1 Corinthians 5

1 Whoredom is actually heard of among you, and such whoredom as is not even named among the nations — as that one hath the wife of the father! —

我確實聽說在你們人間有淫亂的事，且是這樣的淫亂，連在外教人中也沒有過，以至有人同竟同自己父親的妻子姘居。

2 and ye are having been puffed up, and did not rather mourn, that he may be removed out of the midst of you who did this work,

你們竟還傲慢自大，你們豈不是更該悲哀，把行這事的人從你們中間除去嗎？

3 for I indeed, as being absent as to the body, and present as to the spirit, have already judged, as being present, him who so wrought this thing:

至於我，身體雖不在你們那邊，但人神卻與你們同在，我好像親自在你們中間一樣，因我們的主耶穌的名，已判決了行這樣事的人；

4 in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ — ye being gathered together, also my spirit — with the power of our Lord Jesus Christ,

當你們聚會時，我的人神也與你們同在，以我們的主耶穌的大能，

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

將這樣的人交與撒殫，摧他毀他的肉體，為使他的靈魂在主[耶穌]的日子上可以得救。

6 Not good [is] your glorying; have ye not known that a little leaven the whole lump doth leaven?

你們自誇實在不當；你們豈不知道少許的酵母．能使整個麵團發酵嗎？

7 cleanse out, therefore, the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump, according as ye are unleavened, for also our passover for us was sacrificed — Christ,

你你們應把舊酵母除淨，好使你們成為新的麵團，正如你們原是無酵餅一樣，因為我們的逾越節羔羊基督，祂被祭殺作了犧牲。

8 so that we may keep the feast, not with old leaven, nor with the leaven of evil and wickedness, but with unleavened food of sincerity and truth.

我們過節，不可用舊酵母，也不可用奸詐和邪惡的酵母，而只可用純潔和真誠的無酵餅。

9 I did write to you in the epistle, not to keep company with whoremongers —

我先前在信上給你們寫過：不可與淫蕩的人交結，

10 and not certainly with the whoremongers of this world, or with the covetous, or extortioners, or idolaters, seeing ye ought then to go forth out of the world —

這話不是泛指有這世上所有淫蕩的，或貪婪的人，或勒索人的人，或拜偶像的人；若是這樣，你們就非出離這世界不可。

11 and now, I did write to you not to keep company with [him], if any one, being named a brother, may be a whoremonger, or covetous, or an idolater, or a railer, or a drunkard, or an extortioner — with such a one not even to eat together;

其實我寫給你們們的，是說：若有稱為弟兄的，是淫蕩的，或貪婪的，或拜偶像的，或辱罵人的，或酗酒的，或勒索人的，你們就不要同他們交結；並且同這樣的人，連一起吃飯也不可。

12 for what have I also those without to judge? those within do ye not judge?

審斷教外人的人，關我何事？教內的人，豈不該由你們審斷嗎？

13 and those without God doth judge; and put ye away the evil from among yourselves.

教外的人，自有天主審斷他們。你們務要把壞人從你們中間剷除。
