The fyrst Epistle to the Corinthyans. The .v. Chapter.
- There goeth a comen sayinge that ther is fornicacion amoge you and soche fornicacion as is not once named amonge the gentyls: that one shuld have his fathers wyfe.
- And ye swell and have not rather sorowed yt he which hath done this dede myght be put fro amoge you.
- For I verely as absent in body even so present in sprete have determyned all redy (as though I were present) of him that hath done this dede
- in the name of oure Lorde Jesu Christ when ye are gaddered togedder and my sprete with the power of the Lorde Jesus Christ
- to deliver him vnto Satan for ye destruccio of the flesshe yt the sprete maye be saved in ye daye of ye Lorde Jesus.
- Youre reioysinge is not good: knowe ye not that a lytle leve sowreth the whole lompe of dowe.
- Pourge therfore the olde leven that ye maye be newe dowe as ye are swete breed. For Christ oure esterlambe is offered vp for vs.
- Therfore let vs kepe holy daye not with olde leve nether with the leven of maliciousnes and wickednes: but with the swete breed of purenes and truth.
- I wrote vnto you in a pistle that ye shuld not company with fornicatours.
- And I meat not at all of the fornicatours of this worlde ether of the coveteous or of extorsioners ether of the ydolaters: for then must ye nedes have gone out of ye worlde.
- But now I write vnto you that ye company not togedder yf eny that is called a brother be a fornicator or coveteous or a worshipper of ymages ether a raylar ether a dronkard or an extorcionar: with him that is soche se that ye eate not.
- For what have I to do to iudge them which are with out? Do ye not iudge them that are with in?
- Them that are with out God shall iudge. Put awaye from amonge you that evyll parson.
