1 Corinthians 10:3-10

Murdock(i) 3 and they all ate the same spiritual food; 4 and they all drank the same spiritual drink; for they drank from the spiritual rock that attended them, and that rock was the Messiah. 5 But with a multitude of them, God was not pleased; for they fell in the wilderness. 6 Now these things were an example for us, that we should not hanker after evil things as they hankered. 7 Neither should we serve idols, as some of them served; as it is written, The people sat down to eat and to drink, and rose up to sport. 8 Neither let us commit whoredom, as some of them committed; and there fell in one day twenty and three thousand. 9 Neither let us tempt the Messiah, as some of them tempted; and serpents destroyed them. 10 Neither murmur ye, as some of them murmured; and they perished by the destroyer.
