1 Korinterne 5

Vejledning om umoralitet i menigheden
5 Hvor utroligt det end lyder, så har jeg hørt, at der er seksuel synd iblandt jer, og det af en så alvorlig karakter, at man ikke engang finder mage til blandt de gudløse, nemlig at en mand i jeres menighed lever sammen med sin stedmor. 2 Og I slår det bare hen! I skulle hellere med skam og bedrøvelse udelukke den mand af jeres fællesskab. 3 Selvom jeg befinder mig langt borte, følger jeg i min ånd levende med i, hvad der sker hos jer, og jeg har afsagt dommen over den skyldige. 4 I bør samles i Herren Jesu navn—og jeg vil være med jer i tankerne—og ud fra den autoritet, som Jesus, vores Herre, har givet os, 5 skal I overgive denne mand til Satan, så han bliver angrebet på sin krop. Måske kan det få ham til at vende sig fra sin synd, og dermed kan hans ånd blive reddet på dommens dag.
6 Her har I ikke noget at være stolte af. Ved I ikke, at en smule surdej kan gennemsyre hele dejen? 7 Fjern den gamle surdej, så I kan være ligesom en ny dej, der ikke indeholder nogen urenheder. Kristus blev jo ofret som vores påskelam.[a] 8 Så lad os fejre påske med usyrnet brød—med sandhed og renhed—og ikke med gammel surdej—ondskab og moralsk forfald.
9 I mit tidligere brev skrev jeg, at I ikke måtte have noget at gøre med dem, der lever i seksuel synd. 10 Jeg mente naturligvis ikke de mennesker, der ikke er kristne, og som lever et liv kendetegnet af seksuel synd, griskhed, tyverier og afgudsdyrkelse, for så måtte I jo forlade denne verden. 11 Hvad jeg mente, var, at I ikke skal have fællesskab med nogen, der påstår, at de er kristne, men hvis liv er kendetegnet af seksuel synd, griskhed, afgudsdyrkelse, hån, druk eller tyverier. I skal tage afstand fra sådanne mennesker. 12 Er det måske vores opgave at dømme de mennesker, der ikke følger Kristus? Nej, men det er jeres opgave at dømme dem, som hører til i jeres menighed. 13 Dem, der er udenfor, må Gud dømme, men I skal fjerne det onde fra jeres midte![b]

- 5,7 Det hørte med til påskefesten, at al surdej blev fjernet, før påskelammet blev slagtet, og at lammet blev spist udelukkende med usyrnet brød til. Det var symbol på, at de gamle synder var tilgivet og fjernet, og at man nu kunne begynde på en frisk.

1 Corinthians 5
New King James Version
Immorality Defiles the Church
5 It is actually reported that there is sexual immorality among you, and such sexual immorality as is not even [a]named among the Gentiles—that a man has his father’s (A)wife! 2 (B)And you are [b]puffed up, and have not rather (C)mourned, that he who has done this deed might be taken away from among you. 3 (D)For I indeed, as absent in body but present in spirit, have already judged (as though I were present) him who has so done this deed. 4 In the (E)name of our Lord Jesus Christ, when you are gathered together, along with my spirit, (F)with the power of our Lord Jesus Christ, 5 (G)deliver such a one to (H)Satan for the destruction of the flesh, that his spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord [c]Jesus.
6 (I)Your glorying is not good. Do you not know that (J)a little leaven leavens the whole lump? 7 Therefore [d]purge out the old leaven, that you may be a new lump, since you truly are unleavened. For indeed (K)Christ, our (L)Passover, was sacrificed [e]for us. 8 Therefore (M)let us keep the feast, (N)not with old leaven, nor (O)with the leaven of malice and wickedness, but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.
Immorality Must Be Judged
9 I wrote to you in my epistle (P)not to [f]keep company with sexually immoral people. 10 Yet I certainly did not mean with the sexually immoral people of this world, or with the covetous, or extortioners, or idolaters, since then you would need to go (Q)out of the world. 11 But now I have written to you not to keep company (R)with anyone named a brother, who is sexually immoral, or covetous, or an idolater, or a reviler, or a drunkard, or an extortioner—(S)not even to eat with such a person.
12 For what have I to do with judging those also who are outside? Do you not judge those who are inside? 13 But those who are outside God judges. Therefore (T)“put away from yourselves the evil person.”

