Qorintiyim Aleph (1 Corinthians) 10
10
1For I do not wish you to be ignorant, brothers, that all our fathers were under the cloud, and all passed through the sea,
2and all were immersed into Mosheh in the cloud and in the sea,
3and all ate the same spiritual food,
4and all drank the same spiritual drink. For they drank of that spiritual Rock that followed, and the Rock was Messiah.
5However, with most of them Elohim was not well pleased, for they were laid low in the wilderness.
6And these became examples for us, so that we should not lust after evil, as those indeed lusted.
7And do not become idolaters as some of them, as it has been written, “The people sat down to eat and to drink, and stood up to play.”# Exo. 32:6
8Neither should we commit whoring, as some of them did, and in one day twenty-three thousand fell,
9neither let us try Messiah, as some of them also tried, and were destroyed by serpents,
10neither grumble, as some of them also grumbled, and were destroyed by the destroyer.
11And all these came upon them as examples, and they were written as a warning to us, on whom the ends of the ages have come,
12so that he who thinks he stands, let him take heed lest he fall.
13No trial has overtaken you except such as is common to man, and Elohim is trustworthy, who shall not allow you to be tried beyond what you are able, but with the trial shall also make the way of escape, enabling you to bear it.
14Therefore, my beloved ones, flee from idolatry.
15I speak as to wise men, judge for yourselves what I say.
16The cup of blessing which we bless, is it not a sharing in the blood of Messiah? The bread that we break, is it not a sharing in the body of Messiah?
17Because there is one bread, we, who are many, are one body, for we all partake of the one bread.
18Look at Yisra’ĕl after the flesh: Are not those who eat of the slaughterings sharers in the slaughter-place?
19What then do I say? That an idol is of any value? Or that which is slaughtered to idols is of any value?
20No, but what the nations slaughter they slaughter to demons#See Lev. 17:7; Deu. 32:17 and not to Elohim, and I do not wish you to become sharers with demons.
21You are not able to drink the cup of the Master and the cup of demons, you are not able to partake of the table of the Master and of the table of demons.
22Do we provoke the Master to jealousy? Are we stronger than He?
23All is permitted me, but not all do profit. All is permitted me, but not all build up.
24Let no one seek his own, but each one that of the other.
25You eat whatever is sold in the meat market, asking no questions because of conscience,
26for “The earth belongs to יהוה, and all that fills it.”# Psa. 24:1; Psa. 50:12
27And if any of the unbelievers invite you, and you wish to go, you eat whatever is set before you, asking no question on account of the conscience.
28And if anyone says to you, “This was slaughtered to idols,” do not eat it because of the one pointing it out to you, and on account of the conscience, for “The earth belongs to יהוה, and all that fills it.”
29Now I say conscience, not your own, but that of the other. For why is my freedom judged by another’s conscience?
30But if I partake with thanks, why am I evil spoken of for what I give thanks?
31Therefore, whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the esteem of Elohim.
32Cause no stumbling, either to the Yehuḏim or to the Greeks or to the assembly of Elohim,
33as I also please all men in all matters, not seeking my own advantage, but that of the many, that they might be saved.

1 Corinthians 10
10
1And I do not wish you to be ignorant, brethren, that all our fathers were under the cloud, and all passed through the sea,
2and all to Moses were baptized in the cloud, and in the sea;
3and all the same spiritual food did eat,
4and all the same spiritual drink did drink, for they were drinking of a spiritual rock following them, and the rock was the Christ;
5but in the most of them God was not well pleased, for they were strewn in the wilderness,
6and those things became types of us, for our not passionately desiring evil things, as also these did desire.
7Neither become ye idolaters, as certain of them, as it hath been written, ‘The people sat down to eat and to drink, and stood up to play;’
8neither may we commit whoredom, as certain of them did commit whoredom, and there fell in one day twenty-three thousand;
9neither may we tempt the Christ, as also certain of them did tempt, and by the serpents did perish;
10neither murmur ye, as also some of them did murmur, and did perish by the destroyer.
11And all these things as types did happen to those persons, and they were written for our admonition, to whom the end of the ages did come,
12so that he who is thinking to stand — let him observe, lest he fall.
13No temptation hath taken you — except human; and God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above what ye are able, but He will make, with the temptation, also the outlet, for your being able to bear [it].
14Wherefore, my beloved, flee from the idolatry;
15as to wise men I speak — judge ye what I say:
16The cup of the blessing that we bless — is it not the fellowship of the blood of the Christ? the bread that we break — is it not the fellowship of the body of the Christ?
17because one bread, one body, are we the many — for we all of the one bread do partake.
18See Israel according to the flesh! are not those eating the sacrifices in the fellowship of the altar?
19what then do I say? that an idol is anything? or that a sacrifice offered to an idol is anything? —
20[no,] but that the things that the nations sacrifice — they sacrifice to demons and not to God; and I do not wish you to come into the fellowship of the demons.
21Ye are not able the cup of the Lord to drink, and the cup of demons; ye are not able of the table of the Lord to partake, and of the table of demons;
22do we arouse the Lord to jealousy? are we stronger than He?
23All things to me are lawful, but all things are not profitable; all things to me are lawful, but all things do not build up;
24let no one seek his own — but each another's.
25Whatever in the meat-market is sold eat ye, not inquiring, because of the conscience,
26for the Lord's [is] the earth, and its fulness;
27and if any one of the unbelieving do call you, and ye wish to go, all that is set before you eat, nothing inquiring, because of the conscience;
28and if any one may say to you, ‘This is a thing sacrificed to an idol,’ — do not eat, because of that one who shewed [it], and of the conscience, for the Lord's [is] the earth and its fulness:
29and conscience, I say, not of thyself, but of the other, for why [is it] that my liberty is judged by another's conscience?
30and if I thankfully do partake, why am I evil spoken of, for that for which I give thanks?
31Whether, then, ye eat, or drink, or do anything, do all to the glory of God;
32become offenceless, both to Jews and Greeks, and to the assembly of God;
33as I also in all things do please all, not seeking my own profit, but that of many — that they may be saved.
