[1] It is actually reported that there is sexual immorality among you, and
such sexual immorality as is not even named among the Gentiles, that one
has his father`s wife. [2] You are puffed up, and didn`t rather mourn, that
he who had done this deed might be removed from among you. [3] For I most
assuredly, as being absent in body but present in spirit, have already, as
though I were present, judged him who has done this thing. [4] In the name
of our Lord Jesus Christ, you being gathered together, and my spirit, with
the power of our Lord Jesus Christ, [5] 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 Jesus. [6] Your boasting is not good. Don`t you know that a
little yeast leavens the whole lump? [7] Purge out the old yeast, that you
may be a new lump, even as you are unleavened. For indeed Christ, our
Passover, has been sacrificed in our place. [8] Therefore let us keep the
feast, not with old yeast, neither with the yeast of malice and wickedness,
but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth. [9] I wrote to you in
my letter to have no company with sexual sinners; [10] 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 as it is, I wrote to you not to keep company, if any man
who is named a brother is a sexual sinner, or covetous, or an idolater, or
a slanderer, or a drunkard, or an extortioner. Don`t even eat with such a
person. [12] For what have I to do with also judging those who are outside?
Don`t you judge those who are within? [13] But those who are outside, God
judges. "Put away the wicked man from among yourselves."
