1 Corinthians 11:20-22
1599 Geneva Bible
20 When ye come together therefore into one place, this is [a]not to eat the Lord’s Supper.
21 For every man when they should eat, taketh his own supper [b]afore, and one is hungry, and another is drunken.
22 [c]Have ye not houses to eat and to drink in? despise ye the Church of God, and shame them that have not? what shall I say to you? shall I praise you in this? I praise you not.

1 Corinthians 11:20-22
New International Version
20 So then, when you come together, it is not the Lord’s Supper you eat, 21 for when you are eating, some of you go ahead with your own private suppers.(A) As a result, one person remains hungry and another gets drunk. 22 Don’t you have homes to eat and drink in? Or do you despise the church of God(B) by humiliating those who have nothing?(C) What shall I say to you? Shall I praise you?(D) Certainly not in this matter!
