1 Corinthians 5:9-13

9 I wrote you in my letter 1not to associate with immoral people;
10 I did not at all mean with the immoral people of this world, 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 any so-called 3brother if he is an immoral person, or covetous, or 4an 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 judging 5outsiders *? 6Do you not judge those who are within the church?
13 But those who are outside, God judges. 7REMOVE THE WICKED MAN FROM AMONG YOURSELVES *.
