1 Corinthians 5:5-7
New King James Version
5 (A)deliver such a one to (B)Satan for the destruction of the flesh, that his spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord [a]Jesus.
6 (C)Your glorying is not good. Do you not know that (D)a little leaven leavens the whole lump? 7 Therefore [b]purge out the old leaven, that you may be a new lump, since you truly are unleavened. For indeed (E)Christ, our (F)Passover, was sacrificed [c]for us.
