1 Corinthians 11:23-29
(ESV)

For I received from the Lord what I also delivered to you,
that the Lord Jesus on the night he was betrayed took bread,

and when he had given thanks, he broke it, and said,
"This is my body, which is for you.
Do this in remembrance of me."

In the same way also he took the cup after supper, saying,
"This cup is the new covenant in my blood.
Do this, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of me."

For as often as you eat this bread or drink the cup,
you proclaim the Lord's death until he comes.

Whoever, therefore, eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord
in an unworthy manner will be guilty of
profaning the body and blood of the Lord.

Let a person examine himself, then,
and so eat of the bread and drink of the cup.

For anyone who eats and drinks
without discerning the body
eats and drinks judgment on himself.
