The Latin Vulgate VUL
New King James Version NKJV
1 nolo enim vos ignorare fratres quoniam patres nostri omnes sub nube fuerunt et omnes mare transierunt
1
Moreover, brethren, I do not want you to be unaware that all our fathers were under the cloud, all passed through the sea,
2 et omnes in Mose baptizati sunt in nube et in mari
2
all were baptized into Moses in the cloud and in the sea,
3 et omnes eandem escam spiritalem manducaverunt
3
all ate the same spiritual food,
4 et omnes eundem potum spiritalem biberunt bibebant autem de spiritali consequenti eos petra petra autem erat Christus
4
and all drank the same spiritual drink. For they drank of that spiritual Rock that followed them, and that Rock was Christ.
5 sed non in pluribus eorum beneplacitum est Deo nam prostrati sunt in deserto
5
But with most of them God was not well pleased, for their bodies were scattered in the wilderness.
6 haec autem in figura facta sunt nostri ut non simus concupiscentes malorum sicut et illi concupierunt
6
Now these things became our examples, to the intent that we should not lust after evil things as they also lusted.
7 neque idolorum cultores efficiamini sicut quidam ex ipsis quemadmodum scriptum est sedit populus manducare et bibere et surrexerunt ludere
7
And do not 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 neque fornicemur sicut quidam ex ipsis fornicati sunt et ceciderunt una die viginti tria milia
8
Nor let us commit sexual immorality, as some of them did, and in one day twenty-three thousand fell;
9 neque temptemus Christum sicut quidam eorum temptaverunt et a serpentibus perierunt
9
nor let us tempt Christ, as some of them also tempted, and were destroyed by serpents;
10 neque murmuraveritis sicut quidam eorum murmuraverunt et perierunt ab exterminatore
10
nor complain, as some of them also complained, and were destroyed by the destroyer.
11 haec autem omnia in figura contingebant illis scripta sunt autem ad correptionem nostram in quos fines saeculorum devenerunt
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.
12 itaque qui se existimat stare videat ne cadat
12
Therefore let him who thinks he stands take heed lest he fall.
13 temptatio vos non adprehendat nisi humana fidelis autem Deus qui non patietur vos temptari super id quod potestis sed faciet cum temptatione etiam proventum ut possitis sustinere
13
No temptation has overtaken you except such as is common to man; but God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you are able, but with the temptation will also make the way of escape, that you may be able to bear it.
14 propter quod carissimi mihi fugite ab idolorum cultura
14
Therefore, my beloved, flee from idolatry.
15 ut prudentibus loquor vos iudicate quod dico
15
I speak as to wise men; judge for yourselves what I say.
16 calicem benedictionis cui benedicimus nonne communicatio sanguinis Christi est et panis quem frangimus nonne participatio corporis Domini est
16
The cup of blessing which we bless, is it not the communion of the blood of Christ? The bread which we break, is it not the communion of the body of Christ?
17 quoniam unus panis unum corpus multi sumus omnes quidem de uno pane participamur
17
For we, though many, are one bread and one body; for we all partake of that one bread.
18 videte Israhel secundum carnem nonne qui edunt hostias participes sunt altaris
18
Observe Israel after the flesh: Are not those who eat of the sacrifices partakers of the altar?
19 quid ergo dico quod idolis immolatum sit aliquid aut quod idolum sit aliquid
19
What am I saying then? That an idol is anything, or what is offered to idols is anything?
20 sed quae immolant gentes daemoniis immolant et non Deo nolo autem vos socios fieri daemoniorum non potestis calicem Domini bibere et calicem daemoniorum
20
Rather, that the things which the Gentiles sacrifice they sacrifice to demons and not to God, and I do not want you to have fellowship with demons.
21 non potestis mensae Domini participes esse et mensae daemoniorum
21
You cannot drink the cup of the Lord and the cup of demons; you cannot partake of the Lord's table and of the table of demons.
22 an aemulamur Dominum numquid fortiores illo sumus omnia licent sed non omnia expediunt
22
Or do we provoke the Lord to jealousy? Are we stronger than He?
23 omnia licent sed non omnia aedificant
23
All things are lawful for me, but not all things are helpful; all things are lawful for me, but not all things edify.
24 nemo quod suum est quaerat sed quod alterius
24
Let no one seek his own, but each one the other's well-being.
25 omne quod in macello venit manducate nihil interrogantes propter conscientiam
25
Eat whatever is sold in the meat market, asking no questions for conscience' sake;
26 Domini est terra et plenitudo eius
26
for "the earth is the Lord's, and all its fullness."
27 si quis vocat vos infidelium et vultis ire omne quod vobis adponitur manducate nihil interrogantes propter conscientiam
27
If any of those who do not believe invites you to dinner, and you desire to go, eat whatever is set before you, asking no question for conscience' sake.
28 si quis autem dixerit hoc immolaticium est idolis nolite manducare propter illum qui indicavit et propter conscientiam
28
But if anyone says to you, "This was offered to idols," do not eat it for the sake of the one who told you, and for conscience' sake; for "the earth is the Lord's, and all its fullness."
29 conscientiam autem dico non tuam sed alterius ut quid enim libertas mea iudicatur ab alia conscientia
29
"Conscience," I say, not your own, but that of the other. For why is my liberty judged by another man's conscience?
30 si ego cum gratia participo quid blasphemor pro eo quod gratias ago
30
But if I partake with thanks, why am I evil spoken of for the food over which I give thanks?
31 sive ergo manducatis sive bibitis vel aliud quid facitis omnia in gloriam Dei facite
31
Therefore, whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God.
32 sine offensione estote Iudaeis et gentilibus et ecclesiae Dei
32
Give no offense, either to the Jews or to the Greeks or to the church of God,
33 sicut et ego per omnia omnibus placeo non quaerens quod mihi utile est sed quod multis ut salvi fiant
33
just as I also please all men in all things, not seeking my own profit, but the profit of many, that they may be saved.
