Great⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ There goeth a commen sayinge that ther is fornicacion amonge you, and soch fornicacyon, as is not named amonge the gentyls: that one shuld haue hys fathers wyfe. ² And ye swell, and haue not rather sorowed, that he which hath done thys dede, myght be put from amonge you. ³ For I verely as absent in body, but present in sprete, haue determined allready (as though I were present) concernynge hym that hath done this dede, ⁴ in the name of oure Lord Iesu Christ, when ye are gathered together, and my sprete wt you, with the power of the Lorde Iesus Chryst ⁵ to delyuer hym vnto Satan, for the destruccyon of the flesshe, that the sprete maye be saued in the daye of the Lorde Iesus. ⁶ Youre reioysynge is not good: knowe ye not, that a lytle leuen sowreth the whole lompe of dowe? ⁷ Pourge therfore the olde leuen that ye maye be newe dowe, as ye are swete breed. For Christ oure passeouer is offered vp for vs. ⁸ Therfore, let vs kepe holy daye, not with olde leuen, nether with the leuen of malicyousnes & wickednes: but with the swete breed of purenes and trueth. ⁹ I wrote vnto you in a pistle, that ye shuld not company wyth fornicatours. ¹⁰ And I meant not at all of the fornicatours of this world, ether of the coueteous, or extorsyoners, ether the ydolaters: for then must ye nedes haue gone out of the world. ¹¹ But now I dyd write vnto you, that ye company not together, yf eny that is called a brother, be a fornicator, or coueteous, or a worshypper of ymages, ether a raylar, ether a dronckard, or an extorcionar: wyth hym that is soche, se that ye eate not. ¹² For what haue I to do, to iudge them which are without. Do ye not iudge them that are within? ¹³ Them that are without, God iudgeth. Put awaye the euell from amonge you.
