1ST CORINTHIANS.
Chapter 10.
Brethren, I will not, that ye unknow (or that ye not know), that all our fathers were under a cloud, and all passed (through) the (Red) sea; (Brothers, I do not desire, that ye do not know, that all our fathers were under the protection of a cloud, and all passed through the Sea of Reeds;) 
and all were baptized in Moses, in the cloud and in the sea; 
and all ate the same spiritual meat, (and everyone ate the same spiritual food,) 
and all drank the same spiritual drink; and they drank of the spiritual stone following them; and the stone was Christ (or and that stone was the Messiah). 
But not in full many of them it was well pleasant to God; for why they were cast down in the desert. (But not very many of them pleased God; and because of that they were thrown down in the desert.) 
But these things were done in figure of us (or But these things were done as an example for us), (so) that we be not coveters of evil things, as they coveted. 
Neither be ye made idolaters, as some of them; as it is written, The people sat to eat and drink, and they rose up to play. 
Neither do we fornication, as some of them did fornication, and three and twenty thousand were dead in one day. 
Neither tempt we Christ, as some of them tempted, and perished of serpents. (Nor let us test the Lord, as some of them tested him, and perished from the bites of snakes.) 
Neither grudge ye, as some of them grudged, and they perished of a destroyer or of the waster. (And do not grumble, like some of them grumbled, and they perished by the Destroyer.) 
And all these things fell to them in figure; but they be written to our amending, into whom the ends of the worlds be come, or soothly they be written to our correction, into whom the ends of the world have come. (And all these things were examples for them; but they were written for our correction, unto whom the ends of the world have come.) 
Therefore he that guesseth him(self), that he standeth, see he, that he fall not. 
Temptation take not you, but man’s temptation; for God is true, which shall not suffer you to be tempted above that that ye may; but he shall make with temptation also purveyance, that ye may suffer or sustain(it). (Do not let yourselves be overtaken or defeated by any test, for it is but each man’stesting; and God is true, and he shall not allow you to be tested beyond what ye can endure; and he shall also make provision with any test, so that ye can endure it, or so that ye can sustain it.) 
Wherefore, ye most dearworthy to me, flee ye from the worshipping of maumets or flee from worshipping of idols. 
As to prudent men I speak, deem ye (or judge) yourselves that thing that I say or ye yourselves deem that thing that I say. 
Whether the cup of blessing which we bless, is not the communing of Christ’s blood? and whether the bread which we break, is not the part-taking of the body of the Lord? (The cup of blessing which we bless, is it not the sharing of the Messiah’s blood? and the bread which we break, is it not the partaking of the Lord’s body?) 
For we many be one bread and one body, all we that take part of one bread and of one cup. 
See ye Israel after the flesh, whether they that eat sacrifices, be not partners of the altar? 
What therefore say I, that a thing that is offered to idols is anything, or that the idol is anything? 
But those things that heathen men offer, they offer to devils, and not to God. But I will not, that ye be made fellows of fiends; (But those things which the Gentiles offer, they offer to demons, and not to God. But I do not desire, that ye be made the partners of devils and demons;) 
for ye may not drink the cup of the Lord, and the cup of fiends; ye may not be partners of the board of the Lord, and of the board of fiends. (for ye cannot drink the cup of the Lord, and the cup of devils and demons; ye cannot be partners of the table of the Lord, and partners of the table of devils and demons.) 
Whether we have envy to the Lord? whether we be stronger than he? (Could the Lord ever envy us? be we stronger than him?) 
All things be leaveful to me, but not all things be speedful. All things be leaveful to me, but not all things edify. (All things be lawful for me, but not all things be expedient. All things be lawful for me, but not all things edify.) 
No man seek (to protect or to esteem) that thing that is his own, but that thing that is of another (man). 
All thing that is sold in the butchery, eat ye, asking nothing for conscience. 
The earth and the plenty of it, is the Lord’s. 
If any of heathen or of unfaithful men call you to supper (or If any of the Gentiles invite you to dinner), and ye will go, all thing that is set to you, eat ye, asking nothing for conscience. 
But if any man saith, This thing is offered to idols, do not ye eat (it), for him that showed this thing, and for conscience; 
and I say not, thy conscience, but of another man’s(conscience). But whereto is my freedom or my liberty deemed of (or judged by) another man’s conscience? 
Therefore if I take part with grace, what am I blasphemed, for that that I do thankings or I do graces? (And so if I take part after saying grace, why am I blasphemed or criticized for that over which I have said grace, or for which I have given thanks?) 
Therefore whether ye eat, or drink, or do any other thing, do ye all things to the glory of God. 
Be ye without offence to Jews, and to heathen men, and to the church of God; (Give no offence to Jews, or to Gentiles, or to the church of God;) 
as I by all things please to all men, not seeking that that is profitable to me or not seeking what is profitable to me, but that that is profitable to many men, that they be made safe (or so that they can be saved).
