| 3For though absent in body, I am present in spirit; and as if present, I have already pronounced judgment on the one who did such a thing. | 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. |
| 4When you are assembled in the name of the Lord Jesus and my spirit is present, with the power of our Lord Jesus, | 4In the name of our Lord Jesus, when you are assembled, and I with you in spirit, with the power of our Lord Jesus, |

| 9I wrote to you in my letter not to associate with sexually immoral people— | 9I wrote you in my letter not to associate with immoral people; |

| 12For what have I to do with judging outsiders? Is it not those inside the church whom you are to judge? | 12For what have I to do with judging outsiders? Do you not judge those who are within the church? |
