A literal reading would be: 1 Corinthians 11:24-25 - manner also cup when supped saying this cup is new testament in my blood this ye as ye drink in remembrance me for as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup, shew Lord's death till he come Interesting. Not sure where to go with it, but interesting nonetheless. :-) I could comment about language structure, inflections, etc. but actually, I think you should look again at your interlinear New Testament. The Greek adverb "hosakis" and particle "ean" (Strong's #3740 and 1437), rendered "as often as," are found in verse 25 and again in verse 26. A literal rendering in English does (correctly) include the phrase, as in Young's literal translation. 1 Cor 11:25-26
In like manner also the cup after the supping, saying, 'This cup is the new covenant in my blood; this do ye, as often as ye may drink [it] -- to the remembrance of me;'
26 for as often as ye may eat this bread, and this cup may drink, the death of the Lord ye do shew forth -- till he may come;
YLT Look again, you may have missed something...
