< 1 Corinthians 5 >
1 It is absolutely heard, that there is fornication among you, and such fornication as the like is not among the heathens; that one should have his father’s wife.
It is actually reported that there is fornication among you, and such fornication as is not even among the Gentiles, that one [of you] hath his father’s wife.
2 And you are puffed up; and have not rather mourned, that he might be taken away from among you, that hath done this deed.
And ye are puffed up, and did not rather mourn, that he that had done this deed might be taken away from among you.
3 I indeed, absent in body, but present in spirit, have already judged, as though I were present, him that hath so done,
For I verily, being absent in body but present in spirit, have already, as though I were present, judged him that hath so wrought this thing,
4 In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, you being gathered together, and my spirit, with the power of our Lord Jesus;
in the name of our Lord Jesus, ye being gathered together, and my spirit, with the power of our Lord Jesus,
5 To deliver such a one to Satan for the destruction of the flesh, that the spirit may be saved in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ.
to deliver such a one unto Satan for the destruction of the flesh, that the spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus.
6 Your glorying is not good. Know you not that a little leaven corrupteth the whole lump?
Your glorying is not good. Know ye not that a little leaven leaveneth the whole lump?
7 Purge out the old leaven, that you may be a new paste, as you are unleavened. For Christ our pasch is sacrificed.
Purge out the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump, even as ye are unleavened. For our passover also hath been sacrificed, [even] Christ:
8 Therefore let us feast, not with the old leaven, nor with the leaven of malice and wickedness; but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.
wherefore let us keep the feast, not with old leaven, neither with the leaven of malice and wickedness, but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.
9 I wrote to you in an epistle, not to keep company with fornicators.
I wrote unto you in my epistle to have no company with fornicators;
10 I mean not with the fornicators of this world, or with the covetous, or the extortioners, or the servers of idols; otherwise you must needs go out of this world.
not altogether with the fornicators of this world, or with the covetous and extortioners, or with idolaters; for then must ye needs go out of the world:
11 But now I have written to you, not to keep company, if any man that is named a brother, be a fornicator, or covetous, or a server of idols, or a railer, or a drunkard, or an extortioner: with such a one, not so much as to eat.
but now I write unto you not to keep company, if any man that is named a brother be a fornicator, or covetous, or an idolater, or a reviler, or a drunkard, or an extortioner; with such a one no, not to eat.
12 For what have I to do to judge them that are without? Do not you judge them that are within?
For what have I to do with judging them that are without? Do not ye judge them that are within,
13 For them that are without, God will judge. Put away the evil one from among yourselves.
whereas them that are without God judgeth? Put away the wicked man from among yourselves.
