KJ3 Literal Translation
1 Corinthians 5
1 The incestuous person 6 is cause of shame. 7 The old leaven is to be purged out.
1Everywhere it is heard that fornication is among you, and such fornication which is not named among the heathen, so as for someone to have his father’s wife.
2And you are being puffed up, and have not rather mourned, that he that did this deed might be taken from your midst.
3For as being absent in body, but being present in spirit, I have already judged the one who has perpetrated this deed, as being present:
4In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, you being assembled with my spirit also, with the power of our Lord Jesus Christ,
5to give over such a one to Satan for destruction of the flesh, that the spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus.
6Your boast is not good. Do you not know that a little leaven leavens all the lump?
7Therefore clean out the old leaven so that you may be a new lump, even as you are unleavened. For also Christ our Passover was sacrificed for us.
8So then let us keep the feast, not with old leaven, nor with leaven of malice and of wickedness, but with unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.
9I wrote to you in the letter not to associate with fornicators;
10and not altogether with the fornicators of this world, or with the covetous one, or with rapacious ones, or with idolaters, since then you must go out of the world.
11But now I wrote to you not to associate intimately; if anyone being named a brother and is either a fornicator, or a covetous one, or an idolater, or a reviler, or a drunkard, or a rapacious one, with such a one not to eat.
12For what is it to me also to judge the ones outside? Do you not judge those inside?
13But God will judge the ones outside. “And take away from yourselves the wicked one.” Deut. 17:7
