1 Geralmente, se ouve que há entre vós imoralidade e imoralidade tal, como nem mesmo entre os gentios, isto é, haver quem se atreva a possuir a mulher de seu próprio pai. 2 E, contudo, andais vós ensoberbecidos e não chegastes a lamentar, para que fosse tirado do vosso meio quem tamanho ultraje praticou? 3 Eu, na verdade, ainda que ausente em pessoa, mas presente em espírito, já sentenciei, como se estivesse presente, que o autor de tal infâmia seja, 4 em nome do Senhor Jesus, reunidos vós e o meu espírito, com o poder de Jesus, nosso Senhor, 5 entregue a Satanás para a destruição da carne, a fim de que o espírito seja salvo no Dia do Senhor [Jesus]. 6 Não é boa a vossa jactância. Não sabeis que um pouco de fermento leveda a massa toda? 7 Lançai fora o velho fermento, para que sejais nova massa, como sois, de fato, sem fermento. Pois também Cristo, nosso Cordeiro pascal, foi imolado. 8 Por isso, celebremos a festa não com o velho fermento, nem com o fermento da maldade e da malícia, e sim com os asmos da sinceridade e da verdade.

9 Já em carta vos escrevi que não vos associásseis com os impuros; 10 refiro-me, com isto, não propriamente aos impuros deste mundo, ou aos avarentos, ou roubadores, ou idólatras; pois, neste caso, teríeis de sair do mundo. 11 Mas, agora, vos escrevo que não vos associeis com alguém que, dizendo-se irmão, for impuro, ou avarento, ou idólatra, ou maldizente, ou beberrão, ou roubador; com esse tal, nem ainda comais. 12 Pois com que direito haveria eu de julgar os de fora? Não julgais vós os de dentro? 13 Os de fora, porém, Deus os julgará. Expulsai, pois, de entre vós o malfeitor.

1 It is actually reported that there is fornication among you, and such fornication as is not even among the Gentiles, that one of you hath his father’s wife. 2 And ye are puffed up, and did not rather mourn, that he that had done this deed might be taken away from among you. 3 For I verily, being absent in body but present in spirit, have already as though I were present judged him that hath so wrought this thing, 4 in the name of our Lord Jesus, ye being gathered together, and my spirit, with the power of our Lord Jesus, 5 to deliver such a one unto Satan for the destruction of the flesh, that the spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus. 6 Your glorying is not good. Know ye not that a little leaven leaveneth the whole lump? 7 Purge out the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump, even as ye are unleavened. For our passover also hath been sacrificed, even Christ: 8 wherefore let us keep the feast, not with old leaven, neither with the leaven of malice and wickedness, but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.

9 I wrote unto you in my epistle to have no company with fornicators; 10 not at all meaning with the fornicators of this world, or with the covetous and extortioners, or with idolaters; for then must ye needs go out of the world: 11 but as it is, I wrote unto you not to keep company, if any man that is named a brother be a fornicator, or covetous, or an idolater, or a reviler, or a drunkard, or an extortioner; with such a one no, not to eat. 12 For what have I to do with judging them that are without? Do not ye judge them that are within? 13 But them that are without God judgeth. Put away the wicked man from among yourselves.

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 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 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 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 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 boasting is not good. Don't you know that a little yeast works through the whole batch of dough?

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 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 have written you in my letter not to associate with sexually immoral people--

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 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 What business is it of mine to judge those outside the church? Are you not to judge those inside?

13 God will judge those outside. "Expel the wicked man from among you."
