1. It is actually being said that there is sexual sin among you. And it is a kind that does not happen even among people who do not know God. A man there has his father's wife.
|
1. It is reported G191 commonly G3654 that there is fornication G4202 among G1722 you G5213 , and G2532 such G5108 fornication G4202 as G3748 is not so much as G3761 named G3687 among G1722 the G3588 Gentiles G1484 , that G5620 one G5100 should have G2192 his father G3962 's wife G1135 .
|
|
2. And you are proud! You should have been filled with sadness so that the man who did this should be put out of your group.
|
2. And G2532 ye G5210 are G2075 puffed up G5448 , and G2532 have not G3780 rather G3123 mourned G3996 , that G2443 he that hath done G4160 this G5124 deed G2041 might be taken away G1808 from G1537 among G3319 you G5216 .
|
|
3. I am not there with you in person, but I am with you in spirit. And I have already judged the man who did that sin as if I were really there.
|
3. For G1063 I G1473 verily G3303 , as G5613 absent G548 in body G4983 , but G1161 present G3918 in spirit G4151 , have judged G2919 already G2235 , as though G5613 I were present G3918 , concerning him that hath so done G2716 G3779 this deed G5124 .
|
|
4. When you meet together in the name of our Lord Jesus, and I meet with you in spirit with the power of our Lord Jesus,
|
4. In G1722 the G3588 name G3686 of our G2257 Lord G2962 Jesus G2424 Christ G5547 , when ye G5216 are gathered together G4863 , and G2532 my G1699 spirit G4151 , with G4862 the G3588 power G1411 of our G2257 Lord G2962 Jesus G2424 Christ G5547 ,
|
|
5. then hand this man over to Satan. So his sinful selfn will be destroyed, and his spirit will be saved on the day of the Lord.
|
5. To deliver G3860 such a one G5108 unto Satan G4567 for G1519 the destruction G3639 of the G3588 flesh G4561 , that G2443 the G3588 spirit G4151 may be saved G4982 in G1722 the G3588 day G2250 of the G3588 Lord G2962 Jesus G2424 .

6. Your bragging is not good. You know the saying, "Just a little yeast makes the whole batch of dough rise."
|
6. Your G5216 glorying G2745 is not G3756 good G2570 . Know G1492 ye not G3756 that G3754 a little G3398 leaven G2219 leaveneth G2220 the G3588 whole G3650 lump G5445 ?
|
|
7. Take out all the old yeast so that you will be a new batch of dough without yeast, which you really are. For Christ, our Passover lamb, has been sacrificed.
|
7. Purge out G1571 therefore G3767 the G3588 old G3820 leaven G2219 , that G2443 ye may be G5600 a new G3501 lump G5445 , as G2531 ye are G2075 unleavened G106 . For G1063 even G2532 Christ G5547 our G2257 passover G3957 is sacrificed G2380 for G5228 us G2257 :
|
|
8. So let us celebrate this feast, but not with the bread that has the old yeast -- the yeast of sin and wickedness. Let us celebrate this feast with the bread that has no yeast -- the bread of goodness and truth.
|
8. Therefore G5620 let us keep the feast G1858 , not G3361 with G1722 old G3820 leaven G2219 , neither G3366 with G1722 the leaven G2219 of malice G2549 and G2532 wickedness G4189 ; but G235 with G1722 the unleavened G106 bread of sincerity G1505 and G2532 truth G225 .
|
|
9. I wrote you in my earlier letter not to associate with those who sin sexually.
|
9. I wrote G1125 unto you G5213 in G1722 an epistle G1992 not G3361 to company with G4874 fornicators G4205 :
|
|
10. But I did not mean you should not associate with those of this world who sin sexually, or with the greedy, or robbers, or those who worship idols. To get away from them you would have to leave this world.
|
10. Yet G2532 not G3756 altogether G3843 the G3588 fornicators G4205 of this G5127 world G2889 , or G2228 with the G3588 covetous G4123 , or G2228 extortioners G727 , or G2228 with idolaters G1496 ; for G1893 then G686 must ye needs G3784 go G1831 out of G1537 the G3588 world G2889 .
|
|
11. I am writing to tell you that you must not associate with those who call themselves believers in Christ but who sin sexually, or are greedy, or worship idols, or abuse others with words, or get drunk, or cheat people. Do not even eat with people like that.
|
11. But G1161 now G3570 I have written G1125 unto you G5213 not G3361 to keep company G4874 , if G1437 any man G5100 that is called G3687 a brother G80 be a fornicator G4205 , or G2228 covetous G4123 , or G2228 an idolater G1496 , or G2228 a railer G3060 , or G2228 a drunkard G3183 , or G2228 an extortioner G727 ; with such a one G5108 no not G3366 to eat G4906 .
