I wrote you in my letter1not to associate with immoralpeople;
10
I did not at all mean with the immoralpeople of thisworld, or with the covetous and swindlers, or with 2idolaters, for then you would have to go out of the world.
11
But actually, I wrote to you not to associate with anyso-called3brotherif he is an immoralperson, orcovetous, or4an idolater, or a reviler, or a drunkard, or a swindler -not even to eat with such a one.
12
For what have I to do with judging5outsiders*? 6Do you not judgethosewho are within the church?
13
But thosewho are outside, Godjudges. 7REMOVE THE WICKEDMAN FROM AMONGYOURSELVES*.
