, 像他们有些人那样; 正如经上所记: "人民坐下吃喝, 起来玩乐。"
8 我们也不可淫乱, 像他们有些人那样, 一天就死了二万三千人。
9 我们也不可试探主, 像他们有些人那样, 结果就被蛇咬死了。
10 你们也不可发怨言, 像他们有些人那样, 就被那毁灭者所灭。
11 这些事发生在他们身上, 作为鉴戒, 并且记下来, 为了要警戒我们这些末世的人。
12 所以, 那自以为站得稳的, 应当谨慎, 免得跌倒。
13 你们所受的试探, 无非是人受得起的; 神是信实的, 他必不容许你们受试探过于你们抵受得住的, 而且在受试探的时候, 必定给你们开一条出路, 使你们能忍受得住。
14 所以, 我所亲爱的, 你们要远避拜偶像的事。
15 我是对明白事理的人说的, 我所说的你们要自己判断。
16 我们为福杯祝祷的时候, 难道不是共享基督的血吗?我们擘饼的时候, 难道不是共享基督的身体吗?
17 因为事实上只有一个饼, 我们人数虽多, 还是一个身体, 因为我们都是分享同一个饼。
18 你们看看以色列人, 那些吃祭物的不就是与祭坛有分吗?
19 我说的是什么意思呢?偶像算得什么, 还是祭过偶像的食物算得什么?
20 我是说, 教外人所祭的是鬼, 不是献给 神; 我却不愿意你们与鬼来往。
21 你们不能喝主的杯又喝鬼的杯, 你们不能参加主的筵席又参加鬼的筵席。
22 难道我们要激起主的忿怒吗?我们比他更强吗?
23 什么事情都可以作, 但不是都有益处。什么事情都可以作, 但不是都能造就人。
24 人不要求自己的好处, 却要求别人的好处。
25 肉食市场所卖的一切, 你们只管吃, 不要为了良心的缘故问什么,
26 因为地和地上所充满的都是属于主的。
27 如果有不信的人邀请你们吃饭, 你们也愿意去, 凡摆在你们面前的, 都可以吃, 不要为了良心的缘故问什么。
28 但是如果有人告诉你们: "这是献过祭的食物。"那么, 为了那告诉你们的人, 也为了良心的缘故, 就不要吃。
29 我说的良心, 不是你的, 而是他的。为什么我的自由要受别人的良心论断呢?
30 我若存着感恩的心吃了, 为什么我因着我所感恩的食物被人毁谤呢?
31 所以, 你们或吃喝, 或作什么, 一切都要为 神的荣耀而行。
32 无论是犹太人, 是希腊人, 是 神的教会, 你们总不可使他们跌倒;
33 就好像我所作的一切, 都是要使大家喜悦, 不是要求自己的好处, 而是要求别人的好处, 为了要使他们得救。
