1 Corinthians 5

1 On all hands, there is reported to be among you—fornication, and such fornication as this—which, not among the nations, [is found], —as that one should have, his father’s wife: —

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, have become puffed up, and have not rather mourned, in order that he might be removed out of your midst, who, this deed, hath wrought.

And all of you are puffed up, and have not rather mourned, that he that has done this deed might be taken away from among you.

3 For, I, indeed, —being absent in the body, but present in the spirit, have already judged, as present, him who, thus, this thing hath perpetrated: —

For I verily, as absent in body, but present in spirit, (pneuma) have judged already, as though I were present, concerning him that has so done this deed,

4 In the name of our Lord Jesus, ye being gathered together, and my spirit, with the power of our Lord Jesus,

In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, when all of you are gathered together, and my spirit, (pneuma) with the power of our Lord Jesus Christ,

5 To deliver such a one as this, unto Satan, for the destruction of the flesh, —that, the spirit, may be saved in the day of the Lord.

To deliver such an one unto Satan for the destruction of the flesh, that the spirit (pneuma) may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus.

6 Unseemly, is your boast! Know ye not that, a little leaven, doth leaven, the whole of the lump?

Your glorying is not good. Know all of you not that a little leaven leavens the whole lump?

7 Purge ye out the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump, —even as ye are unleavened; for, our passover, hath even been sacrificed—Christ:

Purge out therefore the old leaven, that all of you may be a new lump, as all of you are unleavened. For even Christ our passover is sacrificed for us:

8 So then, let us be keeping the feast, not with old leaven, nor with leaven of baseness and wickedness, —but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.

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 my letter—not to be mixing yourselves up with fornicators; —

I wrote unto you in an epistle not to company with fornicators:

10 Not at all, [meaning] the fornicators of this world, or the covetous and extortioners, or idolaters, —else had ye been obliged, in that case, to go out of the world!

Yet not altogether with the fornicators of this world, or with the covetous, or extortionists, or with idolaters; for then must all of you essentially go out of the world.

11 But, now, I have written unto you not to be mixing yourselves up, —if anyone named a brother, be a fornicator, or covetous, or an idolater, or a reviler, or a drunkard, or an extortioner, with such a one as this, not so much, as to be eating together,

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 reviler, or a drunkard, or an extortionist; with such an one no not to eat.

12 For what have I to do to be judging them who are without? Do, ye, not judge, them who are within,

For what have I to do to judge them also that are without? do not all of you judge them that are within?

13 Whereas, them who are without, God, judgeth? Remove ye the wicked man from among, yourselves.

But them that are without God judges. Therefore put away from among yourselves that wicked person.
