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

8 Nor let us commit sexual immorality, as some of them prostituted, and in one day twenty-three thousand fell;

9 nor let us test Christ, as some of them also tempted, and were destroyed by serpents;

10 nor murmur, as some of them also murmured, and were destroyed by the destroyer.

11 Now all these things happened to them as examples, and they were written for our admonition, upon whom the ends of the ages have come.