1 Corinthians 5
1599 Geneva Bible
5 1 That they have winked at him who committed incest with his mother-in-law, 2, 6 he showeth should cause them rather to be ashamed, than to rejoice: 10 Such kind of wickedness is to be punished with excommunication, 12 lest others be infected with it.
1 It [a]is heard certainly that there is fornication among you: and such fornication as is not once named among the Gentiles, that one should have his father’s wife.
2 [b]And ye are puffed up, and have not rather sorrowed, that he which hath done this deed, might be put from among you.
3 [c]For I verily as absent in body, but present in [d]spirit, have determined already as though I were present, that he that hath thus done this thing,
4 When ye are gathered together, and my spirit, in the [e]Name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that such one, I say, [f]by the power of our Lord Jesus Christ,
5 [g]Be [h]delivered unto Satan, for the [i]destruction of the flesh, that the spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus.
6 [j]Your rejoicing [k]is not good: know ye not that a little leaven leaveneth the whole lump?
7 [l]Purge out therefore the old leaven, that ye may be a new [m]lump, as ye are unleavened: for Christ our [n]Passover is sacrificed for us.
8 Therefore let us keep the [o]feast, not with old leaven, neither in the leaven of maliciousness and wickedness: but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.
9 [p]I wrote unto you in an Epistle, that ye should not company together with fornicators,
10 And not [q]altogether with the fornicators of this world, or with the covetous, or with extortioners, or with idolaters: for then ye must go out of the world.
11 But now I have written unto you, that ye company not together: if any that is called a brother, be a fornicator, or covetous, or an idolater, or a railer, or a drunkard, or an extortioner, with such one eat not.
12 [r]For what have I to do to judge them also which are without? do ye not judge them that are within?
13 But God judgeth them that are without. Put away therefore from among yourselves that wicked man.

- 1 Corinthians 5:5 The excommunicate is delivered to the power of Satan, in that, that he is cast out of the house of God.
- 1 Corinthians 5:5 What it is to be delivered to Satan, the Lord himself declareth when he saith, Let him be unto thee as an Heathen and Publican, Matt 18:17, that is to say, to be disfranchised, and put out of the right and liberty of the city of Christ, which is the Church, without which Satan is lord and master.
- 1 Corinthians 5:5 The end of excommunication is not to cast away the excommunicate, that he should utterly perish, but that he may be saved, to wit, that by this means his flesh may be tamed, that he may learn to live to the Spirit.
- 1 Corinthians 5:6 Another end of excommunication is, that others be not infected, and therefore it must of necessity be retained in the Church, that the one be not infected by the other.
- 1 Corinthians 5:6 Is naught, and not grounded upon good reason, as though you were excellent, and yet there is such wickedness found amongst you.
- 1 Corinthians 5:7 By alluding to the ceremony of the Passover, he exhorteth them to cast out that unclean person from amongst them. In times past, saith he, it was not lawful for them which did celebrate the Passover, to eat leavened bread: insomuch that he was holden as unclean and unworthy to eat the Passover, whosoever had but tasted of leaven. Now our whole life must be as it were the feast of unleavened bread, wherein all they that are partakers of that immaculate Lamb which is slain, must cast out both of themselves, and also out of their houses and Congregations all impurity.
- 1 Corinthians 5:7 By lump he meaneth the whole body of the Church, every member whereof must be unleavened bread, that is, be renewed in spirit, by plucking away the old corruption.

- 1 Corinthians 5:8 Let us lead our whole life, as it were a continual feast, honestly and uprightly.
- 1 Corinthians 5:9 Now he speaketh more generally; and that which he spake before of the incestuous person, he showeth that it pertaineth to others, which are known to be wicked, and such as through their naughty life are a slander to the Church, which ought also by lawful order be cast out of the community of the Church. And making mention of eating meat, either he meaneth those feasts of love whereat the Supper of the Lord was received, or else their common usage and manner of life which is rightly to be taken, lest any man should think that either matrimony were broken by excommunication, or such duties hindered and cut off thereby, as we owe one to another: children to their parents, subjects to their rulers, servants to their masters, and neighbor to neighbor, to win one another to God.
- 1 Corinthians 5:10 If you should utterly abstain from such men’s company, you should go out of the world: therefore I speak of them which are in the very bosom of the Church, which must be called home by discipline, and not of them which are without, with whom we must labor by all means possible, to bring them to Christ.
- 1 Corinthians 5:12 Such as are false brethren, ought to be cast out of the Congregation: as for them which are without, they must be left to the judgment of God.
