1 Corinthians 10

1 But I want you not to be ignorant, brothers, that all our fathers were under the cloud, and all passed through the sea,

Brethren I wolde not that ye shuld be ignoraunt of this how yt oure fathers were all vnder a cloude and all passed thorow the see

2 and all in Moses were immersed in the cloud and in the sea.

and were all baptised vnder Moses in the cloude and in the see:

3 And they all ate the same spiritual food,

and dyd all eate of one spirituall meate

4 and they all drank the same spiritual drink, for they drank from a spiritual rock that followed them. And the rock was the Christ.

and did all drincke of one maner of spirituall drincke. And they dranke of that spretuall rocke that folowed them which rocke was Christ.

5 However with most of them God was not well pleased, for they were strewn in the wilderness.

But in many of them had god no delite. For they were overthrowen in the wildernes.

6 But these things became our examples, for us not to be men who lust for evil things as those also lusted.

These are ensamples to vs that we shuld not lust after evyll thinges as they lusted

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

Nether be ye worshippers of Images as were some of them accordynge as it is written: The people sate doune to eate and drynke and rose vp agayne to playe.

8 Nor should we fornicate as some of them fornicated, and twenty-three thousand fell in one day.

Nether let vs comit fornicacion as some of them committed fornicacion and were destroyed in one daye. xxiii. thousande.

9 Nor should we challenge the Christ as some of them also challenged, and were destroyed by the serpents.

Nether let vs tempte Christ as some of them tempted and were destroyed of serpentes.

10 And ye should not grumble as some of them grumbled, and were destroyed by the destroyer.

Nether murmure ye as some of them murmured and were destroyed of ye destroyer

11 Now all these things happened to those men for examples, and they were written for our admonition, to whom the ends of the ages came. (aiōn g165)

All these thinges happened vnto them for ensamples and were written to put vs in remembraunce whom the endes of the worlde are come apon. (aiōn g165)

12 Therefore let him who seems to stand take heed lest he fall.

Wherfore let hym that thynketh he stodeth take hede least he fall.

13 No temptation has taken you except is common to man. But God is faithful who will not allow you to be tempted above what ye are able, but with the temptation will also make the way to escape, to enable you to endure.

There hath none other temptacion taken you but soche as foloweth ye nature of ma. But God is faythfull which shall not suffer you to be tempted above youre strenght: but shall in the myddes of the temptacion make awaye to escape out.

14 Therefore, my beloved, flee from idolatry.

Wherfore my deare beloued fle from worshippynge of ydols.

15 I speak as to wise men, judge ye what I say.

I speake as vnto them which have discrecion Iudge ye what I saye.

16 The cup of the blessing that we bless, is it not a participation of the blood of the Christ? The bread that we break, is it not a participation of the body of the Christ?

Ys not the cuppe of blessinge which we blesse partakynge of ye bloude of Christ? ys not the breed which we breake partetakynge of the body of Christ?

17 Because we, the many, are one bread, one body, for we are all partakers of the one bread.

because that we (though we be many) yet are one breed and one bodye in as moch as we all are partetakers of one breed.

18 Look at Israel according to flesh. Those who eat the sacrifices, are they not partakers of the altar?

Beholde Israhell which walketh carnally. Are not they which eate of the sacrifyse partetakers of the aultre?

19 What therefore do I say, that an idol is anything, or that a sacrifice to an idol is anything?

What saye I then? that the ymage is eny thinge? or that it which is offered to ymages is eny thinge?

20 Rather, that which the Gentiles sacrifice, they sacrifice to demons and not to God, and I do not want you to become partakers of demons.

Nay but I saye that those thinges which the gentyle offer they offer to devyls and not to god. And I wolde not that ye shuld have fellishippe with ye devils

21 Ye cannot drink the cup of the Lord, and the cup of demons. Ye cannot be partakers of a table of the Lord, and of a table of demons.

Ye canot drincke of the cup of the lorde and of yt cup of ye deuyls. Ye cnanot be partetakers of the lordes table and of the table of deuelles.

22 Or do we provoke the Lord to jealousy? Are we stronger than he?

Ether shall we provoke the lorde? Or are we stronger then he? All thynges are laufull vnto me but all thynges are not expedient.

23 All things are permitted for me, but not all things are expedient. All things are permitted for me, but not all things are constructive.

All thynges are lawfull to me but all thinges edifye not.

24 Let not one man seek that of himself, but each man that of the other.

Let no man seke his awne proffet: but let every man seke anothers welthe.

25 Eat everything being sold in a meat market, inquiring of nothing because of the conscience,

What soever is solde in the market that eate and axe no questions for conscience sake

26 for the earth is the Lord's, and the fullness of it.

For the erth is the lordis and all that therein is.

27 If any of those unbelievers invites you, and ye want to go, eat everything being set before you, inquiring of nothing because of the conscience.

Yf eny of them which beleve not bid you to a feest and yf ye be disposed to goo what soever is seet before you: eate axinge no question for conscience sake.

28 But if any man says to you, This is a sacrifice to an idol, do not eat for the sake of that man who informed, and the conscience, for the earth is the Lord's, and the fullness of it.

But and yf eny man saye vnto you: this is dedicate vnto ydols eate not of it for his sake that shewed it and for hurtynge of conscience.

29 And I say conscience, not the one of himself, but the one of the other man. For why is my liberty judged by another conscience?

Conscience I saye not thyne: but the coscieuce of that other. For why shuld my liberte be iudged of another manes conscience:

30 If I partake with thankfulness, why am I maligned about which I express thanks?

For yf I take my parte with thakes: why am I evell spoken of for that thynge wherfore I geve thankes.

31 Therefore whether ye eat, or drink, or anything ye do, do all to the glory of God.

Whether therfore ye eate or dryncke or what soever ye do do all to the prayse of God.

32 Become ye inoffensive both to Jews and to Greeks, and to the church of God,

Se that ye geve occasion of evell nether to ye Iewes nor yet to the gentyls nether to ye cogregacion of god:

33 just as I also strive to please in all things for all men, not seeking my own advantage, but that of the many, so that they may be saved.

euen as I please all men in all thinges not sekynge myne awne proffet but the proffet of many that they myght be saved. Folowe me as I do Christ.
