Wait for One Another

27Therefore, whoever eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner will be guilty concerning the body and blood of the Lord.

28But let a man examine himself, and in this way let him eat from the bread and drink from the cup.

29For the one who eats and drinks eats and drinks judgment on himself, not discerning the body.

30For this reason many among you are weak and sick, and a good number have fallen asleep.

31But if we judged ourselves, we would not be judged.

32But when we are judged by the Lord, we are disciplined, so that we may not be condemned along with the world.

33So then, my brothers, when you come together to eat, wait for one another.

34If anyone is hungry, let him eat at home, so that you may not come together for judgment. And I will give directions about the rest when I come.
