I wrote unto youin an epistlenot to company with fornicators:
10Yetnotaltogether with the fornicatorsofthisworld, or with the covetous, orextortioners, or with idolaters; forthen must ye needsgo out of the world.
11Butnow I have written unto younot to keep company, if any man that is called a brotherbe a fornicator, orcovetous, or an idolater, or a railer, or a drunkard, or an extortioner; with such an one no not to eat.
12Forwhat have I to do to judge them also that are without?donotyejudge them that are within?
13But them that are withoutGodjudgeth. Therefore put awayfrom among yourselvesthat wicked person.
