1 Corinthians 10:10

8 ^aNor let us commit sexual immorality, as ^bsome of them did, and ^cin one day twenty-three thousand fell;

9 nor let us¹ tempt Christ, as ^asome of them also tempted, and ^bwere destroyed by serpents;

10 nor complain, as ^asome of them also complained, and ^bwere destroyed by ^cthe destroyer.

11 Now¹ all these things happened to them as examples, and ^athey were written for our admonition, ^bupon whom the ends of the ages have come.

12 Therefore ^alet him who thinks he stands take heed lest he fall.
