^4 (A)in the name of our Lord Jesus, when you are assembled, and ^[a]I with you in spirit, ^(B)with the power of our Lord Jesus, ^5 (C)deliver such a one to ^(D)Satan for the destruction of his flesh, so that his spirit may be saved in ^(E)the day of ^[b]the Lord.

^6 (F)Your boasting is not good. ^(G)Do you not know that ^(H)a little leaven leavens the whole lump? ⁷ Clean out the old leaven so that you may be a new lump, just as you are in fact unleavened. For Christ, our ^(I)Passover lamb, also was sacrificed. ⁸ Therefore let us celebrate the feast, ^(J)not with old leaven, nor with the leaven of malice and wickedness, but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.

⁹ I wrote you in my letter ^(K)not to associate with sexually immoral people; ¹⁰ I did not at all mean with the sexually immoral people of this world, or with the greedy and swindlers, or with ^(L)idolaters, for then you would have to go out of the world. ¹¹ But now I am writing to you not to associate ^[c]with any so-called ^(M)brother if he is a sexually immoral person, or greedy, or ^(N)an idolater, or a reviler, or a drunkard, or a swindler—not even to eat with such a one. ¹² For what have I to do with judging ^(O)outsiders? ^(P)Are you not to judge those who are within the church? ¹³ But those who are outside, God will judge. ^(Q)Remove the wicked man from among yourselves.

¹¹ For behold what earnestness this very thing—this ^[a]godly sorrow—has brought about in you: what vindication of yourselves, what indignation, what fear, what ^(A)longing, what zeal, what ^(B)avenging of wrong! In everything you ^(C)demonstrated yourselves to be innocent in the matter.
