6 Your boasting is not good. Know ye not that a little leaven leaveneth the whole lump?

7 Therefore purge out the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump, as ye are unleavened. For even Christ our passover is sacrificed for us:

9 I wrote to you in my epistle not to associate with immoral people:

12 For what have I to do to judge them also that are outside the church? do ye not judge them that are within?

For what have I to do to judge them also that are without? do not ye judge them that are within?

13 But them that are outside God judgeth. Therefore put away from among yourselves that wicked person.

But them that are without God judgeth. Therefore put away from among yourselves that wicked person.
