6 Now these things were done in a figure of us, that we should not covet evil things, as they also coveted.

7 Neither become ye idolaters, as some of them, as it is written: The people sat down to eat and drink and rose up to play.

8 Neither let us commit fornication, as some of them that committed fornication: and there fell in one day three and twenty thousand.

9 Neither let us tempt Christ, as some of them tempted and perished by the serpent.

10 Neither do you murmur, as some of them murmured and were destroyed by the destroyer.

11 Now all these things happened to them in figure: and they are written for our correction, upon whom the ends of the world are come.

12 Wherefore, he that thinketh himself to stand, let him take heed lest he fall.

13 Let no temptation take hold on you, but such as is human. And God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that which you are able: but will make also with temptation issue, that you may be able to bear it.
