    29For he that eateth and drinketh unworthily, eateth and drinketh damnation to himself, not discerning the Lord's body.

    30For this cause many are weak and sickly among you, and many sleep.

    31For if we would judge ourselves, we should not be judged.

    32But when we are judged, we are chastened of the Lord, that we should not be condemned with the world.

    33Wherefore, my brethren, when ye come together to eat, tarry one for another.

    34And if any man hunger, let him eat at home; that ye come not together unto condemnation. And the rest will I set in order when I come.
