1 Corinthians 5:8-13 Lexham English Bible (LEB)

8. So then, let us celebrate the feast, not with the old leaven or with the leaven of wickedness and sinfulness, but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.

9. I wrote to you in the letter not to associate with sexually immoral people.

10. By no means did I mean the sexually immoral people of this world or the greedy people and swindlers or idolaters, since then you would have to depart out of the world.

11. But now I have written to you not to associate with any so-called brother, if he is a sexually immoral person or a greedy person or an idolater or an abusive person or a drunkard or a swindler—with such a person not even to eat.

12. For what is it to me to judge those outside? Should you not judge those inside?

13. But those outside God will judge. Remove the evil person from among yourselves.
