Un caso de inmoralidad

5 Se ha sabido que uno de ustedes tiene como mujer a su propia madrastra. Este caso de inmoralidad es tan grave, que ni siquiera se da entre los paganos. 2 ¡Y aún se hinchan ustedes de orgullo! ¡Deberían llenarse de tristeza! El hombre que vive en semejante situación debe ser expulsado de entre ustedes. 3 En cuanto a mí, aunque en el cuerpo no estoy presente entre ustedes, lo estoy en el espíritu; y, como si estuviera presente, he dado ya mi sentencia sobre aquel que así actúa. 4 Cuando ustedes se reúnan, yo estaré con ustedes en espíritu, y también el poder de nuestro Señor Jesús estará con ustedes. Entonces, en el nombre de nuestro Señor Jesús, 5 ese hombre deberá ser entregado a Satanás, para que su cuerpo sea destruido y su espíritu se salve cuando el Señor venga.

6 Ustedes no tienen razón para sentirse orgullosos. Ya conocen el dicho: «Un poco de levadura hace fermentar toda la masa.» 7 Así que echen fuera esa vieja levadura que los corrompe, para que sean como el pan hecho de masa nueva. Ustedes son, en realidad, como el pan sin levadura que se come en los días de la Pascua. Porque Cristo, que es el Cordero de nuestra Pascua, fue muerto en sacrificio por nosotros. 8 Así que debemos celebrar nuestra Pascua con el pan sin levadura que es la sinceridad y la verdad, y no con la vieja levadura ni con la corrupción de la maldad y la perversidad.

9 En mi otra carta les dije que no deben tener trato alguno con quienes se entregan a la prostitución. 10 Y con esto no quise decirles que se aparten por completo de todos los que en este mundo se entregan a la prostitución, o son avaros, o ladrones, o idólatras, pues para lograrlo tendrían ustedes que salirse del mundo. 11 Lo que quise decir es que no deben tener trato con ninguno que, llamándose hermano, se entregue a la prostitución, o sea avaro, o idólatra, o maldiciente, o borracho, o ladrón. Con gente así, ni siquiera comer juntos. 12-13 No me toca a mí juzgar a los de fuera; Dios será quien los juzgue. Pero ustedes ya están juzgando a los de dentro. Por eso, quiten a ese pecador de en medio de ustedes.

1 Korinthierbrevet 5
Swedish New Living Bible (Nya Levande Bibeln)

Omoral

5 Så måste jag ta upp en annan sak. Det påstås att det hos er förekommer synd av sådant slag som man aldrig annars hör talas om. Ni har en man i er församling som har ett sexuellt förhållande med sin fars hustru.

2 Och ni är ändå så präktiga, så andliga! Varför sörjer ni inte och skäms, och ser till att ni utesluter denne man ur er gemenskap?

3-4 Även om jag inte är hos er, så har jag tänkt mycket på detta, och i Herrens, Jesu Kristi, namn har jag redan beslutat vad som ska göras. Kalla samman församlingen! Herrens Jesu kraft kommer att vara med er när ni träffas, och jag ska vara med er i anden.

5 Ni ska be den här mannen lämna församlingsgemenskapen och överlämna honom i Satans händer, för att han ska bli straffad, i hopp om att hans själ ska räddas, när vår Herre Jesus Kristus återvänder.

6 Det är fruktansvärt att ni skryter med er renhet och ändå låter sådana här saker fortsätta. Förstår ni inte att om bara en enda människa tillåts att leva i synd, så kommer snart alla att angripas?

7 Avlägsna denne onde mans inflytande, så att ni kan förbli rena. Kristus, Guds Lamm, har slaktats för oss.

8 Låt oss därför fira högtid och växa oss starka i honom, och helt och hållet lämna bakom oss det gamla livet med dess hat och ondska. Ja, låt oss fira högtid med hederns och uppriktighetens och sanningens rena bröd.

9 När jag tidigare skrev till er, uppmanade jag er att inte umgås med ogudaktiga människor.

10 Men när jag sa detta menade jag inte dem som inte är kristna. Det är ju inget anmärkningsvärt att de lever i sexuella synder, eller är bedragare, tjuvar och avgudadyrkare. Ni kan inte leva här på jorden utan att komma i kontakt med sådana människor.

11 Vad jag menade var att ni inte ska ha gemenskap med någon som påstår sig vara kristen, och ändå gör allt detta som jag nämnde eller annat som är oacceptabelt för en kristen. Ät inte ens tillsammans med en sådan.

