New International Version (NIV) |
|
1 It is actually reported that there is fornication among you, and such fornication as is not even among the Gentiles, that one [of you] hath his father's wife.
|
1 It is actually reported that there is sexual immorality among you, and of a kind that does not occur even among pagans: A man has his father's wife.
|
|
2 And ye are puffed up, and did not rather mourn, that he that had done this deed might be taken away from among you.
|
2 And you are proud! Shouldn't you rather have been filled with grief and have put out of your fellowship the man who did this?
|
|
3 For I verily, being absent in body but present in spirit, have already as though I were present judged him that hath so wrought this thing,
|
3 Even though I am not physically present, I am with you in spirit. And I have already passed judgment on the one who did this, just as if I were present.
|
|
4 in the name of our Lord Jesus, ye being gathered together, and my spirit, with the power of our Lord Jesus,
|
4 When you are assembled in the name of our Lord Jesus and I am with you in spirit, and the power of our Lord Jesus is present,
|
|
5 to deliver such a one unto Satan for the destruction of the flesh, that the spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus.
|
5 hand this man over to Satan, so that the sinful nature may be destroyed and his spirit saved on the day of the Lord.
|
|
6 Your glorying is not good. Know ye not that a little leaven leaveneth the whole lump?
|
6 Your boasting is not good. Don't you know that a little yeast works through the whole batch of dough?
|
|
7 Purge out the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump, even as ye are unleavened. For our passover also hath been sacrificed, [even] Christ:
|
7 Get rid of the old yeast that you may be a new batch without yeast--as you really are. For Christ, our Passover lamb, has been sacrificed.
|
|
8 wherefore 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.
|
8 Therefore let us keep the Festival, not with the old yeast, the yeast of malice and wickedness, but with bread without yeast, the bread of sincerity and truth.
|
|
9 I wrote unto you in my epistle to have no company with fornicators;
|
9 I have written you in my letter not to associate with sexually immoral people--
|
|
10 not at all [meaning] with the fornicators of this world, or with the covetous and extortioners, or with idolaters; for then must ye needs go out of the world:
|
10 not at all meaning the people of this world who are immoral, or the greedy and swindlers, or idolaters. In that case you would have to leave this world.
|
|
11 but as it is, I wrote unto you not to keep company, if any man that is named a brother be a fornicator, or covetous, or an idolater, or a reviler, or a drunkard, or an extortioner; with such a one no, not to eat.
|
11 But now I am writing you that you must not associate with anyone who calls himself a brother but is sexually immoral or greedy, an idolater or a slanderer, a drunkard or a swindler. With such a man do not even eat.
|
|
12 For what have I to do with judging them that are without? Do not ye judge them that are within?
|
12 What business is it of mine to judge those outside the church? Are you not to judge those inside?
|
|
13 But them that are without God judgeth. Put away the wicked man from among yourselves.
|
13 God will judge those outside. "Expel the wicked man from among you."
