I CORINTHIANS, CHAP. V.
IT 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.
2 And ye are puffed up, and have not rather mourned, that he that hath done this deed might be taken away from among you.
3 For 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,
4 In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, when
ye are gathered together, and my spirit, with the
power of our Lord Jesus Christ,
5 To 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 Christ.
6 Your glorying is not good. Know ye not,
that a little leaven leaveneth the whole lump?
7 Purge 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:
8 Therefore 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.
9 I wrote unto you in an epistle, not to company
with fornicators:
10 Yet 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.
11 But 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.
12 For what have I to do to judge them also that are without? de not ye judge them that are within?
13 But them that are without God judgeth. Therefore put away from among
yourselves that wicked person.
