1 It is commonly reported that there is lewdness among
you, and such lewdness as is not named even amongst
the heathens, that one should have his father's wife.
2 And are ye puffed up, and have not rather grieved?
that he who hath committed this fact might be expelled
from among you?
3 For I indeed, note absent in
body, but present in spirit, have already, as if I were
present, judged him who hath note wrought this wickedness:
in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ,
4 when ye
are assembled together note with my spirit, note by the power,
I say,
5 of our Lord Jesus Christ, to deliver such a one
unto Satan for the destruction of the flesh, that the
spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus.
Your boasting is not good.
6 Do ye not know that a
little leaven leaveneth the whole mass?
7 Purge out
therefore the old leaven, that ye may be a new mass, note
without leaven. For our paschal lamb, even Christ,
was note slain for us.
8 Wherefore let us keep the feast, not
with the old leaven, nor with the leaven of malice and
wickedness, but with the unleavening of sincerity and
truth.
9 I wrote to you in an epistle, not to associate with
whoremongers:
10 but I did not mean not at all with the
whoremongers of this world, or the covetous, or
-- --
rapacious, or idolaters: since ye must then go out of
the world.
11 But now I have written to you, not to
associate with him, if any one, that is called a brother, be
a whoremonger, or covetous, or an idolater, or a railer,
or a drunkard, or rapacious; with such a one no not to
eat.
12 For what have I to do to judge those that vre
without? and do not ye judge those that are within?
13 But those who are without, God judgeth: and therefore
put away the wicked one from note among you.
