1 Corinthiens 5
Nouvelle Edition de Genève – NEG1979
Censure des désordres dans l’Eglise de Corinthe
5 On entend dire généralement qu’il y a parmi vous de la débauche, et une débauche telle qu’elle ne se rencontre même pas chez les païens; c’est au point que l’un de vous a la femme de son père. 2 Et vous êtes enflés d’orgueil! Et vous n’avez pas été plutôt dans l’affliction, afin que celui qui a commis cet acte soit ôté du milieu de vous! 3 Pour moi, absent de corps, mais présent d’esprit, j’ai déjà jugé, comme si j’étais présent, celui qui a commis un tel acte. 4 Au nom du Seigneur Jésus, vous et mon esprit étant assemblés avec la puissance de notre Seigneur Jésus, 5 qu’un tel homme soit livré à Satan pour la destruction de la chair, afin que l’esprit soit sauvé au jour du Seigneur Jésus.
6 C’est bien à tort que vous vous glorifiez. Ne savez-vous pas qu’un peu de levain fait lever toute la pâte? 7 Faites disparaître le vieux levain, afin que vous soyez une pâte nouvelle, puisque vous êtes sans levain, car Christ, notre Pâque, a été immolé. 8 Célébrons donc la fête, non avec du vieux levain, non avec un levain de malice et de méchanceté, mais avec les pains sans levain de la pureté et de la vérité.
9 Je vous ai écrit dans ma lettre[a] de ne pas avoir de relations avec les débauchés, 10 non pas d’une manière absolue avec les débauchés de ce monde, ou avec les cupides et les ravisseurs, ou avec les idolâtres; autrement, il vous faudrait sortir du monde. 11 Maintenant, ce que je vous ai écrit, c’est de ne pas avoir des relations avec quelqu’un qui, se nommant frère, est débauché, ou cupide, ou idolâtre, ou outrageux, ou ivrogne, ou ravisseur, de ne pas même manger avec un tel homme. 12 Qu’ai-je, en effet, à juger ceux du dehors? N’est-ce pas ceux du dedans que vous avez à juger? 13 Pour ceux du dehors, Dieu les juge. Otez le méchant du milieu de vous[b].

1 Corinthians 5
Worldwide English (New Testament)
5 I have heard a very bad report about you. I hear there are wrong sexual ways among you. Even the people who are not Jews do not allow wrong sex such as this among them. A man is living with his father's wife!
2 Can it be that you are still proud? This should make you very sad. The man who has done this should be put out of the church meeting.
3 My body is not with you, but my spirit is. Just as if I were right there, I have decided what to do about the man who did such a thing as this.
4 Do this in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. When you meet together my spirit will be with you. Then, with the power of our Lord Jesus Christ, give this man over to Satan. Let Satan punish his body. By this the man's spirit may yet be saved when the Lord Jesus comes.
5 Surely it is not right for you to be proud. Do you not know that only a little yeast in the bread will make all the bread rise?
6 Clean out the old yeast so that you will become like new bread. You are free from the old things. Christ, the Passover Lamb, has been killed for us.
7 Let us then remember the feast of Passover and have our bread. But let us not have our feast with old yeast in the bread. To do bad and wrong things is like that old yeast. But let us have it with new bread that has no old yeast in it. To be honest and true is like the new bread.
8 I wrote a letter to you. I told you not to be friends with people who use sex the wrong way [with a person they are not married to].
9 I did not mean the people of the world [people who are not Christians] - some of them use sex the wrong way; or always want more things; or steal; or worship idols. To keep away from them altogether would mean you would have to go out of the world.
10 But I wrote to you not to be friends with anyone who says he is a Christian and uses wrong sex, or always wants more, or has idols, or curses, or drinks too much strong drink, or steals. I told you not even to sit down to eat with such a person.
11 Why should I judge the people who are outside the church? You are to judge the church people.
12 God judges those who are outside. The holy writings say, `Send the bad person away from among you.'
1 Corinthians 5
Holman Christian Standard Bible
Immoral Church Members
5 It is widely reported that there is sexual immorality(A) among you, and the kind of sexual immorality that is not even tolerated[a] among the Gentiles(B)—a man is living with his father’s wife.(C) 2 And you are inflated with pride, instead of filled with grief(D) so that he who has committed this act might be removed from your congregation. 3 For though I am absent in body but present in spirit,(E) I have already decided about the one who has done this thing as though I were present. 4 When you are assembled in the name of our Lord Jesus with my spirit and with the power of our Lord Jesus, 5 turn that one over to Satan for the destruction of the flesh,(F) so that his spirit may be saved in the Day of the Lord.(G)
6 Your boasting is not good. Don’t you know that a little yeast(H) permeates the whole batch of dough?(I) 7 Clean out the old yeast so that you may be a new batch. You are indeed unleavened, for Christ our Passover(J) has been sacrificed.[b] 8 Therefore, let us observe the feast, not with old yeast or with the yeast of malice and evil(K) but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.
Church Discipline
9 I wrote to you in a letter not to associate(L) with sexually immoral people.(M) 10 I did not mean the immoral people of this world or the greedy(N) and swindlers(O) or idolaters; otherwise you would have to leave the world.(P) 11 But now I am writing[c] you not to associate with anyone who claims to be a believer[d](Q) who is sexually immoral or greedy, an idolater or verbally abusive, a drunkard(R) or a swindler. Do not even eat with such a person. 12 For what business is it of mine to judge(S) outsiders? Don’t you judge those who are inside? 13 But God judges outsiders. Put away the evil person from among yourselves.(T)[e]
