1 Corinthians 10:4-6
EasyEnglish Bible
4 All of them drank the same spiritual drink. They drank water from the spiritual rock that went with them. Christ was that rock.[a] 5 They all received the same help from God, but most of them did not please God. God caused most of them to die in the wilderness.[b]
6 We must learn from those things that happened to our ancestors. We must not want to do very bad things, like they did.
