1 Corinthians 5

  1. 1It is universally reported [supplied: that there is] fornication among you, and such fornication as [supplied: is] not even among the nations, so that one should have his father's wife.
  2. 2And *ye* are puffed up, and ye have not rather mourned, in order that he that has done this deed might be taken away out of the midst of you.
  3. 3For *I*, [supplied: as] absent in body but present in spirit, have already judged as present,
  4. 4[supplied: to deliver,] in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ (ye and my spirit being gathered together, with the power of our Lord Jesus Christ), him that has so wrought this:
  5. 5to deliver him, [supplied: I say,] [supplied: being] such, to Satan for destruction of the flesh, that the spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus.
  6. 6Your boasting [supplied: is] not good. Do ye not know that a little leaven leavens the whole lump?
  7. 7Purge out the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump, according as ye are unleavened. For also our passover, Christ, has been sacrificed;
  8. 8so that let us celebrate the feast, not with old leaven, nor with leaven of malice and wickedness, but with unleavened [supplied: bread] of sincerity and truth.
  9. 9I have written to you in the epistle not to mix with fornicators;
  10. 10not altogether with the fornicators of this world, or with the avaricious and rapacious, or idolaters, since [supplied: then] ye should go out of the world.
  11. 11But now I have written to you, if any one called brother be fornicator, or avaricious, or idolater, or abusive, or a drunkard, or rapacious, not to mix with [supplied: him]; with such a one not even to eat.
  12. 12For what have *I* [supplied: to do] with judging those outside also? *ye*, do not ye judge them that are within?
  13. 13But those without God judges. Remove the wicked person from amongst yourselves.
