Lamsa⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ IT is reported that immorality is com mon among you, and such immorality as is not known among pagans, that even a son should marry his fatherÆs wife. * ² But instead of boasting as you have, rather had you sat down mourning that he who has done this deed has not been removed from among you. ³ For while I am far away from you in body, yet I am near you in spirit, and I have already judged, as though I were present, him who has done this deed. ⁴ In the name of our LORD Jesus Christ, gather together, and I will be with you in spirit and with the power of our LORD Jesus Christ; ⁵ So that you shall deliver this man to Satan for the destruction of his body, in order that the spirit may be saved in the day of our LORD Jesus Christ. ⁶ Your boasting is not good. Do you not know that a little leaven will leaven the whole lump?
