1 Corinthians 10

The Bible in Basic English BBE

1 For it is my desire, my brothers, that you may keep in mind how all our fathers were under the cloud, and they all went through the sea;

2 And they all had baptism from Moses in the cloud and in the sea;

3 And they all took the same holy food;

4 And the same holy drink: for they all took of the water from the holy rock which came after them: and the rock was Christ.

5 But with most of them God was not pleased: for they came to their end in the waste land.

6 Now these things were for an example to us, so that our hearts might not go after evil things, as they did.

7 Then do not go after false gods, as some of them did; as it is said in the holy Writings, After resting and feasting, the people got up to take their pleasure.

8 Again, let us not give way to the desires of the flesh, as some of them did, of whom twenty-three thousand came to their end in one day.

9 And let us not put the Lord to the test, as some of them did, and came to their death by snakes.

10 And do not say evil things against the Lord, as some of them did, and destruction overtook them.

11 Now these things were done as an example; and were put down in writing for our teaching, on whom the last days have come.

12 So let him who seems to himself to be safe go in fear of a fall.

13 You have been put to no test but such as is common to man: and God is true, who will not let any test come on you which you are not able to undergo; but he will make with the test a way out of it, so that you may be able to go through it.

14 For this cause, my dear brothers, give no worship to false gods.

15 What I am saying is for wise men, do you be the judges of it.

16 The cup of blessing which we take, does it not give us a part in the blood of Christ? and is not the broken bread a taking part in the body of Christ?

17 Because we, being a number of persons, are one bread, we are one body: for we all take part in the one bread.

18 See Israel after the flesh: do not those who take as food the offerings of the altar take a part in the altar?

19 Do I say, then, that what is offered to images is anything, or that the image is anything?

20 What I say is that the things offered by the Gentiles are offered to evil spirits and not to God; and it is not my desire for you to have any part with evil spirits.

21 It is not possible for you, at the same time, to take the cup of the Lord and the cup of evil spirits; you may not take part in the table of the Lord and the table of evil spirits.

22 Or may we be the cause of envy to the Lord? are we stronger than he?

23 We are free to do all things, but there are things which it is not wise to do. We are free to do all things, but not all things are for the common good.

24 Let a man give attention not only to what is good for himself, but equally to his neighbour's good.

25 Whatever meat may be had at the public market, take as food without question of right or wrong;

26 For the earth is the Lord's and all things in it.

27 If a Gentile makes a feast for you, and you are pleased to go as a guest, take whatever is put before you, without question of right or wrong.

28 But if anyone says to you, This food has been used as an offering, do not take it, on account of him who said it, and on account of his sense of right and wrong:

29 Right and wrong, I say, not for you, but for the other man; for the fact that I am free is not dependent on another man's sense of right or wrong.

30 But if I give praise to God for the food which I take, let no man say evil of me for that reason.

31 So then, if it is a question of food or drink, or any other thing, whatever you do, do all to the glory of God.

32 Give no cause of trouble to Jews, or to Greeks, or to the church of God.

33 Even as I give way to all men in all things, not looking for profit for myself, but for the good of others, that they may get salvation.

Orthodox Jewish Bible OJB

1 0 I do not want you to be without da’as, Achim b’Moshiach, that Avoteinu all were under the anan (cloud, SHEMOT 13:21-22) and passed through the sea [SHEMOT 14:22-25],

2 And all into Moshe Rabbenu were given tevilah in the anan (cloud) and in the sea,

3 And all of the same spiritual okhel (food) ate [SHEMOT 16:4,35; DEVARIM 8:3; TEHILLIM 78:24-29],

4 And all of the same spiritual drink drank, for they were drinking from a spiritual TZUR following them [SHEMOT 17:6; BAMIDBAR 20:11; TEHILLIM 78:15; 105:41], and that TZUR was Moshiach.

5 But Hashem was not pleased with most of them, for they were strewn about in the desert, VAYISHCHATEM BAMIDBAR ("then He slaughtered them in the desert" [BAMIDBAR 14:16, 23,29-30; TEHILLIM 78:31).

6 Now these things occurred as moftim (examples) for us, in order that we would not crave what is ra’ah as they did. [BAMIDBAR 11:4,34; TEHILLIM 106:14]

7 Neither should you become ovdei elilim (idolaters), as some of them did, as it has been written, "And the people sat to eat and to drink and they got up to revel” SHEMOT 32:6.

