1 Corinthians 7:2-16

2but on accountG1223 of fornications, let each have his ownG2398 wifeG1135, and each [womanG1135] have her ownG2398 husbandG435.

3Let the husbandG435 renderG591 her due to the wifeG1135, and in like manner the wifeG1135 to the husbandG435.

4The wifeG1135 has not authorityG1850 over her ownG2398 bodyG4983, but the husbandG435: in like manner alsoG2532 the husbandG435 has not authorityG1850 over his ownG2398 bodyG4983, but the wifeG1135.

5DefraudG650 not oneG240 another, unless, it may beG1510, by consent for a timeG2540, that ye may devote yourselves to prayerG4335, and againG3825 beG1510 together, that SatanG4567 temptG3985 you not because of your incontinency.

6But this I sayG3004, as consenting [to], not as commanding [it].

7NowG1161 I wishG2309 all menG444 to beG1510 evenG2532 as myself: but every oneG1538 has his ownG2398 giftG5486 of 1GodG2316: oneG1538 manG444 thusG3779, and another thusG3779.

8But I sayG3004 to the unmarriedG22 and to the widowsG5503, It is goodG2570 for them that they remainG3306 evenG2532 as I.

9But if they have not control over themselves, let them marryG1060; for it isG1510 better to marryG1060 than to burnG4448.

10But to the marriedG1060 I enjoin, not I, but the LordG2962, Let not wifeG1135 be separatedG5563 from husbandG435;

11(but if alsoG2532 she shall have been separatedG5563, let her remainG3306 unmarriedG22, or be reconciled to her husbandG435;) and let not husbandG435 leaveG863 wifeG1135.

12But as to the restG3062, I sayG3004, not the LordG2962, If any brotherG80 have an unbelievingG571 wifeG1135, and she consent to dwell with him, let him not leaveG863 her.

13And a womanG1135 who has an unbelievingG571 husbandG435, and he consentsG4909 to dwell with her, let her not leaveG863 [her] husbandG435.

14For the unbelievingG571 husbandG435 isG1510 sanctifiedG37 in the wifeG1135, and the unbelievingG571 wifeG1135 isG1510 sanctifiedG37 in the brotherG80; since [otherwiseG1893] indeed your childrenG5043 areG1510 uncleanG169, but nowG1161 they areG1510 holyG40.

15But if the unbelieverG571 go away, let them go away; a brotherG80 or a sisterG79 is not bound in suchG5108 [cases], but 2GodG2316 has calledG2564 us in peaceG1515.

16For what knowest thou, O wifeG1135, if thou shalt saveG4982 thy husbandG435? or what knowest thou, O husbandG435, if thou shalt saveG4982 thy wifeG1135?
