1 Corinthians 5

1 It is heard certainely that there is fornication among you: and such fornication as is not once named among the Gentiles, that one should haue his fathers wife.

IT is generally reported that there is whoredom among you, and such whoredom as is not even named among the Gentiles, that one should have his father’s wife.

2 And ye are puffed vp and haue not rather sorowed, that he which hath done this deede, might be put from among you.

And ye are puffed up, though ought ye not rather to be grieved? that he who hath done this deed might be plucked from the midst of you.

3 For I verely as absent in bodie, but present in spirit, haue determined already as though I were present, that he that hath thus done this thing,

For I indeed, as absent in body, but present in spirit, have already, as present, passed judgment on him who hath so done this thing;

4 When ye are gathered together, and my spirit, in the Name of our Lord Iesus Christ, that such one, I say, by the power of our Lord Iesus Christ,

in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, ye being assembled together and my spirit with the power of our Lord Jesus Christ,

5 Be deliuered vnto Satan, for the destruction of the flesh, that the spirit may be saued in the day of the Lord Iesus.

to deliver such a one over to Satan for the destruction of the flesh, that the spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus.

6 Your reioycing is not good: knowe ye not that a litle leauen, leaueneth ye whole lumpe?

Your glorying is not good: know ye not that a little leaven leaveneth the whole mass?

7 Purge out therefore the olde leauen, that ye may be a newe lumpe, as ye are vnleauened: for Christ our Passeouer is sacrificed for vs.

Purge out therefore the old leaven, that ye may be a new mass, as ye are unleavened. For our passover hath been sacrificed for us, even Christ.

8 Therefore let vs keepe the feast, not with olde leauen, neither in the leauen of maliciousnes and wickednesse: but with the vnleauened bread of synceritie and trueth.

Therefore let us keep the feast, not with old leaven, nor with the leaven of malice and wickedness, but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.

9 I wrote vnto you in an Epistle, that ye should not companie together with fornicatours,

I have written unto you in an epistle that you should not associate with fornicators.

10 And not altogether with the fornicatours of this world, or with the couetous, or with extortioners, or with idolaters: for then ye must goe out of the world.

Yet not altogether with the fornicators of this world, or the covetous, or extortioners, or idolaters: for then must ye indeed go out of the world.

11 But nowe I haue written vnto you, that ye companie not together: if any that is called a brother, be a fornicatour, or couetous, or an idolater, or a rayler, or a drunkard, or an extortioner, with such one eate not.

But now I have written unto you not to associate with him, if any man, professing to be a brother, be a fornicator, or covetous, or an idolater, or a railer, or a drunkard, or an extortioner, with such a one not even to eat.

12 For what haue I to doe, to iudge them also which are without? doe ye not iudge them that are within?

For what call have I to judge those who are without? Do not ye judge those who are within the church?

13 But God iudgeth them that are without. Put away therefore from among your selues that wicked man.

But those who are without God judgeth. Put then away that wicked man from among yourselves.
