4 In the aname of our Lord Jesus Christ, when you are gathered together, along with my spirit, bwith the power of our Lord Jesus Christ,
5 adeliver such a one to bSatan for the destruction of the flesh, that his spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord1 Jesus.
6 aYour glorying is not good. Do you not know that ba little leaven leavens the whole lump?
7 Therefore1 purge out the old leaven, that you may be a new lump, since you truly are unleavened. For indeed aChrist, our bPassover, was sacrificed for us.
8 Therefore alet us keep the feast, bnot with old leaven, nor cwith the leaven of malice and wickedness, but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.