8 Neither should we commit zenut as some of them committed zenut and fell in one day twenty-three thousand [BAMIDBAR 25:1,9]. [T.N. if Rav Sha’ul is not giving the number that died in one day, a very famous and devastating twenty-four hour period, (with BAMIDBAR 25:4 mentioning other executions and the subsequent total being 24,000 [Bamidbar 24:9]), then Rav Sha’ul is referring to those who died in Shemot 32:35, quoting as he does Shemot 32:6 in 1C 10:7]

9 Neither let us tempt Moshiach, as some of them put Moshiach to the test, and by nechashim (serpents) were being destroyed [Ex 17:2; Num 21:5-6; Ps 78:18; 95:9; 106:4; ].

10 Neither should we murmur and grumble even as some of them VAYILONU ("and they murmured’ SHEMOT 15:24; 16:2; 17:3; BAMIDBAR 14:2,29; 16:41) and they were destroyed by the destroyer (Num 14:2,36; 16:41-49; 17:5,10; Ex 12:23Ps 106:25-27).

11 Now, these things happened to those ones as moftim (examples), but it was written for our admonition, to whom the Kitzei HaOlamim has come.

12 So then the one that presupposes that he stands, let him take care lest he fall.

13 No nissayon (temptation) has overtaken you, except that which is common to Bnei Adam, but, Hashem is ne’eman (faithful) (DEVARIM 7:9), who will not let you to be brought into nissayon beyond what you are able, but will make with the nissayon also the derech (Tzaddikim TEHILLIM 1:6) as a way out for you to be able to endure.

14 Therefore, my chaverim, flee from avodah zarah.

15 I speak as to thinking men; you judge what I say.

16 The Kos HaBracha (Cup of Blessing) over which we say the Bracha, is it not a [Mizbe’ach] sharing and deveykus participation in the Korban Pesach death and kapporah of Moshiach? The matzoh which we break, is this not a sharing and a deveykus participation in the Guf HaMoshiach?

17 Because the matzoh is echad, we, many as we are, are one body, one new humanity, for we all partake of the matzoh echad.

18 Observe Yisroel according to the basar. Are not the ones eating the korbanot (sacrifices) partakers of the Mizbe’ach (altar VAYIKRA 7:6, 14, 15)?

19 What then am I saying? That a sacrifice to an elil (idol) is anything or that an idol is anything?

20 No, the things which they sacrifice, YIZB’CHU LASHEDIM LO ELOHIM ("They sacrificed to demons which were not G-d" DEVARIM 32:17; TEHILLIM 106:37). Now I do not want you to become sharers with the shedim (demons). [VAYIKRA 17:7; DEVARIM 32:17; TEHILLIM 106:37]

21 You are not able to drink from the Kos of Hashem and also from the Kos HaShedim; you are not able to partake of the shulchan of Hashem and the shulchan of shedim (demons).

22 Or is it that you would move Hashem to kinah (jealousy) [DEVARIM 32:21]? We don’t think we are stronger than He, do we? [DEVARIM 32:16; MELACHIM ALEF 14:22; TEHILLIM 78:58; YIRMEYAH 44:8; KOHELET 6:10; YESHAYAH 45:9]

23 “All things are lawful”? But not all things are beneficial; “All things are lawful”? But not all things edify [6:12].

24 Let no one seek his own benefit but the benefit of the other.

25 Everything being sold in a meat market eat without raising qualms of matzpun (conscience).

26 For LAHASHEM HA’ARETZ UMELOAH ("The earth is the L-rd’s and the fullness thereof" TEHILLIM 24:1; 50:12; 89:11; SHEMOT 9:29; 19:5; IYOV 41:11; TEHILLIM 50:12).

27 If anyone of the Apikorosim invites you and you want to go, eat everything being set before you without raising qualms of matzpun (conscience).

28 But if anyone should say to you, ‘Zeh nizbach l’elil!’ (‘This is sacrificed to an idol!’), do not eat out of consideration for that man who informed you and because of matzpun (conscience).

29 But I speak not about your matzpun but about the matzpun of the other man, for why is my cherut (freedom) brought into mishpat (judgment) by another’s matzpun (conscience)?

30 If I partake with Birkat Hamazon (grace after meals), why am I blamed for what I give todah (thanks) for?

31 Whether, therefore, you eat or you drink or whatever you do, do all things to the kavod (glory) of Hashem. [ZECHARYAH 14:21]

32 Be without michshol both to Yehudim and to Yevanim and to the Kehillah of Hashem,

33 even as I also please Bnei Adam in all things, not seeking my own advantage but that of the many, that they may be brought to Yeshu’at Eloheinu.
