⁹ When I wrote to you in my letter not to associate with the sexually immoral, ¹⁰ I did not at all mean the sexually immoral people of this world, or the greedy and swindlers, or idolaters, for then you would have to leave the world. ¹¹ But in this situation, I wrote to you not to associate with anyone who is called a brother if he is sexually immoral, or greedy, or an idolater, or verbally abusive, or a drunkard, or a swindler. Do not even eat with such a person. ¹² For what business is it of mine to judge people outside the church? Do you not judge those inside? ¹³ God will judge the people outside the church. “Remove the wicked man from among yourselves.”^[a]
