King James Version KJV
New International Version NIV
21 For in eating every one taketh before other his own supper: and one is hungry, and another is drunken.
21
for when you are eating, some of you go ahead with your own private suppers. As a result, one person remains hungry and another gets drunk.
22 What? have ye not houses to eat and to drink in? or despise ye the church of God, and shame them that have not? What shall I say to you? shall I praise you in this? I praise you not.
22
Don’t you have homes to eat and drink in? Or do you despise the church of God by humiliating those who have nothing? What shall I say to you? Shall I praise you? Certainly not in this matter!
23 For I have received of the Lord that which also I delivered unto you, That the Lord Jesus the same night in which he was betrayed took bread:
23
For I received from the Lord what I also passed on to you: The Lord Jesus, on the night he was betrayed, took bread,
24 And when he had given thanks, he brake it, and said,Take, eat: this is my body, which is broken for you: this do in remembrance of me.
24
and when he had given thanks, he broke it and said, “This is my body, which is for you; do this in remembrance of me.”
25 After the same manner also he took the cup, when he had supped, saying,This cup is the new testament in my blood: this do ye, as oft as ye drink it, in remembrance of me.
25
In the same way, after supper he took the cup, saying, “This cup is the new covenant in my blood; do this, whenever you drink it, in remembrance of me.”
26 For as often as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup, ye do shew the Lord's death till he come.
26
For whenever you eat this bread and drink this cup, you proclaim the Lord’s death until he comes.
27 Wherefore whosoever shall eat this bread, and drink this cup of the Lord, unworthily, shall be guilty of the body and blood of the Lord.
27
So then, whoever eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner will be guilty of sinning against the body and blood of the Lord.
28 But let a man examine himself, and so let him eat of that bread, and drink of that cup.
28
Everyone ought to examine themselves before they eat of the bread and drink from the cup.
29 For he that eateth and drinketh unworthily, eateth and drinketh damnation to himself, not discerning the Lord's body.
29
For those who eat and drink without discerning the body of Christ eat and drink judgment on themselves.
30 For this cause many are weak and sickly among you, and many sleep.
30
That is why many among you are weak and sick, and a number of you have fallen asleep.
