Bible verse

1 Corinthians 10:13

No temptation has seized you except what is common to man. And God is faithful; He will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, He will also provide an escape, so that you can stand up under it.

1 Corinthians 10:13 in context

The verses around it, from 1 Corinthians 10.

9 We should not test Christ, as some of them did, and were killed by snakes.

10 And do not complain, as some of them did, and were killed by the destroying angel.

11 Now these things happened to them as examples and were written down as warnings for us, on whom the fulfillment of the ages has come.

12 So the one who thinks he is standing firm should be careful not to fall.

13 No temptation has seized you except what is common to man. And God is faithful; He will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, He will also provide an escape, so that you can stand up under it.

14 Therefore, my beloved, flee from idolatry.

15 I speak to reasonable people; judge for yourselves what I say.

16 Is not the cup of blessing that we bless a participation in the blood of Christ? And is not the bread that we break a participation in the body of Christ?

17 Because there is one loaf, we who are many are one body; for we all partake of the one loaf.
