5:1 It is actually reported that there is sexual immorality among you, and of a kind that does not occur even among pagans: A man has his father’s wife.
5:2 And you are proud! Shouldn’t you rather have been filled with grief and have put out of your fellowship the man who did this?
5:3 Even though I am not physically present, I am with you in spirit. And I have already passed judgment on the one who did this, just as if I were present.
5:4 When you are assembled in the name of our Lord Jesus and I am with you in spirit, and the power of our Lord Jesus is present,
5:5 hand this man over to Satan, so that the sinful nature may be destroyed and his spirit saved on the day of the Lord.
5:6 Your boasting is not good. Don’t you know that a little yeast works through the whole batch of dough?
5:7 Get rid of the old yeast that you may be a new batch without yeast–as you really are. For Christ, our Passover lamb, has been sacrificed.
5:8 Therefore let us keep the Festival, not with the old yeast, the yeast of malice and wickedness, but with bread without yeast, the bread of sincerity and truth.
5:9 I have written you in my letter not to associate with sexually immoral people–
5:10 not at all meaning the people of this world who are immoral, or the greedy and swindlers, or idolaters. In that case you would have to leave this world.
5:11 But now I am writing you that you must not associate with anyone who calls himself a brother but is sexually immoral or greedy, an idolater or a slanderer, a drunkard or a swindler. With such a man do not even eat.
5:12 What business is it of mine to judge those outside the church? Are you not to judge those inside?
5:13 God will judge those outside. “Expel the wicked man from among you.”
5:1 It is actually reported that there is fornication among you, and such fornication that does not even occur among the Gentiles, that someone has his stepmother.
5:2 And you are puffed up? And have you not rather mourned, that the one who has done this deed might be removed from your midst?
5:3 For I, on my part, though being absent in the body but present in the spirit, have already judged, as if being present, him who has thus done this,
5:4 In the name of our Lord Jesus, when you and my spirit have been assembled, with the power of our Lord Jesus,
5:5 To deliver such a one to Satan for the destruction of his flesh, that his spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord.
5:6 Your boasting is not good. Do you not know that a little leaven leavens the whole lump?
5:7 Purge out the old leaven that you may be a new lump, even as you are unleavened; for our Passover, Christ, also has been sacrificed.
5:8 So then let us keep the feast, not with old leaven, neither with the leaven of malice and evil, but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.
5:9 I wrote to you in my letter not to mingle with fornicators,
5:10 But not altogether with the fornicators of this world, or with the covetous and rapacious, or idolaters, since then you would have to go out of the world.
5:11 But now I have written to you not to mingle with anyone who is called a brother, if he is a fornicator or a covetous man or an idolater or a reviler or a drunkard or a rapacious man, with such a one not even to eat.
5:12 For what have I to do with judging those who are outside the church? Do you not judge those who are within the church?
5:13 But those who are outside, God will judge. Remove the evil man from among yourselves.
