1 Corinthians 5

1 It is actually reported that there is sexual immorality amongst you, and such sexual immorality as is not even named amongst the Gentiles, that one has 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 You are arrogant, and didn’t mourn instead, that he who had done this deed might be removed from amongst 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 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.

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 you are gathered together with 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 you 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 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 boasting is not good. Don’t you know that a little yeast leavens the whole lump?

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

7 Purge out the old yeast, that you may be a new lump, even as you are unleavened. For indeed Christ, our Passover, has been sacrificed in our place.

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’s keep the feast, not with old yeast, neither with the yeast 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 to you in my letter to have no company with sexual sinners;

I wrote to you in that letter, not to keep company with fornicators;

10 yet not at all meaning with the sexual sinners of this world, or with the covetous and extortionists, or with idolaters, for then you would have to leave 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 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 extortionist. Don’t even eat with such a person.

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 do I have to do with also judging those who are outside? Don’t you judge those who are within?

For what have I to do with judging those who are without? Do not ye judge those who are within?

13 But those who are outside, God judges. “Put away the wicked man from amongst yourselves.”

But those who are without, God will judge. Do ye put away that bad man from among yourselves.
