1 Corintios 5
1 Se dice, de hecho, que hay entre ustedes un pecado de inmoralidad tan grave, que no se ve ni siquiera entre los gentiles, que uno de ustedes tiene a la mujer de su padre.
It is actually reported that there is fornication among you, and of a kind unheard of even among the Gentiles--a man has his father's wife!
2 Y en lugar de sentir tristeza, se llenan de orgullo, de modo que el que ha hecho esto no ha sido despedido de entre ustedes.
And you, instead of mourning and removing from among you the man who has done this deed of shame, are filled with self-complacency!
3 Porque yo, estando presente en espíritu aunque no en cuerpo, he tomado una decisión acerca de aquel que ha hecho esto;
I for my part, present with you in spirit although absent in body, have already, as though I were present, judged him who has so acted.
4 En el nombre de nuestro Señor Jesús, reunidos ustedes y mi espíritu, con el poder de nuestro Señor Jesús,
In the name of our Lord Jesus, when you are all assembled and my spirit is with you, together with the power of our Lord Jesus,
5 para que este hombre sea entregado a Satanás para la destrucción de la carne, para que su espíritu tenga perdón en el día del Señor Jesús.
I have handed over such a man to Satan for the destruction of his body, that his spirit may be saved on the day of the Lord Jesus.
6 Este orgullo tuyo no es bueno. ¿No ves que un poco de levadura produce un cambio en toda la masa?
It is no good thing--this which you make the ground of your boasting. Do you not know that a little yeast corrupts the whole of the dough?
7 Quita, pues, la levadura vieja, para que puedas ser una masa nueva, así como estás sin levadura. Porque Cristo ha sido ejecutado como nuestra Pascua.
Get rid of the old yeast so that you may be dough of a new kind; for in fact you are free from corruption. For our Passover Lamb has already been offered in sacrifice--even Christ.
8 Mantengamos la fiesta, no con la vieja levadura, y no con la levadura de malos pensamientos y actos, sino con el pan sin levadura con sinceridad y verdad.
Therefore let us keep our festival not with old yeast nor with the yeast of what is evil and mischievous, but with bread free from yeast--the bread of transparent sincerity and of truth.
9 En mi carta te dije que no debías hacer compañía con los que persiguen inmoralidad sexual;
I wrote to you in that letter that you were not to associate with fornicators;
10 Pero no tenía en mente a los pecadores que están fuera de la iglesia, o aquellos que son avaros, ladrones, chismosos, o idólatras; porque no es posible mantenerse alejado de tales personas sin salir completamente del mundo:
not that in this world you are to keep wholly aloof from such as they, any more than from people who are avaricious and greedy of gain, or from worshippers of idols. For that would mean that you would be compelled to go out of the world altogether.
11 Pero el sentido de mi carta era que no deben tener trato con ninguno que, llamándose hermano, sea inmoral o avaro, o idólatra, o maldiciente, o borracho, o ladrón, con gente así ni siquiera se sienten a comer.
But what I meant was that you were not to associate with any one bearing the name of "brother," if he was addicted to fornication or avarice or idol-worship or abusive language or hard-drinking or greed of gain. With such a man you ought not even to eat.
12 Porque no es asunto mío el juzgar a los que están afuera; pero ustedes deben de juzgar a los que están entre ustedes;
For what business of mine is it to judge outsiders? Is it not for you to judge those who are within the Church
13 En cuanto a los que están afuera, Dios es su juez. Así que aparta a ese pecador de en medio de ustedes.
while you leave to God's judgement those who are outside? Remove the wicked man from among you.
