1 Corinthians 10:9-11

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition

⁹ We must not put Christ^[a] to the test, as some of them did, and were destroyed by serpents. ¹⁰ And do not complain as some of them did, and were destroyed by the destroyer. ¹¹ These things happened to them to serve as an example, and they were written down to instruct us, on whom the ends of the ages have come.
