1 For I would not have you ignorant, brethren, that all our fathers were under the cloud, and all passed through the sea;

2 and all were baptised unto Moses in the cloud and in the sea;

3 and all ate the same spiritual food,

4 and all drank the same spiritual drink, for they drank of a spiritual rock which followed {them}: (now the rock was the Christ;)

5 yet God was not pleased with the most of them, for they were strewed in the desert.

6 But these things happened {as} types of us, that we should not be lusters after evil things, as they also lusted.

7 Neither be ye idolaters, as some of them; as it is written, The people sat down to eat and to drink, and rose up to play.

8 Neither let us commit fornication, as some of them committed fornication, and fell in one day three and twenty thousand.

9 Neither let us tempt the Christ, as some of them tempted, and perished by serpents.

10 Neither murmur ye, as some of them murmured, and perished by the destroyer.

11 Now all these things happened to them {as} types, and have been written for our admonition, upon whom the ends of the ages are come.

12 So that let him that thinks that he stands take heed lest he fall.

13 No temptation has taken you but such as is according to man's nature; and God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above what ye are able {to bear}, but will with the temptation make the issue also, so that {ye} should be able to bear {it}.

14 Wherefore, my beloved, flee from idolatry.

15 I speak as to intelligent {persons}: do *ye* judge what I say.

16 The cup of blessing which we bless, is it not {the} communion of the blood of the Christ? The bread which we break, is it not {the} communion of the body of the Christ?

17 Because we, {being} many, are one loaf, one body; for we all partake of that one loaf.

18 See Israel according to flesh: are not they who eat the sacrifices in communion with the altar?

19 What then do I say? that what is sacrificed to an idol is anything, or that an idol is anything?

20 But that what {the nations} sacrifice they sacrifice to demons, and not to God. Now I do not wish you to be in communion with demons.

21 Ye cannot drink {the} Lord's cup, and {the} cup of demons: ye cannot partake of {the} Lord's table, and of {the} table of demons.

22 Do we provoke the Lord to jealousy? are we stronger than he?

23 All things are lawful, but all are not profitable; all things are lawful, but all do not edify.

24 Let no one seek his own {advantage}, but that of the other.

25 Everything sold in the shambles eat, making no inquiry for conscience sake.

26 For the earth {is} the Lord's and its fulness.

27 But if any one of the unbelievers invite you, and ye are minded to go, all that is set before you eat, making no inquiry for conscience sake.

28 But if any one say to you, This is offered to holy purposes, do not eat, for his sake that pointed it out, and conscience sake;

29 but conscience, I mean, not thine own, but that of the other: for why is my liberty judged by another conscience?

30 If *I* partake with thanksgiving, why am I spoken evil of for what *I* give thanks for?

31 Whether therefore ye eat, or drink, or whatever ye do, do all things to God's glory.

32 Give no occasion to stumbling, whether to Jews, or Greeks, or the assembly of God.

33 Even as *I* also please all in all things; not seeking my own profit, but that of the many, that they may be saved.

1 E kore ahau e pai, e oku teina, kia kuware koutou, i raro katoa o matou matua i te kapua, i haere katoa ano hoki ra roto i te moana;

2 I iriiria ano ratou katoa ki a Mohi i roto i te kapua, i roto hoki i te moana;

3 A i kai ratou i te kai kotahi, he mea wairua;

4 I inu hoki ratou katoa i te wai kotahi, he mea wairua; no te mea i inu ratou i ta te mea wairua, ara i ta te toka i whai nei i a ratou: a ko taua toka ra ko te Karaiti.

5 Otiia kihai te Atua i ahuareka ki te nuinga o ratou; i turakina iho hoki ratou i te koraha.

6 Na, hei tohu enei mea ki a tatou, kia kaua tatou e hiahia ki nga mea kino, kei pera me ratou i hiahia ra.

7 Kaua ano koutou e karakia ki nga whakapakoko, kei pera me etahi o ratou; kua oti ra hoki te tuhituhi, I noho te iwi ki te kai, ki te inu, a whakatika ana ki te takaro.

8 Kaua hoki tatou e moepuku, kei pera me etahi o ratou i moepuku, a hinga ana e rua tekau ma toru nga mano i te ra kotahi.

