1 Corinthians 5:10-12
Worldwide English (New Testament)
10 But I wrote to you not to be friends with anyone who says he is a Christian and uses wrong sex, or always wants more, or has idols, or curses, or drinks too much strong drink, or steals. I told you not even to sit down to eat with such a person.
11 Why should I judge the people who are outside the church? You are to judge the church people.
12 God judges those who are outside. The holy writings say, `Send the bad person away from among you.'

1 Corinthians 5:10-12
New International Version
10 not at all meaning the people of this world(A) who are immoral, or the greedy and swindlers, or idolaters. In that case you would have to leave this world. 11 But now I am writing to you that you must not associate with anyone who claims to be a brother or sister[a](B) but is sexually immoral or greedy, an idolater(C) or slanderer, a drunkard or swindler. Do not even eat with such people.(D)
12 What business is it of mine to judge those outside(E) the church? Are you not to judge those inside?(F)
