1 Corinthians 5:6-8
New Living Translation
6 Your boasting about this is terrible. Don’t you realize that this sin is like a little yeast that spreads through the whole batch of dough? 7 Get rid of the old “yeast” by removing this wicked person from among you. Then you will be like a fresh batch of dough made without yeast, which is what you really are. Christ, our Passover Lamb, has been sacrificed for us.[a] 8 So let us celebrate the festival, not with the old bread[b] of wickedness and evil, but with the new bread[c] of sincerity and truth.

New American Standard Bible
6 (A)Your boasting is not good. (B)Do you not know that (C)a little [a]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 (D)Passover also has been sacrificed. 8 Therefore let’s celebrate the feast, (E)not with old leaven, nor with the leaven of malice and wickedness, but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.
