1 Corinthians 5:8-10
Contemporary English Version
1 Corinthians 5:8-10
Contemporary English Version
8 (A) So don't celebrate the festival by being evil and sinful, which is like serving bread made with yeast. Be pure and truthful and celebrate by using bread made without yeast.
9 In my other letter[a] I told you not to have anything to do with immoral people. 10 But I wasn't talking about the people of this world. You would have to leave this world to get away from everyone who is immoral or greedy or who cheats or worships idols.

9 I wrote to you in my letter not to associate(B) with sexually immoral people— 10 not at all meaning the people of this world(C) who are immoral, or the greedy and swindlers, or idolaters. In that case you would have to leave this world.
