1 Kua paku noa atu te rongo he puremu kei roto i a koutou, he tu puremu kahore nei i roto i nga tauiwi, ara kua riro i tetahi o koutou te wahine a tona papa.

2 A e whakapehapeha ana koutou, te pouri koutou, te mea kia tangohia atu i roto i a koutou te tangata nana tenei mahi.

3 Na ko ahau, ahakoa tawhiti i te tinana kei kona te wairua, kua whakahe noa ake i te tangata nana tenei mahi, i runga i te ingoa o to tatou Ariki, o Ihu, me te mea kei kona ano ahau;

4 E noho huihui ana koutou me toku wairua, i runga i te kaha o to tatou Ariki, o Ihu.

5 Ka tuku atu ai i tena tu tangata ki a Hatana, hei whakangaro mo te kikokiko, kia ora ai te wairua i te ra o te Ariki, o Ihu,

6 Kahore e pai ta koutou whakapehapeha. Kahore koutou e matau he iti nei te rewena, rewenatia ake te puranga katoa?

7 Kokoa ki waho te rewena tawhito, kia ai koutou he puranga hou, me koutou e rewenakore na. Kua patua hoki mo tatou a te Karaiti, to tatou kapenga:

8 Na kia kai tatou i te hakari, auaka te rewena tawhito, auaka hoki te rewena o te mauahara, o te kino, engari hei te taro rewenakore o te tinihangakore, o te pono.

9 I tuhituhi atu ahau ki a koutou i roto i te pukapuka, kia kaua e whakahoa ki nga tangata puremu:

10 Ehara ia i te mea rawa mo te hunga puremu o tenei ao, mo te hunga apo, hao taonga, karakia whakapakoko; penei me haere atu koutou ki waho o te ao:

11 Engari inaianei ka tuhituhi atu ahau ki a koutou, kia kaua e whakahoa, ki te mea tetahi e kiia nei he teina he tangata moepuku, he apo ranei, e karakia ana ranei ki te whakapakoko, he tangata taunu ranei, he haurangi, he hao taonga ranei; kaua r awa koutou ko taua tu tangata e kai tahi.

12 Hei aha ra maku te whakawa i te hunga o waho? e kore koia koutou e whakawa i te hunga o roto,

13 A ko te hunga o waho ma te Atua ratou e whakawa? Na motuhia atu taua tangata kino i roto i a koutou.

1 Whoredom is actually heard of among you, and such whoredom as is not even named among the nations -- as that one hath the wife of the father! --

2 and ye are having been puffed up, and did not rather mourn, that he may be removed out of the midst of you who did this work,

3 for I indeed, as being absent as to the body, and present as to the spirit, have already judged, as being present, him who so wrought this thing:

4 in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ -- ye being gathered together, also my spirit -- with the power of our Lord Jesus Christ,

5 to deliver up such a one to the Adversary for the destruction of the flesh, that the spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus.

6 Not good [is] your glorying; have ye not known that a little leaven the whole lump doth leaven?

7 cleanse out, therefore, the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump, according as ye are unleavened, for also our passover for us was sacrificed -- Christ,

8 so that we may keep the feast, not with old leaven, nor with the leaven of evil and wickedness, but with unleavened food of sincerity and truth.

9 I did write to you in the epistle, not to keep company with whoremongers --

10 and not certainly with the whoremongers of this world, or with the covetous, or extortioners, or idolaters, seeing ye ought then to go forth out of the world --

11 and now, I did write to you not to keep company with [him], if any one, being named a brother, may be a whoremonger, or covetous, or an idolater, or a railer, or a drunkard, or an extortioner -- with such a one not even to eat together;

12 for what have I also those without to judge? those within do ye not judge?

13 and those without God doth judge; and put ye away the evil from among yourselves.
