3 (A)For I indeed, as absent in body but present in spirit, have already judged (as though I were present) him who has so done this deed. 4 In the (B)name of our Lord Jesus Christ, when you are gathered together, along with my spirit, (C)with the power of our Lord Jesus Christ, 5 (D)deliver such a one to (E)Satan for the destruction of the flesh, that his spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord [a]Jesus.
