5:1It is absolutely heard, that there is fornication among you, and such fornication as the like is not among the heathens; that one should have his father's wife.

2And you are puffed up; and have not rather mourned, that he might be taken away from among you, that has done this deed.

3I indeed, absent in body, but present in spirit, have already judged, as though I were present, him that has so done,

4In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, you being gathered together, and my spirit, with the power of our Lord Jesus;

5To deliver such a one to Satan for the destruction of the flesh, that the spirit may be saved in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ.

6Your glorying is not good. Know you not that a little leaven corrupteth the whole lump$1

7Purge out the old leaven, that you may be a new paste, as you are unleavened. For Christ our pasch is sacrificed.

8Therefore let us feast, not with the old leaven, nor with the leaven of malice and evil; but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.

5:5In the morning I will stand before you, and will see: because you are not a God that willest sin.

6Neither shall the evil dwell near you: nor shall the unjust abide before your eyes.

7You hatest all the workers of sin: You will destroy all that speak a lie. The bloody and the deceitful man the Lord will abhor.

12But let all them be glad that hope in you: they shall rejoice forever, and you shall dwell in them. And all those who love your name shall glory in you:

6:6And it happened also on another sabbath, that he entered into the synagogue, and taught. And there was a man, whose right hand was withered.

7And the teachers of the law and Pharisees watched if he would heal on the sabbath; that they might find an accusation against him.

8But he knew their thoughts; and said to the man who had the withered hand: Arise, and stand forth in the midst. And rising he stood forth.

9Then Jesus said to them: I ask you, if it be lawful on the sabbath days to do good, or to do evil; to save life, or to destroy?

10And looking round about on them all, he said to the man: Stretch forth your hand. And he stretched it forth: and his hand was restored.

11And they were satisfied with madness; and they talked one with another, what they might do to Jesus.
