1 Corinthians 5

1 It is actually reported that there is sexual immorality among you, and such sexual immorality as is not even among the nations, that one has his father's wife.

2 You are puffed up, and did not rather mourn, that he who had done this deed might be removed from among you.

3 For I most certainly, as being absent in body but present in spirit, have already, as though I were present, judged him who has done this thing.

4 In the name of our Lord Yeshua, you being gathered together, and my spirit, with the power of our Lord Yeshua,

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

6 Your boasting is not good. Do you not know that a little hametz leavens the whole lump?

7 Purge out the old hametz, that you may be a new lump, even as you are unleavened. For indeed Messiah, our Passover lamb, has been sacrificed for us.

8 Therefore let us keep the feast, not with old yeast, neither with the hametz of malice and wickedness, but with the matzah of sincerity and truth.

9 I wrote to you in my letter to have no company with sexual sinners;

10 yet not at all meaning with the sexual sinners of this world, or with the covetous and extortioners, or with idolaters; for then you would have to leave the world.

11 But as it is, I wrote to you not to associate with anyone who is called a brother who is a sexual sinner, or covetous, or an idolater, or a slanderer, or a drunkard, or an extortioner. Do not even eat with such a person.

12 For what have I to do with also judging those who are outside? Do you not judge those who are within?

13 But those who are outside, God judges. "Put away the wicked person from among yourselves."
