1 Korinterne 5
1 I det hele taget høres der om Utugt iblandt eder, og det saadan Utugt, som end ikke findes iblandt Hedningerne, at en lever med sin Faders Hustru.
It is actually reported that there is fornication among you, and of a kind unheard of even among the Gentiles--a man has his father's wife!
2 Og I ere opblæste og bleve ikke snarere bedrøvede, for at den, som har gjort denne Gerning, maatte udstødes af eders Midte!
And you, instead of mourning and removing from among you the man who has done this deed of shame, are filled with self-complacency!
3 Thi jeg for min Del, fraværende med Legemet, men nærværende med Aanden, har allerede, som om jeg var nærværende, fældet den Dom over ham, som paa saadan Vis har bedrevet dette,
I for my part, present with you in spirit although absent in body, have already, as though I were present, judged him who has so acted.
4 at, naar i vor Herres Jesu Navn I og min Aand ere forsamlede, saa med vor Herres Jesu Kraft
In the name of our Lord Jesus, when you are all assembled and my spirit is with you, together with the power of our Lord Jesus,
5 at overgive den paagældende til Satan til Kødets Undergang, for at Aanden kan frelses paa den Herres Jesu Dag.
I have handed over such a man to Satan for the destruction of his body, that his spirit may be saved on the day of the Lord Jesus.
6 Det er ikke noget smukt, I rose eder af! Vide I ikke, at en liden Surdejg syrer hele Dejgen?
It is no good thing--this which you make the ground of your boasting. Do you not know that a little yeast corrupts the whole of the dough?
7 Udrenser den gamle Surdejg, for at I kunne være en ny Dejg, ligesom I jo ere usyrede; thi ogsaa vort Paaskelam er slagtet, nemlig Kristus.
Get rid of the old yeast so that you may be dough of a new kind; for in fact you are free from corruption. For our Passover Lamb has already been offered in sacrifice--even Christ.
8 Derfor, lader os holde Højtid, ikke med gammel Surdejg, ej heller med Sletheds og Ondskabs Surdejg, men med Renheds og Sandheds usyrede Brød.
Therefore let us keep our festival not with old yeast nor with the yeast of what is evil and mischievous, but with bread free from yeast--the bread of transparent sincerity and of truth.
9 Jeg skrev eder til i mit Brev, at I ikke skulle have Samkvem med utugtige, —
I wrote to you in that letter that you were not to associate with fornicators;
10 ikke i al Almindelighed denne Verdens utugtige eller havesyge og Røvere eller Afgudsdyrkere; ellers maatte I jo gaa ud af Verden.
not that in this world you are to keep wholly aloof from such as they, any more than from people who are avaricious and greedy of gain, or from worshippers of idols. For that would mean that you would be compelled to go out of the world altogether.
11 Men nu skrev jeg til eder, at I ikke skulle have Samkvem, om nogen, der har Navn af Broder, er en utugtig eller en havesyg eller en Afgudsdyrker eller en Skændegæst eller en Dranker eller en Røver, ja, end ikke spise sammen med en saadan.
But what I meant was that you were not to associate with any one bearing the name of "brother," if he was addicted to fornication or avarice or idol-worship or abusive language or hard-drinking or greed of gain. With such a man you ought not even to eat.
12 Thi hvad kommer det mig ved at dømme dem, som ere udenfor? Dømme I ikke dem, som ere indenfor?
For what business of mine is it to judge outsiders? Is it not for you to judge those who are within the Church
13 Men dem udenfor skal Gud dømme. Bortskaffer den onde fra eder selv!
while you leave to God's judgement those who are outside? Remove the wicked man from among you.