9 Kaua hoki tatou e whakamatautau i a te Karaiti, kei pera me etahi o ratou i whakamatautau ra, a ngaro ana i te nakahi.

10 Kaua hoki koutou e amuamu, kei pera me etahi o ratou i amuamu, a ngaro ana ratou i te kaiwhakangaro.

11 Na, i pa enei mea ki a ratou hei tohu: kua tuhituhia nei hoki hei whakatupato i a tatou, i te hunga ka tae nei ki nga whakamutunga o te ao.

12 Na reira ko te tangata e mea ana e tu ana ia, kia tupato ia kei hinga.

13 Kahore ano kia pono ki a koutou tetahi whakamatautau e rere ke ana i to te tangata: he pono hoki te Atua, e kore nei e tuku kia nui ake i to koutou kaha te whakamatautau mo koutou; engari tahi me te whakamatautau ka meatia e ia he putanga, kia u ake ai koutou.

14 Na reira, e oku hoa aroha, rere atu i te karakia whakapakoko.

15 Ko taku korero nei he mea ki te hunga mahara; whakaaroa taku e mea nei.

16 Ko te kapu whakapainga e whakapai nei tatou, ehara koia i te inu tahi i nga toto o te Karaiti? Ko te taro e whatiwhatia nei e tatou, ehara ianei i te kai tahi i te tinana o te Karaiti?

17 Ina hoki ko tatou tokomaha nei, kotahi ano taro, kotahi ano tinana; kotahi tonu nei hoki taua taro e kainga nei e tatou katoa.

18 Whakaaroa a Iharaira o te kikokiko; he teka ianei ko te hunga e kai ana i nga patunga tapu, e uru tahi ana ki to te aata?

19 Na, he pehea ra taku korero? he tikanga mea ranei te mea e patua na ma te whakapakoko? he tikanga mea ranei te whakapakoko?

20 Otira e ki ana ahau, ko nga mea e patua ana e nga tauiwi, e patua ana ma nga rewera, he teka ma te Atua: e kore hoki ahau e pai kia uru tahi koutou ko nga rewera.

21 E kore koutou e ahei te inu i te kapu a te Ariki, i te kapu ano a nga rewera: e kore koutou e ahei te kai i te tepu a te Ariki, i te tepu hoki a nga rewera.

22 E mea ana ranei tatou kia hae mai te Ariki? he kaha koia tatou i a ia?

23 He tika nga mea katoa, otira e kore e pai katoa: he tika nga mea katoa, otira e kore e oti te waihanga e nga mea katoa.

24 Kaua tetahi e rapu ki tana ake, engari me rapu katoa i te pai mo tera, mo tera.

25 Ko nga mea katoa e hokona ana i te makete, kainga, kaua e uiui, kei he te hinengaro:

26 No te Ariki hoki te whenua me ona tini mea.

27 Ki te karangatia koutou e tetahi o te hunga whakaponokore, a ka pai koutou kia haere; ko nga mea katoa e whakatakotoria mai ki to koutou aroaro, kainga, kaua e uiui, kei he te hinengaro.

28 Ki te mea ia tetahi ki a koutou, I patua tenei ma te whakapakoko, kaua e kai, me whakaaro ki te kaiwhakaatu, ki te hinengaro hoki:

29 Ko te hinengaro, e ki ana ahau, ehara i tou, engari ko to tetahi; he aha toku herekoretanga kia whakakorea e tera atu hinengaro?

30 Ki te mea hoki na te aroha noa ahau i kai ai, he aha ahau i korerotia kinotia ai mo te mea i whakawhetai ai ahau?

31 Na reira, ahakoa kai, ahakoa inu, aha ranei, meinga katoatia hei whakakororia mo te Atua.

32 Kei waiho koutou hei tutukitanga waewae ki nga Hurai, ki nga Kariki ranei, ki te hahi ranei a te Atua;

33 Kia penei me ahau e whakamanawareka nei i te katoa i nga mea katoa, i ahau kahore nei e rapu i te pai moku ake, engari i to te tokomaha, kia ora ai ratou.
