17Now in this that I declare unto you I praise you not, that ye come together not for the better, but for the worse.
18For first of all, when ye come together in the church, I hear that there be divisions among you; and I partly believe it.
19For there must be also heresies among you, that they which are approved may be made manifest among you.
20When ye come together therefore into one place, this is not to eat the Lord’s supper.
21For in eating every one taketh before other his own supper: and one is hungry, and another is drunken.
22What? 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.
23For 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:
24And 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.
25After 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.
26For as often as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup, ye do shew the Lord’s death till he come.
27Wherefore whosoever shall eat this bread, and drink this cup of the Lord, unworthily, shall be guilty of the body and blood of the Lord.
28But let a man examine himself, and so let him eat of that bread, and drink of that cup.
29For he that eateth and drinketh unworthily, eateth and drinketh damnation to himself, not discerning the Lord’s body.
30For this cause many are weak and sickly among you, and many sleep.
31For if we would judge ourselves, we should not be judged.
32But when we are judged, we are chastened of the Lord, that we should not be condemned with the world.
33Wherefore, my brethren, when ye come together to eat, tarry one for another.
34And if any man hunger, let him eat at home; that ye come not together unto condemnation. And the rest will I set in order when I come.
17Now in this that I declare vnto you, I praise you not, that you come together not for the better, but for the worse.
18For first of all when yee come together in the Church, I heare that there be ‖diuisions among you, and I partly beleeue it.
19For there must bee also ‖heresies among you, that they which are approued may be made manifest among you.
20When yee come together therefore into one place, this is ‖not to eate the Lords Supper.
21For in eating, euery one taketh before other, his owne supper: and one is hungry, and an other is drunken.
22What, haue ye not houses to eate and to drinke in? Or despise yee the Church of God, and shame ‖them that haue not? What shall I say to you? shall I praise you in this? I prayse you not.
23For I haue receiued of the Lord that which also I deliuered vnto you, that the Lord Iesus, the same night in which he was betrayed, tooke bread:
24*And when he had giuen thanks, he brake it, and sayd, Take, eate, this is my body, which is broken for you: this doe ‖in remembrance of mee.
25After the same manner also hee tooke the cup when he had supped, saying, This cup is the new Testament in my blood: this do ye, as oft as ye drinke it, in remembrance of me.
26For as often as ye eate this bread, and drinke this cup, ‖yee doe shew the Lords death till he come.
27Wherefore, whosoeuer shall eate this bread, and drinke this cup of the Lord vnworthily, shall be guilty of the body and blood of the Lord.
28But let a man examine himselfe, and so let him eate of that bread, and drinke of that cup.
29For hee that eateth and drinketh vnworthily, eateth and drinketh ‖damnation to himselfe, not discerning the Lords body.
30For this cause many are weake and sickly among you, and many sleepe.
31For if we would iudge our selues, we should not be iudged.
32But when we are iudged, we are chastened of the Lord, that wee should not be condemned with the world.
33Wherefore my brethren, when ye come together to eate, tary one for another.
34And if any man hunger, let him eate at home, that ye come not together vnto ‖condemnation. And the rest wil I set in order, when I come.
