1 Corinthians 5

1In al maner fornycacioun is herd among you, and siche fornycacioun, which is not among hethene men, so that summan haue the wijf of his fadir. 2And ye ben bolnyd with pride, and not more hadden weilyng, that he that dide this werk, be takun awei fro the myddil of you. 3And Y absent in bodi, but present in spirit, now haue demyd as present hym that hath thus wrouyt, whanne 4ye ben gaderid togidere in the name of oure Lord Jhesu Crist, and my spirit, with the vertu of the Lord Jhesu, 5to take siche a man to Sathanas, in to the perischyng of fleisch, that the spirit be saaf in the dai of oure Lord Jhesu Crist. 6Youre gloriyng is not good. Witen ye not, that a litil sourdow apeyrith al the gobet? 7Clense ye out the old sourdow, that ye be new sprengyng togidere, as ye ben therf. For Crist offrid is oure pask. 8Therfor ete we, not in eld sourdowy, nether in sourdowy of malice and weywardnesse, but in therf thingis of clernesse and of treuthe. 9I wroot to you in a pistle, that ye be not medlid with letchours, 10not with letchours of this world, ne coueitous men, ne raueynours, ne with men seruynge to mawmetis, ellis ye schulden haue go out of this world. 11But now Y wroot to you, that ye be not meynd. But if he that is named a brother among you, and is a letchour, or coueitouse, or seruynge to ydols, or cursere, or ful of drunkenesse, or raueynour, to take no mete with siche. 12For what is it to me to deme of hem that ben with oute forth? Whether ye demen not of thingis that ben with ynne forth? 13For God schal deme hem that ben withouten forth. Do ye awei yuel fro you silf.
