1 Corinthians 5
ISV Parallel KJV [BSB CSB ESV HCS KJV ISV NAS NET NIV NLT GRK]
International Standard VersionKing James Bible
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 reported commonly that there is fornication among you, and such fornication as is not so much as named among the Gentiles, that one should have 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. 2And ye are puffed up, and have not rather mourned, that he that hath done this deed might be taken away from among you.
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 verily, as absent in body, but present in spirit, have judged already, as though I were present, concerning him that hath so done this deed,
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 Christ, when ye are gathered together, and my spirit, with the power of our Lord Jesus Christ,
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. 5To deliver such an one unto Satan for the destruction of the flesh, that the 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 glorying is not good. Know ye not that a little leaven leaveneth the whole lump?
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. 7Purge out therefore the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump, as ye are unleavened. For even Christ our passover is sacrificed for us:
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 keep the feast, not with old leaven, neither 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 unto you in an epistle not to company with fornicators:
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. 10Yet not altogether with the fornicators of this world, or with the covetous, or extortioners, or with idolaters; for then must ye needs 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 now I have written unto you not to keep company, if any man that is called a brother be a fornicator, or covetous, or an idolater, or a railer, or a drunkard, or an extortioner; with such an one no not to eat.
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 to judge them also that are without? do not ye judge them that are within?
13God will judge outsiders. "Expel that wicked man." 13But them that are without God judgeth. Therefore put away from among yourselves that wicked person.
