Chapter 5
5:1 It is actually reported that there is fornication among you, and such fornication as is not even named among the Gentiles, that a man has his father's wife.
1st Corinthians
5:2 But you are arrogant. Instead you should have mourned, so that he who has done this deed might be removed from among you.
5:3 For indeed, though absent in body but present in spirit, I have already, as if I were present, judged him who has done this deed,
5:4 in the name of our Master YASHUWAH the Messiah. When you are assembled, along with my spirit, in the power of our Master YASHUWAH the Messiah,
5:5 deliver him to Satan for the destruction of the flesh, so that the spirit may be saved on the day of the Master YASHUWAH.
5:6 Your boasting is not good. Do you not know that a little yeast leavens the whole batch?
5:7 Therefore purge out the old yeast, that you may be a new batch, since you are unleavened. For even the Messiah, our Passover, has been sacrificed for us.
5:8 Therefore let us keep the feast, not with old yeast, nor with the yeast of malice and wickedness, but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.
5:9 I wrote to you in my letter not to keep company with fornicators:
5:10 Yet I did not mean the fornicators people of this world, or the covetous and extortioners, or the idolaters, since you would then need to go out of the world.
5:11 But I have written to you not to keep company with any man who is called a brother, who is fornicator, or covetous, or an idolater, or a reviler, or a drunkard, or an extortioner. Do not even eat with such a person.
5:12 For what have I to do with judging those also who are outside? Do you not judge those who are inside?
5:13 But Elohim judges those who are outside. Therefore “put away from among yourselves that wicked person.”
