9And let us not put the Lord to the test, as some of them did, and came to their death by snakes.
10And do not say evil things against the Lord, as some of them did, and destruction overtook them.
11Now these things were done as an example; and were put down in writing for our teaching, on whom the last days have come.
12So let him who seems to himself to be safe go in fear of a fall.
13You have been put to no test but such as is common to man: and God is true, who will not let any test come on you which you are not able to undergo; but he will make with the test a way out of it, so that you may be able to go through it.
14For this cause, my dear brothers, give no worship to false gods.
15What I am saying is for wise men, do you be the judges of it.
