1 Kolinitō 5

1 ‌ʻOku fakaongo lahi mai ʻoku ai ʻae feʻauaki ʻiate kimoutolu, pea ko e feʻauaki pehē ʻoku ʻikai siʻi lau ki ai ʻi he kakai Senitaile, ʻo pehē ke maʻu ʻe ha taha ʻae uaifi ʻo ʻene tamai.

We heard a report that there is sexual immorality among you, a kind of immorality that is not even permitted among the Gentiles. The report is that one of you is sleeping with his father's wife.

2 Pea ʻoku mou anga fakafiefielahi, kae ʻikai te mou mamahi muʻa, koeʻuhi ko ia kuo ne fai ʻae meʻa ni, ke tukuange ia ʻiate kimoutolu.

You are so arrogant! Should you not mourn instead? The one who did this must be removed from among you.

3 He ko e moʻoni, ko au ʻoku ou mamaʻo ʻi he sino, ka ʻoku ou ʻi ai ʻi he laumālie, kuo u fakamaauʻi ʻaia naʻe fai ʻae ngāue ni, ʻo hangē kuo u ʻi ai,

For even though I am absent in body, I am present in spirit. I have already passed judgment on the one who did this, just as though I were there.

4 ‌ʻI hoʻomou fakataha ʻi he huafa ʻo hotau ʻEiki ko Sisu Kalaisi, mo hoku laumālie, mo e mālohi ʻa hotau ʻEiki ko Sisu Kalaisi.

When you are assembled in the name of our Lord Jesus and I am with you in spirit, and the power of our Lord Jesus is present,

5 Ke tukuange ʻae tokotaha pehē kia Sētane ke maumau ai ʻae sino, kae fakamoʻui ʻae laumālie ʻi he ʻaho ʻoe ʻEiki ko Sisu.

hand this man over to Satan for the destruction of the flesh, so that his spirit may be saved on the day of the Lord.

6 Ko hoʻomou vikiviki ʻoku ʻikai lelei. ʻIkai ʻoku mou ʻilo “Ko e meʻa fakatupu siʻi ʻoku ne fakatupuʻi ʻae takaonga kotoa?”

Your boasting is not good. Do you not know that a little yeast leavens the whole loaf?

7 Ko ia ke tafi kituʻa ʻae meʻa fakatupu motuʻa, koeʻuhi ʻi he ʻikai ha meʻa fakatupu ʻiate kimoutolu, ke mou hoko ko e takaonga foʻou. He ko Kalaisi ko ho tau [feilaulau ʻoe ]Lakaatu, kuo hifo ʻaki maʻatautolu.

Cleanse yourselves of the old yeast so that you may be new dough, so that you may be unleavened bread. For Christ, our Passover lamb, has been sacrificed.

8 Ko ia ke tau fai ʻae kātoanga, kae ʻikai ʻi he meʻa fakatupu motuʻa, pe ʻi he ʻi meʻa fakatupu ʻoe fakafasifasi mo e angahala; ka ʻi he [mā ]taʻemeʻafakatupu ʻoe angatonu mo e moʻoni.

So let us then celebrate the festival, not with the old yeast, the yeast of bad behavior and wickedness. Instead, let us celebrate with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.

9 Kuo u tohi ʻi he tohi kiate kimoutolu, ke ʻoua naʻa mou fakataha mo e kau feʻauaki:

I wrote to you in my letter not to associate with sexually immoral people.

10 Ka ʻoku ʻikai ko e pehē pe, ki he kau feʻauaki ʻoe māmani, pe ko e kau manumanu, pe ko e kau fakamālohi, pe ko e kau tauhi tamapua; he ka ne pehē, tā te mou ʻalu pe ʻi he māmani.

In no way did I mean the immoral people of this world, or the greedy, or swindlers, or idolaters, since to stay away from them you would need to go out of the world.

11 Ka kuo u tohi eni kiate kimoutolu, ka ai ha taha ʻoku ui ko e kāinga, ka ʻoku feʻauaki, pe manumanu, pe tauhi tamapua, pe ko e manuki, pe ko e kona, pe ko e fakamālohi; ʻoua naʻa fakataha mo ha taha pehē, pea ʻoua naʻa kai mo ia.

But now I am writing to you not to associate with anyone who is called a brother but who is living in sexual immorality, or who is greedy, or is an idolater, or is verbally abusive, or is a drunkard, or a swindler. Do not even eat a meal with such a person.

12 He ko hai au ke u fakamaau ʻakinautolu ʻoku ʻi tuaʻā? ʻIkai ʻoku mou fakamaau ʻakinautolu ʻoku ʻi lotoʻā pe?

For how am I involved with judging those who are outside the church? Instead, are you not to judge those who are inside the church?

13 Ka ko kinautolu ʻoku ʻi tuaʻā ʻoku fakamaauʻi ʻe he ʻOtua. Ko ia ke “tukuange ʻiate kimoutolu ʻae tangata angahala ko ia.”

But God judges those who are on the outside. “Remove the evil person from among you.”
