1 Corinthians 7:2-5

2But becauseG1223 of immoralitiesG4202, eachG1538 manG1538 is to haveG2192 his ownG1438 wifeG1135, and eachG1538 womanG1135 is to haveG2192 her ownG2398 husbandG435.

3The husbandG435 mustG3782 1fulfillG591 his dutyG3782 to his wifeG1135, and likewiseG3668 alsoG2532 the wifeG1135 to her husbandG435.

4The wifeG1135 does not haveG1850 authorityG1850 overG1850 her ownG2398 bodyG4983, but the husbandG435 does; and likewiseG3668 alsoG2532 the husbandG435 does not haveG1850 authorityG1850 overG1850 his ownG2398 bodyG4983, but the wifeG1135 does.

52StopG3361 deprivingG650 oneG240 anotherG240, exceptG1509 by agreementG4859 for a timeG2540, soG2443G3361 that you may devoteG4980 yourselvesG4980 to prayerG4335, and 3comeG1510 togetherG1909G3588G846 againG3825 soG2443G3361 that 4SatanG4567 will not temptG3985 you becauseG1223 of your lackG192 of self-controlG192.
