What shall I say unto you? shall I praise you in this? I praise you not. ²³ For I received of the Lord what also I delivered to you, That the Lord Jesus, in the night in which he was betrayed, took a loaf: ²⁴ and when he had blessed it, he brake it, and said, Take, eat; this is my body, which is broken for you: do this in remembrance of me. ²⁵ In like manner also he took the cup, after they had supped, saying, This cup is the new testament in my blood: this do, as often as ye drink it, in remembrance of me. ²⁶ For as often as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup, ye do shew forth the death of the Lord till he come. ²⁷ Wherefore, whosoever eateth of this bread, or drinketh the cup of the Lord unworthily, he is guilty of the body and blood of the Lord. ²⁸ But let a man examine himself, and so let him eat of the bread, and drink of the cup. ²⁹ For he that eateth and drinketh unworthily, eateth and drinketh condemnation to himself, not distinguishing the Lord's body. ³⁰ For this cause many are diseased and infirm among you, and some asleep [in death]. ³¹ For if we thoroughly judged ourselves, we should not be judged of the Lord. ³² But being judged, we are corrected by the Lord, that we might not be condemned with the world. ³³ Wherefore, when ye meet together to eat the Lord's supper, wait for one another. ³⁴ And if any man be hungry, let him eat at home; that ye meet not together for condemnation. And the other matters I will regulate when I come.
