Sexual Immorality Rebuked

¹ It is actually reported that there is sexual immorality among you, and sexual immorality of such a kind as does not exist even among the Gentiles, namely, that someone has ^(C1)his father's wife.^2 (F1)You ^(C1)have become ^(F2)arrogant and ^(F1)have not ^(C2)mourned instead, so that the one who had done this deed would be ^(C3)removed from your midst.

³ For I, on my part, though ^(C1)absent in body but present in spirit, have already judged him who has so committed this, as though I were present.^4 (C1)In the name of our Lord Jesus, when you are assembled, and ^(F1)I with you in spirit, ^(C2)with the power of our Lord Jesus,⁵ I have decided ^(F1)to ^(C1)turn such a person over to ^(C2)Satan for the destruction of his ^(F2)body, so that his spirit may be saved on ^(C3)the day of the ^(F3)Lord.

^6 (C1)Your boasting is not good. ^(C2)Do you not know that ^(C3)a little ^(F1)leaven leavens the whole lump of dough?⁷ Clean out the old leaven so that you may be a new lump, just as you are in fact unleavened. For Christ our ^(C1)Passover also has been sacrificed.⁸ Therefore let's celebrate the feast, ^(C1)not with old leaven, nor with the leaven of malice and wickedness, but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.

⁹ I wrote to you in my letter ^(C1)not to associate with sexually immoral people;¹⁰ I did not at all mean with the sexually immoral people of this world, or with the greedy and swindlers, or with ^(C1)idolaters, for then you would have to leave the world.¹¹ But ^(F1)actually, I ^(F2)wrote to you not to associate ^(F3)with any so-called ^(C1)brother if he is a sexually immoral person, or a greedy person, or ^(C2)an idolater, or is verbally abusive, or habitually drunk, or a swindler—not even to eat with such a person.¹² For what business of mine is it to judge ^(C1)outsiders? ^(C2)Do you not judge those who are within the church?¹³ But those who are outside, God ^(F1)judges. ^(C1)REMOVE THE EVIL PERSON FROM AMONG YOURSELVES.
