1 Corinthians 7:5-9 Do not deprive one another, unless by agreement for a time, that you may have freedom for prayer, and again come together. You must not let Satan tempt you through your lack of self-control.

Riverside⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁵ Do not deprive one another, unless by agreement for a time, that you may have freedom for prayer, and again come together. You must not let Satan tempt you through your lack of self-control. ⁶ I say this by way of indulgence, not by way of command. ⁷ I wish that every one were just as I am. But each has his own gift from God, one in one way and one in another. ⁸ I say to the unmarried and the widows, it is excellent for them to remain as I do. ⁹ But if they lack self-control, let them marry. It is better to marry than to burn.
