1 Corinthians 11:17-19

New English Translation

The Lord’s Supper

¹⁷ Now in giving the following instruction I do not praise you, because you come together not for the better but for the worse. ¹⁸ For in the first place, when you come together as a church I hear there are divisions among you, and in part I believe it. ¹⁹ For there must in fact be divisions among you, so that those of you who are approved may be evident.^[a]
