1It is everywhere reported that there is fornication among you, and such fornication as is not even among the gentiles, that one should have his father’s wife. 2And ye are puffed up, and did not rather mourn, so that he that committed this deed might be separated from among you. 3For I, for my part, though absent in the body, yet present in the spirit have already determined, as if I were present with you, respecting him who thus wrought this deed, 4in the name of our Lord Jesus, when you and my spirit with you are assembled together, with the power of our Lord Jesus, 5to deliver such a man over to Satan for the destruction of his flesh, that his spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord. 6Your glorying is not good. Know ye not, that a little leaven leaveneth the whole lump? 7Cleanse out the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump, as ye are unleavened; for our passover also hath been sacrificed, even Christ. 8So then let us keep the feast, not with the old leaven, nor with the leaven of malice and wickedness, but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth. 9I wrote to you in that letter, not to keep company with fornicators; 10certainly not meaning the fornicators of this world, or the covetous and extortioners, or idolaters; for to do this ye must go out of the world. 11But this is what I wrote you, not to keep company with any one called a brother, if he be a fornicator, or covetous, or an idolater, or a reviler, or a drunkard, or an extortioner; with such a one not even to eat. 12For what have I to do with judging those who are without? Do not ye judge those who are within? 13But those who are without, God will judge. Do ye put away that bad man from among yourselves.