12 Det är inte vår uppgift att döma dem som står utanför. Men det är verkligen vår uppgift att döma och kraftfullt ta itu med dem som är församlingsmedlemmar och som syndar på detta sätt.

13 Endast Gud är domare över dem som står utanför. Men ni själva måste ta itu med denne man och utestänga honom från er gemenskap.

1 Corinthians 5
New English Translation

Church Discipline

5 It is actually reported that sexual immorality exists among you, the kind of immorality that is not permitted even among the Gentiles, so that someone is cohabiting with[a] his father’s wife. 2 And you are proud![b] Shouldn’t you have been deeply sorrowful instead and removed the one who did this[c] from among you? 3 For even though I am absent physically,[d] I am present in spirit. And I have already judged the one who did this, just as though I were present.[e] 4 When you gather together in the name of our Lord Jesus,[f] and I am with you in spirit,[g] along with the power of our Lord Jesus, 5 hand this man over to Satan for the destruction of the flesh, so that his spirit may be saved[h] in the day of the Lord.[i]

6 Your boasting is not good. Don’t you know that a little yeast[j] affects[k] the whole batch of dough? 7 Clean out the old yeast so that you may be a new batch of dough—you are, in fact, without yeast. For Christ, our Passover lamb, has been sacrificed. 8 So then, let us celebrate the festival, not with the old yeast, the yeast of vice and evil, but with the bread without yeast, the bread of sincerity and truth.[l]

9 I wrote you in my letter not to associate with sexually immoral people. 10 In no way did I mean the immoral people of this world, or the greedy and swindlers and idolaters, since you would then have to go out of the world. 11 But now I am writing to you not to associate with anyone who calls himself a Christian[m] who is sexually immoral, or greedy, or an idolater, or verbally abusive,[n] or a drunkard, or a swindler. Do not even eat with such a person. 12 For what do I have to do with judging those outside? Are you not to judge those inside? 13 But God will judge those outside. Remove the evil person from among you.[o]

