1 'n Mens hoor waarlik van hoerery onder julle, en hoerery van so 'n aard as wat selfs onder die heidene nie bekend is nie: dat iemand die vrou van sy vader het.

2 En tog is julle opgeblase in plaas dat julle liewer getreur het, sodat hy wat hierdie daad gedoen het, kan verwyder word onder julle uit.

3 Want wat my betref, het ek, liggaamlik afwesig maar in die gees teenwoordig, alreeds besluit asof ek teenwoordig was, om hom wat so iets gedoen het,

4 in die Naam van onse Here Jesus Christus, as julle vergader het en my gees saam met die krag van onse Here Jesus Christus --

5 om so iemand aan die Satan oor te lewer tot verderf van die vlees, sodat die gees gered kan word in die dag van die Here Jesus.

6 Julle roem is nie mooi nie. Weet julle nie dat 'n bietjie suurdeeg die hele deeg suur maak nie?

7 Suiwer dan die ou suurdeeg uit, sodat julle 'n nuwe deeg kan wees -- soos julle inderdaad ongesuurd is -- want ook ons paaslam is vir ons geslag, naamlik Christus.

8 Laat ons dan feesvier, nie met die ou suurdeeg of met die suurdeeg van ondeug en boosheid nie, maar met die ongesuurde brode van reinheid en waarheid.

9 Ek het julle in my brief geskrywe om nie met hoereerders om te gaan nie --

10 dit wil sê, nie die hoereerders van hierdie wêreld of die gierigaards of rowers of afgodedienaars in die algemeen nie, want dan sou julle uit die wêreld moet uitgaan --

11 maar nou skryf ek aan julle om nie om te gaan met iemand wat, al staan hy as 'n broeder bekend, 'n hoereerder is of 'n gierigaard of 'n afgodedienaar of 'n kwaadspreker of 'n dronkaard of 'n rower nie; met so iemand moet julle selfs nie saam eet nie.

12 Want waarom sou ek ook die wat buite is, oordeel? Oordeel julle nie die wat binne is nie?

13 Maar die wat buite is, oordeel God. Verwyder tog die slegte mens onder julle uit.

1 It is said, in fact, that there is among you a sin of the flesh, such as is not seen even among the Gentiles, that one of you has his father's wife.

2 And in place of feeling sorrow, you are pleased with yourselves, so that he who has done this thing has not been sent away from among you.

3 For I myself, being present in spirit though not in body, have come to a decision about him who has done this thing;

4 In the name of our Lord Jesus, when you have come together with my spirit, with the power of our Lord Jesus,

5 That this man is to be handed over to Satan for the destruction of the flesh, so that his spirit may have forgiveness in the day of the Lord Jesus.

6 This pride of yours is not good. Do you not see that a little leaven makes a change in all the mass?

7 Take away, then, the old leaven, so that you may be a new mass, even as you are without leaven. For Christ has been put to death as our Passover.

8 Let us then keep the feast, not with old leaven, and not with the leaven of evil thoughts and acts, but with the unleavened bread of true thoughts and right feelings.

9 In my letter I said to you that you were not to keep company with those who go after the desires of the flesh;

10 But I had not in mind the sinners who are outside the church, or those who have a desire for and take the property of others, or those who give worship to images; for it is not possible to keep away from such people without going out of the world completely:

11 But the sense of my letter was that if a brother had the name of being one who went after the desires of the flesh, or had the desire for other people's property, or was in the way of using violent language, or being the worse for drink, or took by force what was not his, you might not keep company with such a one, or take food with him.

12 For it is no business of mine to be judging those who are outside; but it is yours to be judging those who are among you;

13 As for those who are outside, God is their judge. So put away the evil man from among you.
