5:1 Fornication is heard literally to be among you* (and such fornication which is not even named among the Gentiles), that someone has his father's wife.
5:2 And you* are arrogant and did not rather mourn, that* he who had done this work might be taken away out of your* midst.
5:3 For* indeed, as being absent in body, but being present* in spirit, I have already judged him thus who has worked this, (as though I were present*),
5:4 in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. When you* and my spirit are gathered together with the power of our Lord Jesus,
5:5 to give such a one to the Adversary *for the utter-ruin of the flesh, that* the spirit might be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus.
5:6 Your* boasting is not good. Do you* not know that a little leaven leavens the whole batch?
5:7 Clean out the old leaven, that* you* may be a new batch, just-as you* are unleavened. For* Christ our Passover has also been sacrificed on our behalf.
5:8 So-then we should celebrate the festival, not with old leaven, nor with the leaven of malice and wickedness, but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.
5:9 I have written to you* in my letter not to socialize with fornicators;
5:10 and certainly not meaning with the fornicators of this world or with the greedy and swindlers or with idolaters; otherwise, you* are consequently* obligated to go forth out of the world.
5:11 But now, I have written to you* not to socialize with anyone who is named a brother, if he is either a fornicator or greedy or an idolater or a reviler or a drunkard or a swindler; do not even eat with such a person.
5:12 For* what do I even have to do with judging those who are outside? Do you* not judge those who are inside?
5:13 But God will judge those who are outside and take away the evil man from among yourselves.
