1 Corinthians 11:20–26

20

When therefore you assemble yourselves together, it is not the Lord’s supper that you eat.

21

For in your eating each one takes his own supper first. One is hungry, and another is drunken.

22

What, don’t you have houses to eat and to drink in? Or do you despise God’s assembly and put them to shame who don’t have enough? What shall I tell you? Shall I praise you? In this I don’t praise you.

23
Selected verse

24

When he had given thanks, he broke it and said, “Take, eat. This is my body, which is broken for you. Do this in memory of me.”

25

In the same way he also took the cup after supper, saying, “This cup is the new covenant in my blood. Do this, as often as you drink, in memory of me.”

26

For as often as you eat this bread and drink this cup, you proclaim the Lord’s death until he comes.
