1 Corinthians 11 — Context

21

For when it is time to eat, everyone proceeds with his own supper. One is hungry and another becomes drunk.

22

Do you not have houses so that you can eat and drink? Or are you trying to show contempt for the church of God by shaming those who have nothing? What should I say to you? Should I praise you? I will not praise you for this!

23

For I received from the Lord what I also passed on to you, that the Lord Jesus on the night in which he was betrayed took bread,

24

and after he had given thanks he broke it and said,“This is my body, which is for you. Do this in remembrance of me.”

25

In the same way, he also took the cup after supper, saying,“This cup is the new covenant in my blood. Do this, every time you drink it, in remembrance of me.”

26

For every time you eat this bread and drink the cup, you proclaim the Lord’s death until he comes.

27

For this reason, whoever eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner will be guilty of the body and blood of the Lord.
