< 1 Corinthians 5 >
1 It is reported commonly that there is fornication among you, and such fornication as is not so much as named among the Gentiles, that one should have his father’s wife.
It is everywhere reported that there is fornication among you, and such fornication as is not even among the gentiles, that one should have his father's wife.
2 And ye are puffed up, and have not rather mourned, that he that hath done this deed might be taken away from among you.
And ye are puffed up, and did not rather mourn, so that he that committed this deed might be separated from among you.
3 For I verily, as absent in body, but present in spirit, have judged already, as though I were present, concerning him that hath so done this deed,
For I, for my part, though absent in the body, yet present in the spirit have already determined, as if I were present with you, respecting him who thus wrought this deed,
4 In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, when ye are gathered together, and my spirit, with the power of our Lord Jesus Christ,
in the name of our Lord Jesus, when you and my spirit with you are assembled together, with the power of our Lord Jesus,
5 To deliver such an one unto Satan for the destruction of the flesh, that the spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus.
to deliver such a man over to Satan for the destruction of his flesh, that his spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord.
6 Your glorying is not good. Know ye not that a little leaven leaveneth the whole lump?
Your glorying is not good. Know ye not, that a little leaven leaveneth the whole lump?
7 Purge out therefore the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump, as ye are unleavened. For even Christ our passover is sacrificed for us:
Cleanse out the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump, as ye are unleavened; for our passover also hath been sacrificed, even Christ.
8 Therefore 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.
So then let us keep the feast, not with the old leaven, nor with the leaven of malice and wickedness, but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.
9 I wrote unto you in an epistle not to company with fornicators:
I wrote to you in that letter, not to keep company with fornicators;
10 Yet not altogether with the fornicators of this world, or with the covetous, or extortioners, or with idolaters; for then must ye needs go out of the world.
certainly not meaning the fornicators of this world, or the covetous and extortioners, or idolaters; for to do this ye must go out of the world.
11 But now I have written unto you not to keep company, if any man that is called a brother be a fornicator, or covetous, or an idolater, or a railer, or a drunkard, or an extortioner; with such an one no not to eat.
But this is what I wrote you, not to keep company with any one called a brother, if he be a fornicator, or covetous, or an idolater, or a reviler, or a drunkard, or an extortioner; with such a one not even to eat.
12 For what have I to do to judge them also that are without? do not ye judge them that are within?
For what have I to do with judging those who are without? Do not ye judge those who are within?
13 But them that are without God judgeth. Therefore put away from among yourselves that wicked person.
But those who are without, God will judge. Do ye put away that bad man from among yourselves.
