1 Corinthians 7:12-15

12But to the rest 1I say, not the Lord, that if any brother has a wife who is an unbeliever, and she consents to live with him, he must not 2divorce her.

13And a woman who has an unbelieving husband, and he consents to live with her, she must not 3send her husband away.

14For the unbelieving husband is sanctified through his wife, and the unbelieving wife is sanctified through 4her believing husband; for otherwise your children are unclean, but now they are 5holy.

15Yet if the unbelieving one leaves, let him leave; the brother or the sister is not under bondage in such cases, but God has called 6us 78to peace.
