The Holy Bible, English Standard Version

1 Corinthians 11:27-32
<< 1 Corinthians 10 | 1 Corinthians 11 | 1 Corinthians 12 >>

27 Whoever, therefore, eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner will be guilty concerning the body and blood of the Lord. 28 Let a person examine himself, then, and so eat of the bread and drink of the cup. 29 For anyone who eats and drinks without discerning the body eats and drinks judgment on himself. 30 That is why many of you are weak and ill, and some have died. [1] 31 But if we judged [2] ourselves truly, we would not be judged. 32 But when we are judged by the Lord, we are disciplined [3] so that we may not be condemned along with the world.
