You can read, but can you understand? Sounds like you have a Lutheran version of the text. Lutheran being a generic term. Get a Douay Rheims, the one with footnotes. Read the footnotes, then read the chapters, then read the footnotes again.
Now read Cor 1 13 and 14 and 15. The reason he wrote this letter is because the Corinthians had already fallen into schism if not actual heresy.
Cor 1 deals with the dissention already occurring
Cor 6 deals with resolving disputes
Cor 7 deals with marriage

I use the NIV when I quote on the internet. It's accurate and easy to understand
I am not a catholic so I have problems with Douay
Again, there is no need for footnotes. The bible was meant to be read by everyone, not to be "interpreted" by some ivory tower egg head