Footnotes

  1. 1 Corinthians 5:1 tn Or “someone has married”; Grk “someone has,” but the verb ἔχω (echō) is routinely used of marital relationships (cf. BDAG 420 s.v. 2.a), including sexual relationships. The exact nature of the relationship is uncertain in this case; it is not clear, for example, whether the man had actually married the woman or was merely cohabiting with her.
  2. 1 Corinthians 5:2 tn Or “are puffed up/arrogant,” the same verb occurring in 4:6, 18.
  3. 1 Corinthians 5:2 tn Grk “sorrowful, so that the one who did this might be removed.”
  4. 1 Corinthians 5:3 tn Grk “in body.”
  5. 1 Corinthians 5:3 tn Verse 3 is one sentence in Greek (“For—even though I am absent in body, yet present in spirit—I have already judged the one who did this, as though I were present”) that has been broken up due to English stylistic considerations.
  6. 1 Corinthians 5:4 tc On the wording “our Lord Jesus” (τοῦ κυρίου ἡμῶν ᾿Ιησοῦ, tou kuriou hēmōn Iēsou) there is some variation in the extant witnesses: ἡμῶν is lacking in א A Ψ 1505; Χριστοῦ (Christou, “Christ”) is found after ᾿Ιησοῦ in P46 א D2 F G 33 1881 M co and before ᾿Ιησοῦ in 81. The wording τοῦ κυρίου ἡμῶν ᾿Ιησοῦ is read by B D* 1175 1739. Concerning Χριστοῦ, even though the external evidence for this is quite good, it may well be a motivated reading. Elsewhere in Paul the expression “our Lord Jesus” is routinely followed by “Christ” (e.g., Rom 5:1, 11; 15:6, 30; 1 Cor 1:2, 7, 10; 15:57; 2 Cor 8:9; Gal 6:14, 18, Eph 1:3, 17; 5:20; 6:24; Col 1:3; 1 Thess 1:3; 5:9, 23, 28). Less commonly, the wording is simply “our Lord Jesus” (e.g., Rom 16:20; 2 Cor 1:14; 1 Thess 2:19; 3:11, 13; 2 Thess 1:8, 12). A preference should thus be given to the shorter reading. As for the ἡμῶν, it is very difficult to decide: “the Lord Jesus” occurs as often as “our Lord Jesus” (cf. 1 Cor 11:23; 16:23; 2 Cor 4:14; 11:31; Eph 1:15; 1 Thess 4:2; 2 Thess 1:7; Phlm 5). Although scribes would tend to expand on the text, the only witnesses that have “the Lord Jesus” (without “our” or “Christ”) are A Ψ 1505. On balance, then, “our Lord Jesus” is the best reading in this verse.
  7. 1 Corinthians 5:4 tn Verses 4b-5a are capable of various punctuations: (1) “and I am with you in spirit, through the power of our Lord Jesus turn this man over to Satan”; (2) “and I am with you in spirit with the power of our Lord Jesus, turn this man over to Satan”; (3) “and I am with you in spirit, along with the power of our Lord Jesus, turn this man over to Satan” (as adopted in the text). The first option suggests the Lord’s power is needed when the church is to hand the man over to Satan; the second option suggests that the Lord’s power is present when Paul is gathered with the Corinthians in spirit; the third option leaves the relation of the Lord’s power to the surrounding phrases vague, perhaps implying that both are in view.
  8. 1 Corinthians 5:5 tn Or perhaps “turn this man over to Satan for the destruction of your fleshly works, so that your spirit may be saved…”; Grk “for the destruction of the flesh, so that the spirit may be saved.” This is one of the most difficult passages in the NT, and there are many different interpretations regarding what is in view here. (1) Many interpreters see this as some sort of excommunication (“turn this man over to Satan”) which in turn leads to the man’s physical death (“the destruction of the flesh”), resulting in the man’s ultimate salvation (“that [his] spirit may be saved…”). (2) Others see the phrase “destruction of the flesh” as referring to extreme physical suffering or illness that stops short of physical death, thus leading the offender to repentance and salvation. (3) A number of scholars (e.g. G. D. Fee, First Corinthians [NICNT], 212-13) take the reference to the “flesh” to refer to the offender’s “sinful nature” or “carnal nature,” which is “destroyed” by placing him outside the church, back in Satan’s domain (exactly how this “destruction” is accomplished is not clear, and is one of the problems with this view). (4) More recently some have argued that neither the “flesh” nor the “spirit” belong to the offender, but to the church collectively; thus it is the “fleshly works” of the congregation which are being destroyed by the removal of the offender (cf. 5:13) so that the “spirit,” the corporate life of the church lived in union with God through the Holy Spirit, may be preserved (cf. 5:7-8). See, e.g., B. Campbell, “Flesh and Spirit in 1 Cor 5:5: An Exercise in Rhetorical Criticism of the NT,” JETS 36 (1993): 331-42. The alternate translation “for the destruction of your fleshly works, so that your spirit may be saved” reflects this latter view.
  9. 1 Corinthians 5:5 tc The shorter reading, κυρίου (kuriou, “Lord”), is found in P46 B 630 1739; κυρίου ᾿Ιησοῦ (kuriou Iēsou, “Lord Jesus”) is read by P61vid א Ψ M; κυρίου ᾿Ιησοῦ Χριστοῦ (kuriou Iēsou Christou, “Lord Jesus Christ”) by D; and κυρίου ἡμῶν ᾿Ιησοῦ Χριστοῦ (kuriou hēmōn Iēsou Christou, “our Lord Jesus Christ”) by A F G P 33 al. The shorter reading is preferred as the reading that best explains the other readings, especially in view of the mention of “Jesus” twice in the previous verse.
  10. 1 Corinthians 5:6 sn In this passage (5:6-8) yeast represents the presence of evil within the church, specifically the immoral person described in 5:1-5 and mentioned again in 5:13.
  11. 1 Corinthians 5:6 tn Grk “a little yeast leavens.”
  12. 1 Corinthians 5:8 tn Grk “with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.”
  13. 1 Corinthians 5:11 tn Grk “a brother,” but the Greek word “brother” may be used for “brother or sister,” “fellow Christian,” or “fellow member of the church.” Here the term “brother” broadly connotes familial relationships within the family of God (cf. BDAG 18 s.v. ἀδελφός 2.a).
  14. 1 Corinthians 5:11 tn Or “a reviler”; BDAG 602 s.v. λοίδορος defines the term as “reviler, abusive person.”
  15. 1 Corinthians 5:13 sn An allusion to Deut 17:7; 19:19; 22:21, 24; 24:7; cf. 1 Cor 5:2.
