1 Corinthians 5:7-13

Murdock(i) 7 Purge out from you the old leaven, that ye may be a new mass, as ye are unleavened. For our passover is the Messiah, who was slain for us. 8 Therefore let us celebrate the festival, not with the old leaven, nor with the leaven of wickedness and bitterness, but with the leaven of purity and sanctity. 9 I wrote to you by letter, not to commingle with whoremongers. 10 But I say not, with the whoremongers who are in the world, nor speak I of the avaricious, or of the rapacious, or of the idol-worshippers, otherwise ye would be obliged to go out of the world. 11 But this is what I wrote to you, that ye commingle not, if any one is called a brother, and is a whoremonger, or avaricious, or an idol-worshipper, or a railer, or a drunkard, or rapacious, with him who is such, not even to eat bread. 12 For what business have I to judge them who are without? But those within the body, judge ye, 13 and those without, God judgeth; and remove ye the wickedness from among you.
