1 Corinthians 11:26-28
1599 Geneva Bible
26 For as often as ye shall eat this bread, and drink this cup, ye show the Lord’s death till he come.
27 [a]Wherefore, whosoever shall eat this bread, and drink the cup of the Lord [b]unworthily, shall be guilty of the body and blood of the Lord.
28 (A)[c]Let [d]every man therefore examine himself, and so let them eat of this bread, and drink of this cup.
