11 (but even if she is separated, let her remain unmarried, or let her be reconciled to her husband), and that the husband is not to leave his wife.
12 But to the rest I say, (not the Lord); if some brother has an unbelieving wife and she consents to dwell with him, let him not leave her. 13 And if a wife who has an unbelieving husband, and he consents to dwell with her, let her not leave him. 14 For the unbelieving husband has been made holy by the wife and the unbelieving wife has been made holy by the husband.

Now God has called us in peace.
