¹It is actually reported that there is sexual immorality among you, and such sexual immorality as is not even named among the Gentiles, that one has his father’s wife.

¹Zvinonzwikwa chose kuti upombwe hwuripo pakati penyu, uye upombwe hwakadaro hwusingataurwi kunyange pakati pevahedheni, hwokuti mumwe ave nemukadzi wababa vake.

²You are puffed up, and didn’t rather mourn, that he who had done this deed might be removed from among you.

²Asi imwi munozvikudza, uye pachinzvimbo chaizvozvo hamuna kuchema, kuti uyo wakaita chiito ichi abviswe pakati penyu?

³For I most certainly, as being absent in body but present in spirit, have already, as though I were present, judged him who has done this thing.

³Nekuti ini zvirokwazvo, sendisipo pamuviri, asi ndiripo pamweya, ndatotonga uyo wakaita chiito ichi sendinenge ndiripo,

⁴In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, you being gathered together, and my spirit, with the power of our Lord Jesus Christ,

⁴Muzita raIshe wedu Jesu Kristu, maungana pamwe nemweya wangu nesimba raIshe wedu Jesu Kristu.

⁵are to deliver such a one to Satan for the destruction of the flesh, that the spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus.

⁵kukumikidza wakadai kuna Satani kuti nyama yake iparadzwe, kuti mweya uponeswe pazuva raIshe Jesu.

⁶Your boasting is not good. Don’t you know that a little yeast leavens the whole lump?

⁶Kuzvikudza kwenyu hakuna kunaka. Hamuzivi here kuti mbiriso shoma inovirisa bundu rose?

⁷Purge out the old yeast, that you may be a new lump, even as you are unleavened. For indeed Christ, our Passover, has been sacrificed in our place.

⁷Naizvozvo bvisai mbiriso yekare, kuti muve bundu idzva, sezvamusina kuviriswa. Nekuti nepasika yedu yakabayirwa isu, iye Kristu;

⁸Therefore let us keep the feast, not with old yeast, neither with the yeast of malice and wickedness, but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.

⁸saka ngatichengetedze mutambo, kwete nembiriso yekare, kana nembiriso yekuipa nekutadza; asi nechingwa chisina kuviriswa chakatendeka nechokwadi.

⁹I wrote to you in my letter to have no company with sexual sinners;

⁹Ndakakunyorerai mutsamba, kuti musafambidzana nemhombwe;

¹⁰yet not at all meaning with the sexual sinners of this world, or with the covetous and extortioners, or with idolaters; for then you would have to leave the world.

¹⁰asi kwete zvakazara nemhombwe dzenyika ino, kana nevachivi, kana makororo, kana vanonamata zvifananidzo, nekuti kana zvakadaro zvingafanira kuti mubude munyika.

¹¹But as it is, I wrote to you not to associate with anyone who is called a brother who is a sexual sinner, or covetous, or an idolater, or a slanderer, or a drunkard, or an extortioner. Don’t even eat with such a person.

¹¹Asi ikozvino ndakunyorerai kuti murege kufambidzana, kana munhu achiidzwa hama ari mhombwe, kana muchivi kana munamati wezvifananidzo kana munyombi kana chidhakwa kana gororo; musatongodya newakadai.

¹²For what have I to do with also judging those who are outside? Don’t you judge those who are within?

¹²Nekuti ini ndinei pakutongawo vari kunze? Imwi hamutongi vari mukati here?

¹³But those who are outside, God judges. “Put away the wicked man from among yourselves.” Deuteronomy 17:7; 19:19; 21:21; 22:21; 24:7

¹³Asi avo vari kunze Mwari unovatonga. Naizvozvo bvisai pakati penyu munhu uyo wakaipa.
