1 Corinthians 10:9

Jesus
TemptationJudgment

7 Do not be idolaters, as some of them were. As it is written: “The people sat down to eat and to drink, and got up to indulge in revelry.”

8 We should not commit sexual immorality, as some of them did, and in one day twenty-three thousand of them died.

We should not test Christ, as some of them did, and were killed by snakes.

10 And do not complain, as some of them did, and were killed by the destroying angel.

11 Now these things happened to them as examples and were written down as warnings for us, on whom the fulfillment of the ages has come.

Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
