1 Corinthians 11:16-18
New American Standard Bible

Chapter 11

16But if anyone is inclined to be contentious, we have no such practice, nor have the churches of God.
17Now in giving this next instruction I do not praise you, because you come together not for the better, but for the worse. 18For, in the first place, when you come together as a church, I hear that divisions exist among you; and in part I believe it.
King James Version

Chapter 11

16But if any man seem to be contentious, we have no such custom, neither the churches of God.
17Now in this that I declare unto you I praise you not, that ye come together not for the better, but for the worse. 18For first of all, when ye come together in the church, I hear that there be divisions among you; and I partly believe it.
Christian Standard Bible

English Standard Version
