< 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! —
It is absolutely heard, that there is fornication among you, and such fornication as the like is not among the heathens; that one should have his father’s wife.
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,
And you are puffed up; and have not rather mourned, that he might be taken away from among you, that hath done this deed.
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:
I indeed, absent in body, but present in spirit, have already judged, as though I were present, him that hath so done,
4 in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ — ye being gathered together, also my spirit — with the power of our Lord Jesus Christ,
In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, you being gathered together, and my spirit, with the power of our Lord Jesus;
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.
To deliver such a one to Satan for the destruction of the flesh, that the spirit may be saved in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ.
6 Not good [is] your glorying; have ye not known that a little leaven the whole lump doth leaven?
Your glorying is not good. Know you not that a little leaven corrupteth the whole lump?
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,
Purge out the old leaven, that you may be a new paste, as you are unleavened. For Christ our pasch is sacrificed.
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.
Therefore let us 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 did write to you in the epistle, not to keep company with whoremongers —
I wrote to you in an epistle, not to keep company with fornicators.
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 —
I mean not with the fornicators of this world, or with the covetous, or the extortioners, or the servers of idols; otherwise you must needs go out of this world.
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;
But now I have written to you, not to keep company, if any man that is named a brother, be a fornicator, or covetous, or a server of idols, or a railer, or a drunkard, or an extortioner: with such a one, not so much as to eat.
12 for what have I also those without to judge? those within do ye not judge?
For what have I to do to judge them that are without? Do not you judge them that are within?
13 and those without God doth judge; and put ye away the evil from among yourselves.
For them that are without, God will judge. Put away the evil one from among yourselves.
