5 I have decided [a]to (A)turn such a person over to (B)Satan for the destruction of his [b]body, so that his spirit may be saved on (C)the day of the [c]Lord.
6 (D)Your boasting is not good. (E)Do you not know that (F)a little [d]leaven leavens the whole lump of dough? 7 Clean out the old leaven so that you may be a new lump, just as you are in fact unleavened. For Christ our (G)Passover also has been sacrificed.
