1 Consta geralmente que há fornicação entre vós, e tal fornicação qual nem ainda entre os gentios, de modo que há quem vive com a mulher de seu pai.

2 Estais vós inchados, e não pranteastes, para que fosse tirado do meio de vós aquele que tal ação praticou?

3 Pois eu, na verdade, ausente em corpo, mas presente em espírito, já tenho, como se estivesse presente, julgado aquele que assim se portou:

4 em nome do Senhor Jesus, congregados vós e o meu espírito, com o poder de nosso Senhor Jesus,

5 seja o tal entregue a Satanás, para a destruição da carne, a fim de que o espírito seja salvo no dia do Senhor.

6 Não é boa a vossa jactância. Não sabeis que um pouco de fermento leveda a massa toda?

7 Purificai o velho fermento, para que sejais uma nova massa, assim como sois sem fermento. Pois, na verdade, Cristo, que é nossa páscoa, foi imolado.

8 Por isso celebremos a festa, não com o velho fermento, nem com o fermento da maldade e da malícia, mas com os asmos da sinceridade e da verdade.

9 Na minha carta vos escrevi que não vos comunicásseis com os fornicários,

10 não significando de modo algum os fornicários deste mundo, ou os avarentos e roubadores, ou os idólatras, pois neste caso haveríeis de sair do mundo.

11 Mas sendo assim, vos escrevi que não comuniqueis com alguém que se chama vosso irmão se for ele fornicário, ou avarento, ou idólatra, ou maldizente, ou bêbedo, ou roubador; com esse tal nem sequer comais.

12 Pois que me vai a mim em julgar os que estão de fora? Não julgais vós os que estão de dentro?

13 Os de fora, porém, Deus os julgará. Tirai esse iníquo do meio de vós.

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.
