1It is reported commonly that there is fornication among you, and such fornication as is not so much as named among the Gentiles, that one should have his father's wife.1It is widely 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 living with his father's wife.
2And ye are puffed up, and have not rather mourned, that he that hath done this deed might be taken away from among you.2And you are inflated with pride, instead of filled with grief so that he who has committed this act might be removed from your congregation.
3For I verily, as absent in body, but present in spirit, have judged already, as though I were present, concerning him that hath so done this deed,3For though I am absent in body but present in spirit, I have already decided about the one who has done this thing as though I were present.
4In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, when ye are gathered together, and my spirit, with the power of our Lord Jesus Christ,4When you are assembled in the name of our Lord Jesus with my spirit and with the power of our Lord Jesus,
5To deliver such an one unto Satan for the destruction of the flesh, that the spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus.5turn that one over to Satan for the destruction of the flesh, so that his spirit may be saved in the Day of the Lord.
6Your glorying is not good. Know ye not that a little leaven leaveneth the whole lump?6Your boasting is not good. Don't you know that a little yeast permeates the whole batch of dough?
7Purge out therefore the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump, as ye are unleavened. For even Christ our passover is sacrificed for us:7Clean out the old yeast so that you may be a new batch. You are indeed unleavened, for Christ our Passover has been sacrificed.
8Therefore let us keep the feast, not with old leaven, neither with the leaven of malice and wickedness; but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.8Therefore, let us observe the feast, not with old yeast or with the yeast of malice and evil but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.
9I wrote unto you in an epistle not to company with fornicators:9I wrote to you in a letter not to associate with sexually immoral people.
10Yet not altogether with the fornicators of this world, or with the covetous, or extortioners, or with idolaters; for then must ye needs go out of the world.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.
11But now I have written unto you not to keep company, if any man that is called a brother be a fornicator, or covetous, or an idolater, or a railer, or a drunkard, or an extortioner; with such an one no not to eat.11But now I am writing you not to associate with anyone who claims to be a believer who is sexually immoral or greedy, an idolater or verbally abusive, a drunkard or a swindler. Do not even eat with such a person.
12For what have I to do to judge them also that are without? do not ye judge them that are within?12For what business is it of mine to judge outsiders? Don't you judge those who are inside?
13But them that are without God judgeth. Therefore put away from among yourselves that wicked person.13But God judges outsiders. Put away the evil person from among yourselves.
