6Your boasting is not good. Do you not know that a little 5:6 I.e., fermented doughleaven leavens the whole lump of dough?

6Your boasting is not good. Do you not know that a little leaven leavens the whole lump of dough?

6Your boasting [over the supposed spirituality of your church] is not good [indeed, it is vulgar and inappropriate]. 5:6 See note 3:16.Do you not know that [just] a little leaven ferments the whole batch [of dough, just as a little sin corrupts a person or an entire church]?

6Your boasting is not good. Do you not know that a little leaven works through the whole batch of dough?

6Your bragging is not good. It is like yeast. Don’t you know that just a little yeast makes the whole batch of dough rise?
