1 Corinthians 10:13

Warnings from Israel’s Past

12So the one who thinks he is standing firm should be careful not to fall.13No 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.

Translation for Translators
Remember that your desires to sin are the same desires that other people have. But when you are tempted to sin, you can trust God to help you.

Instead, when you are tempted {things tempt you}, he will also provide a way for you to endure it without sinning.
