"Now I caution you, without praising, about this: that you assemble together, and not for better, but for worse. "

“Now in this that I declare unto you I praise you not, that ye come together not for the better, but for the worse.”
“But in giving you this charge, I praise you not, that ye come together not for the better but for the worse. ”

“The Lord’s Supper Now in giving the following instruction I do not praise you, because you come together not for the better but for the worse.”
“Now this I ordain: not praising you, that you come together, not for the better, but for the worse.”
“But in giving you this order, there is one thing about which I am not pleased: it is that when you come together it is not for the better but for the worse.”
“Now in this that I declare unto you I praise you not, that ye come together not for the better, but for the worse.”
Does not even nature herself teach you that, indeed, if a man grows his hair long, it is a disgrace for him?
Yet truly, if a woman grows her hair long, it is a glory for her, because her hair has been given to her as a covering.
But if anyone has a mind to be contentious, we have no such custom, nor does the Church of God.
Now I caution you, without praising, about this: that you assemble together, and not for better, but for worse.
First of all, indeed, I hear that when you assemble together in the church, there are schisms among you. And I believe this, in part.
For there must also be heresies, so that those who have been tested may be made manifest among you.
And so, when you assemble together as one, it is no longer in order to eat the Lord’s supper.
