1 Corinthians 7:5-9 Withdraw not yourselves one from another except it be with consent for a time, for to give yourselves to fasting and prayer, and afterward come again to the same thing, lest Satan tempt you for your incontinency.

MSTC⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁵ Withdraw not yourselves one from another except it be with consent for a time, for to give yourselves to fasting and prayer, and afterward come again to the same thing, lest Satan tempt you for your incontinency. ⁶ This I say of favour, not of commandment. ⁷ For I would that all men were as I myself am: but every man hath his proper gift of God, one after this manner, another after that. ⁸ I say unto the unmarried men, and widows: it is good for them if they abide even as I do, ⁹ but and if they cannot abstain, let them marry. For it is better to marry than to burn.
