| 1[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 1It is actually reported that there is sexual immorality among you, and of a kind that even pagans do not tolerate: A man is sleeping with his father's wife. |
| 2[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 2And you are proud! Shouldn't you rather have gone into mourning and have put out of your fellowship the man who has been doing this? |
| 3[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 3For my part, even though I am not physically present, I am with you in spirit. As one who is present with you in this way, I have already passed judgment in the name of our Lord Jesus on the one who has been doing this. |
| 4[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 4So when you are assembled and I am with you in spirit, and the power of our Lord Jesus is present, |
| 5[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 5hand 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[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 6Your boasting is not good. Don't you know that a little yeast leavens the whole batch of dough? |
| 7[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 7Get rid of the old yeast, so that you may be a new unleavened batch--as you really are. For Christ, our Passover lamb, has been sacrificed. |
| 8[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 8Therefore let us keep the Festival, not with the old bread leavened with malice and wickedness, but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth. |
| 9[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 9I wrote to you in my letter not to associate with sexually immoral people-- |
| 10[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 10not at all meaning the people of this world who are immoral, or the greedy and swindlers, or idolaters. In that case you would have to leave this world. |
| 11[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 11But now I am writing to you that you must not associate with anyone who claims to be a brother or sister but is sexually immoral or greedy, an idolater or slanderer, a drunkard or swindler. Do not even eat with such people. |
| 12[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 12What business is it of mine to judge those outside the church? Are you not to judge those inside? |
| 13[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 13God will judge those outside. "Expel the wicked person from among you." |
