| Wycliffe (WYC) | New International Version (NIV) |
| 1 Yet all manner of fornication is heard among you, and such fornication, which is not among heathen men, so that some man have the wife of his father [so that one man have the wife of his father]. | 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 be swollen with pride [And ye be blown with pride], and not more had wailing, that he that did this work, be taken away from the middle of 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 And I absent in body [Soothly I absent in body], but present in spirit, now have deemed as present him that hath thus wrought, | 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 when ye be gathered together in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, and my spirit, with the virtue of the 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 betake such a man to Satan, into the perishing of flesh, that the spirit be safe in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ. | 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 sourdough impaireth all the gobbet [that a little sourdough corrupteth all the gobbet]? | 6 Your boasting is not good. Don't you know that a little yeast works through the whole batch of dough? |
| 7 Cleanse ye out the old sourdough, that ye be new sprinkling together, as ye be therf. For Christ offered is our pask. [Cleanse ye out old sourdough, that ye be new sprinkling together, as ye be therf, or without souring. Forsooth Christ is offered our pask.] | 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 Therefore eat we, not in old sourdough, neither in sourdough of malice and waywardness, but in therf things of clearness and of truth [of clearness 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 to you in an epistle, that ye be not mixed with lechers, [I wrote to you in an epistle, that ye be not mingled, or commune not, with lechers,] | 9 I have written you in my letter not to associate with sexually immoral people-- |
| 10 not with lechers of this world, nor with covetous men, nor raveners, nor with men serving to maumets [+soothly not with lechers of this world, or with covetous men, or raveners, or with men serving to idols], else ye should have gone out of this 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 now I have written to you, that ye be not mixed [Now soothly I wrote to you, to be not mingled, or commune not with such]. If he that is named a brother among you, and is a lecher, or covetous, or serving to idols, or a curser, or full of drunkenness, or a ravener, to take no meat with such [with such neither to take meat]. | 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 is it to me to deem of them that be withoutforth? Whether ye deem not of things that be withinforth? [Forsooth what to me to deem of them that be withoutforth. Whether ye deem not of them that be withinforth?] | 12 What business is it of mine to judge those outside the church? Are you not to judge those inside? |
| 13 For God shall deem them that be withoutforth. Do ye away evil from yourselves. | 13 God will judge those outside. "Expel the wicked man from among you." |
