1 Corinthians 7:2-16

2ButG1161, becauseG1223 ofG1223 fornicationsG4202, let eachG1538 manG435 have hisG1223 ownG2398 wifeG1135, andG2532 let eachG1538 womanG1135 have herG435 ownG2398 husbandG435.

3Let theG3588 husbandG435 renderG591 unto theG3588 wifeG1135 herG435 dueG3782: andG2532 likewiseG3668 alsoG2532 theG3588 wifeG1135 unto theG3588 husbandG435.

4TheG3588 wifeG1135 hath notG3756 power overG1850 herG435 ownG2398 bodyG4983, butG1161 theG3588 husbandG435: andG2532 likewiseG3668 alsoG2532 theG3588 husbandG435 hath notG3756 power overG1850 hisG2532 ownG2398 bodyG4983, butG1161 theG3588 wifeG1135.

5DefraudG650 ye notG3361 oneG240 theG3588 otherG3825, exceptG1487 itG846 beG1510 byG1223 consent forG1223 aG1510 seasonG2540, thatG2443 ye mayG2532 give yourselvesG846 unto prayerG4335, andG2532 mayG2532 beG1510 togetherG1909 againG3825, thatG2443 SatanG4567 temptG3985 youG5210 notG3361 becauseG1223 ofG1537 yourG1487 incontinency.

6ButG1161 thisG3778 IG3778 sayG3004 byG2596 wayG2596 ofG2596 permission, notG3756 ofG2596 commandmentG2003.

7YetG2532 IG2532 wouldG2309 thatG3956 allG3956 menG444 wereG1510 evenG2532 asG5613 IG2532 myselfG1683. Howbeit eachG1538 manG444 hath hisG3956 ownG2398 giftG5486 fromG1537 GodG2316, oneG1538 afterG1161 thisG3779 mannerG3779, andG2532 another afterG1161 thatG3956.

8ButG1161 IG1437 sayG3004 toG3004 theG3588 unmarriedG22 andG2532 toG3004 widowsG5503, ItG846 is goodG2570 forG2532 themG846 ifG1437 theyG846 abideG3306 evenG2532 asG5613 IG1437.

9ButG1161 ifG1487 theyG1161 haveG1510 notG3756 continency, letG1510 themG1510 marryG1060: forG1063 itG1161 isG1510 betterG2909 toG2228 marryG1060 thanG2228 toG2228 burnG4448.

10ButG1161 unto theG3588 marriedG1060 IG1473 giveG3853 chargeG3853, yea notG3756 IG1473, butG1161 theG3588 LordG2962, ThatG1161 theG3588 wifeG1135 depart notG3756 fromG575 herG435 husbandG435

11(butG1161 andG2532 ifG1437 sheG1437 depart, letG863 herG863 remainG3306 unmarriedG22, orG2228 elseG2228 beG2532 reconciledG2644 toG2532 herG863 husbandG435); andG2532 thatG1437 theG3588 husbandG435 leaveG863 notG3361 hisG863 wifeG1135.

12ButG1161 toG3004 theG3588 restG3062 sayG3004 IG1473, notG3756 theG3588 LordG2962: IfG1487 anyG5100 brotherG80 hath anG2192 unbelievingG571 wifeG1135, andG2532 sheG846 is content toG3004 dwell withG3326 himG846, letG863 himG846 notG3756 leaveG863 herG846.

13AndG2532 theG3588 womanG1135 whichG3588 hath anG2192 unbelievingG571 husbandG435, andG2532 heG2532 is content toG2532 dwell withG3326 herG846, letG863 herG846 notG3361 leaveG863 herG846 husbandG435.

14ForG1063 theG3588 unbelievingG571 husbandG435 isG1510 sanctifiedG37 inG1722 theG3588 wifeG1135, andG2532 theG3588 unbelievingG571 wifeG1135 isG1510 sanctifiedG37 inG1722 theG3588 brotherG80: elseG2532 wereG1510 yourG2532 childrenG5043 uncleanG169; butG1161 nowG1161 areG1510 theyG2532 holyG40.

15YetG1161 ifG1487 theG3588 unbelievingG571 departeth, letG5563 himG2564 depart: theG3588 brotherG80 orG2228 theG3588 sisterG79 is notG3756 underG1722 bondageG1402 inG1722 suchG5108 cases: butG1161 GodG2316 hath calledG2564 usG1722 inG1722 peaceG1515.

16ForG1063 howG5101 knowest thou, O wifeG1135, whetherG1487 thou shalt saveG4982 thy husbandG435? orG2228 howG5101 knowest thou, O husbandG435, whetherG1487 thou shalt saveG4982 thy wifeG1135?
