這些事都是我們的鑑戒、叫我們不要貪戀惡事、像他們那樣貪戀的。
也不要拜偶像、像他們有人拜的.如經上所記、『百姓坐下喫喝、起來玩耍。』
我們也不要行姦淫、像他們有人行的、一天就倒斃了二萬三千人。
也不要試探主、〔主有古卷作基督〕像他們有人試探的、就被蛇所滅。
你們也不要發怨言、像他們有發怨言的、就被滅命的所滅。

Now these things happened as examples for us, so that we would not crave evil things as they also craved.
Do not be idolaters, as some of them were; as it is written, "THE PEOPLE SAT DOWN TO EAT AND DRINK, AND STOOD UP TO PLAY."
Nor let us act immorally, as some of them did, and twenty-three thousand fell in one day.
Nor let us try the Lord, as some of them did, and were destroyed by the serpents.
Nor grumble, as some of them did, and were destroyed by the destroyer.
