It is universally reported [that there is] fornication among you, and such fornication as [is] not even among the nations, so that one should have his father's wife. |
2
|
And ye are puffed up, and ye have not rather mourned, in order that he that has done this deed might be taken away out of the midst of you. |
3
|
For I, [as] absent in body but present in spirit, have already judged as present, |
4
|
[to deliver,] in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ (ye and my spirit being gathered together, with the power of our Lord Jesus Christ), him that has so wrought this: |
5
|
to deliver him, [I say,] [being] such, to Satan for destruction of the flesh, that the spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus. |
6
|
Your boasting [is] not good. Do ye not know that a little leaven leavens the whole lump? |
7
|
Purge out the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump, according as ye are unleavened. For also our passover, Christ, has been sacrificed; |
8
|
so that let us celebrate the feast, not with old leaven, nor with leaven of malice and wickedness, but with unleavened [bread] of sincerity and truth. |
9
|
I have written to you in the epistle not to mix with fornicators; |
10
|
not altogether with the fornicators of this world, or with the avaricious and rapacious, or idolaters, since [then] ye should go out of the world. |
11
|
But now I have written to you, if any one called brother be fornicator, or avaricious, or idolater, or abusive, or a drunkard, or rapacious, not to mix with [him]; with such a one not even to eat. |
12
|
For what have I [to do] with judging those outside also? ye, do not ye judge them that are within? |
13
|
But those without God judges. Remove the wicked person from amongst yourselves. |
