< 1 Corinthians 5 >

1 In short, it is reported, there is whoredom among you; and such whoredom as is not even named among the heathen, that a son should even take the wife of his father.
It is actually reported that there is sexual immorality among you, and such sexual immorality as is not even among the nations, that one has his father's wife.
2 And ye are inflated, and have not rather sitten down in grief, that he who hath done this deed might be separated from you.
You are puffed up, and did not rather mourn, that he who had done this deed might be removed from among you.
3 And I, while distant from you in body but present with you in spirit, have already, as if present, judged him who perpetrateth this deed;
For I most certainly, as being absent in body but present in spirit, have already, as though I were present, judged him who has done this thing.
4 that ye all assemble together, in the name of our Lord Jesus Messiah, and I with you in spirit, together with the energy of our Lord Jesus Messiah;
In the name of our Lord Yeshua, you being gathered together, and my spirit, with the power of our Lord Yeshua,
5 and that ye deliver him over to Satan, for the destruction of the flesh, that in spirit he may have life, in the day of our Lord Jesus Messiah.
are to deliver such a one to Satan for the destruction of the flesh, that the spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord.
6 Your glorying is not praiseworthy. Know ye not, that a little leaven leaveneth the whole mass?
Your boasting is not good. Do you not know that a little hametz leavens the whole lump?
7 Purge out from you the old leaven, that ye may be a new mass, as ye are unleavened. For our passover is the Messiah, who was slain for us.
Purge out the old hametz, that you may be a new lump, even as you are unleavened. For indeed Messiah, our Passover lamb, has been sacrificed for us.
8 Therefore let us celebrate the festival, not with the old leaven, nor with the leaven of wickedness and bitterness, but with the leaven of purity and sanctity.
Therefore let us keep the feast, not with old yeast, neither with the hametz of malice and wickedness, but with the matzah of sincerity and truth.
9 I wrote to you by letter, not to commingle with whoremongers.
I wrote to you in my letter to have no company with sexual sinners;
10 But I say not, with the whoremongers who are in the world, nor speak I of the avaricious, or of the rapacious, or of the idol-worshippers, otherwise ye would be obliged to go out of the world.
yet not at all meaning with the sexual sinners of this world, or with the covetous and extortioners, or with idolaters; for then you would have to leave the world.
11 But this is what I wrote to you, that ye commingle not, if any one is called a brother, and is a whoremonger, or avaricious, or an idol-worshipper, or a railer, or a drunkard, or rapacious, with him who is such, not even to eat bread.
But as it is, I wrote to you not to associate with anyone who is called a brother who is a sexual sinner, or covetous, or an idolater, or a slanderer, or a drunkard, or an extortioner. Do not even eat with such a person.
12 For what business have I to judge them who are without? But those within the body, judge ye,
For what have I to do with also judging those who are outside? Do you not judge those who are within?
13 and those without, God judgeth; and remove ye the wickedness from among you.
But those who are outside, God judges. "Put away the wicked person from among yourselves."
