1 Corinthians 11:20-22

Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

²⁰When you meet together, it is not the Lord’s supper that you eat.^[a] ²¹For in eating, each one goes ahead with his own meal, and one is hungry and another is drunk. ²²What! Do you not have houses to eat and drink in? Or do you despise the church of God and humiliate those who have nothing? What shall I say to you? Shall I commend you in this? No, I will not.
