Christian Standard BibleInternational Standard Version
1It is actually reported that there is sexual immorality among you, and the kind of sexual immorality that is not even tolerated among the Gentiles--a man is sleeping with his father's wife.1It is actually reported that sexual immorality exists among you, and of a kind that is not found even among the gentiles. A man is actually living with his father's wife!
2And you are arrogant! Shouldn't you be filled with grief and remove from your congregation the one who did this?2And you are being arrogant instead of being filled with grief and seeing to it that the man who did this is removed from among you.
3Even though I am absent in the body, I am present in spirit. As one who is present with you in this way, I have already pronounced judgment on the one who has been doing such a thing.3Even though I am away from you physically, I am with you in spirit. I have already passed judgment on the man who did this, as though I were present with you.
4When you are assembled in the name of our Lord Jesus, and I am with you in spirit, with the power of our Lord Jesus,4In the name of our Lord Jesus, when you are gathered together (and I am there in spirit), and the power of our Lord Jesus is there, too,
5hand that one over to Satan for the destruction of the flesh, so that his spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord.5turn this man over to Satan for the destruction of his body, so that his spirit may be saved on the Day of the Lord.
6Your boasting is not good. Don't you know that a little leaven leavens the whole batch of dough?6Your boasting is not good. You know that a little yeast leavens the whole batch of dough, don't you?
7Clean out the old leaven so that you may be a new unleavened batch, as indeed you are. For Christ our Passover lamb has been sacrificed.7Get rid of the old yeast so that you may be a new batch of dough, since you are to be free from yeast. For the Messiah, our Passover, has been sacrificed.
8Therefore, let us observe the feast, not with old leaven or with the leaven of malice and evil, but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.8So let's keep celebrating the festival, neither with old yeast nor with yeast that is evil and wicked, but with yeast-free bread that is both sincere and true.
9I wrote to you in a letter not to associate with sexually immoral people.9I wrote to you in my letter to stop associating with people who are sexually immoral—
10I did not mean the immoral people of this world or the greedy and swindlers or idolaters; otherwise you would have to leave the world.10not at all meaning the people of this world who are immoral, greedy, robbers, or idolaters. In that case you would have to leave this world.
11But actually, I wrote you not to associate with anyone who claims to be a brother or sister and is sexually immoral or greedy, an idolater or verbally abusive, a drunkard or a swindler. Do not even eat with such a person.11But now I am writing to you to stop associating with any so-called brother if he is sexually immoral, greedy, an idolater, a slanderer, a drunk, or a robber. You must even stop eating with someone like that.
12For what business is it of mine to judge outsiders? Don't you judge those who are inside?12After all, is it my business to judge outsiders? You are to judge those who are in the community, aren't you?
13God judges outsiders. Remove the evil person from among you.13God will judge outsiders. "Expel that wicked man."
