arch...@jab.org Paul's First Letter to the Corinthians, Chapter 5
{5:1} 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. {5:2} You are puffed up, and didn't rather mourn, that he who had done this deed might be removed from among you. {5:3} For I most certainly, as being absent in body but present in spirit, have already, as though I were present, judged him who has done this thing. {5:4} In the name of our Lord Yeshua the Messiah, you being gathered together, and my spirit, with the power of our Lord Yeshua the Messiah, {5:5} 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 Yeshua. {5:6} Your boasting is not good. Don't you know that a little yeast leavens the whole lump? {5:7} Purge out the old yeast, that you may be a new lump, even as you are unleavened. For indeed Messiah, our Passover, has been sacrificed in our place. {5:8} 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. {5:9} I wrote to you in my letter to have no company with sexual sinners; {5:10} 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. {5:11} But as it is, I wrote to you not to associate with anyone who is called a brother who 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. {5:12} For what have I to do with also judging those who are outside? Don't you judge those who are within? {5:13} But those who are outside, God judges. "Put away the wicked man from among yourselves."[1] ________________________________________________________________________ Footnotes: [1] {5:13} Deuteronomy 17:7; 19:19; 21:21; 22:21; 24:7 ________________________________________________________________________ The World English Bible: Messianic Edition is in the Public Domain.
