| 1It is actually reported that sexual immorality exists among you, and of a kind that is not found even among the gentiles. A man is actually living with his father's wife! | 1It is actually reported that there is immorality among you, and immorality of such a kind as does not exist even among the Gentiles, that someone has his father's wife. |
| 2And you are being arrogant instead of being filled with grief and seeing to it that the man who did this is removed from among you. | 2You have become arrogant and have not mourned instead, so that the one who had done this deed would be removed from your midst. |
| 3Even though I am away from you physically, I am with you in spirit. I have already passed judgment on the man who did this, as though I were present with you. | 3For I, on my part, though absent in body but present in spirit, have already judged him who has so committed this, as though I were present. |
| 4In the name of our Lord Jesus, when you are gathered together (and I am there in spirit), and the power of our Lord Jesus is there, too, | 4In the name of our Lord Jesus, when you are assembled, and I with you in spirit, with the power of our Lord Jesus, |
| 5turn this man over to Satan for the destruction of his body, so that his spirit may be saved on the Day of the Lord. | 5I have decided to deliver such a one to Satan for the destruction of his flesh, so that his spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus. |
| 6Your boasting is not good. You know that a little yeast leavens the whole batch of dough, don't you? | 6Your boasting is not good. Do you not know that a little leaven leavens the whole lump of dough? |
| 7Get rid of the old yeast so that you may be a new batch of dough, since you are to be free from yeast. For the Messiah, our Passover, has been sacrificed. | 7Clean out the old leaven so that you may be a new lump, just as you are in fact unleavened. For Christ our Passover also has been sacrificed. |
| 8So let's keep celebrating the festival, neither with old yeast nor with yeast that is evil and wicked, but with yeast-free bread that is both sincere and true. | 8Therefore let us celebrate the feast, not with old leaven, nor with the leaven of malice and wickedness, but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth. |
| 9I wrote to you in my letter to stop associating with people who are sexually immoral— | 9I wrote you in my letter not to associate with immoral people; |
| 10not at all meaning the people of this world who are immoral, greedy, robbers, or idolaters. In that case you would have to leave this world. | 10I did not at all mean with the immoral people of this world, or with the covetous and swindlers, or with idolaters, for then you would have to go out of the world. |
| 11But now I am writing to you to stop associating with any so-called brother if he is sexually immoral, greedy, an idolater, a slanderer, a drunk, or a robber. You must even stop eating with someone like that. | 11But actually, I wrote to you not to associate with any so-called brother if he is an immoral person, or covetous, or an idolater, or a reviler, or a drunkard, or a swindler-- not even to eat with such a one. |
| 12After all, is it my business to judge outsiders? You are to judge those who are in the community, aren't you? | 12For what have I to do with judging outsiders? Do you not judge those who are within the church? |
| 13God will judge outsiders. "Expel that wicked man." | 13But those who are outside, God judges. REMOVE THE WICKED MAN FROM AMONG YOURSELVES. |
