1 Corinthians 7:8-14

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.
