1 Corinthians 11:20-26

The Lord's Supper

²⁰ When you come together, it is not the Lord's supper that you eat. ²¹ For in eating, each one goes ahead with his own meal. One goes hungry, _u another gets drunk. ²² What! Do you not have houses to eat and drink in? Or do you despise _v the church of God and _w humiliate those who have nothing? What shall I say to you? Shall I commend you in this? No, I will not.

²³ For _x I received from the Lord what I also delivered to you, that _y the Lord Jesus on the night when he was betrayed took bread, ²⁴ and when he had given thanks, he broke it, and said, "This is my body which is for ₁ you. Do this in remembrance of me." ₂ ²⁵ In the same way also he took the cup, after supper, saying, "This cup is the new covenant in my blood. Do this, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of me." ²⁶ For as often as you eat this bread and drink the cup, you proclaim the Lord's death _z until he comes.
