1 Corinthians 7:1-40

  1 G1161 Now G4012 concerning the things G3739 that G1125 you wrote G3427 unto me: G2570 It is good G444 for a man G3361 not G680 to touch G1135 a woman.
  2 G1223 Nevertheless, G4202 to avoid fornication, G1538 let every man G2192 have G1438 his own G1135 wife, G2532 and G1538 let every woman G2192 have G2398 her own G435 husband.
  3 G435 Let the husband G591 render G1135 unto the wife G3784 due G2133 affection: G1161 and G3668 likewise G2532 also G1135 the wife G435 unto the husband.
  4 G1135 The wife G1850 has G3756 not G1850 power G2398 over her own G4983 body, G235 but G435 the husband: G1161 and G3668 likewise G2532 also G435 the husband G1850 has G3756 not G1850 power G2398 over his own G4983 body, G235 but G1135 the wife.
  5 G650 Defraud G3361 not G240 each other, G5100 except G302   G1537 it be with G4859 consent G4314 for G2540 a time, G2443 that G4980 you may give yourselves G3521 to fasting G2532 and G4335 prayer; G2532 and G1909 come together G846   G3825 again, G2443 that G4567 Satan G3985 tempt G5209 you G3361 not G1223 for G5216 your G192 lack of self-control.
  6 G1161 But G3004 I speak G5124 this G2596 by G4774 permission, G3756 and not G2596 by G2003 commandment.
  7 G1063 For G2309 I would G3956 that all G444 men G1511 were G2532 even G5613 as G1683 I myself. G235 But G1538 every man G2192 has G2398 his G5486 proper gift G1537 of G2316 God, G3739 one G3303   G3779 after this manner, G1161 and G3739 another G3779 after that.
  8 G3004 I say G1161 therefore G22 to the unmarried G2532 and G5503 widows, G2076 It is G2570 good G846 for them G1437 if G3306 they stay G5613 even G2504 as I.
  9 G1161 But G1487 if G1467 they G3756 cannot G1467 restrain G1060 themselves, let them marry: G1063 for G2076 it is G2908 better G1060 to marry G2228 than G4448 to burn.
  10 G1161 And G1060 to the married G3853 I command, G3756 yet not G1473 I, G235 but G2962 the Lord, G3361 Let not G1135 the wife G5563 depart G575 from G435 her husband:
  11 G1161 But G2532   G1437 if G5563 she departs, G3306 let her remain G22 unmarried, G2228 or G2644 be reconciled G435 to her husband: G2532 and G863 let G3361 not G435 the husband G863 put away G1135 his wife.
  12 G1161 But G3062 to the rest G3004 speak G1473 I, G3756 not G2962 the Lord: G1536 If any G80 brother G2192 has G1135 a wife G571 that believes not, G2532 and G846 she G4909 is pleased G3611 to live G3326 with G846 him, G863 let him G3361 not G863 put G846 her G863 away.
  13 G2532 And G1135 the woman G3748 which G2192 has G435 a husband G571 that believes not, G2532 and G846 if he G4909 is pleased G3611 to live G3326 with G846 her, G863 let her G3361 not G863 leave G846 him.
  14 G1063 For G571 the unbelieving G435 husband G37 is sanctified G1722 by G1135 the wife, G2532 and G571 the unbelieving G1135 wife G37 is sanctified G1722 by G435 the husband: G1893 else G686   G2076 were G5216 your G5043 children G169 unclean; G1161 but G3568 now G2076 are they G40 holy.
  15 G1161 But G1487 if G571 the unbelieving G5563 depart, G5563 let him depart. G80 A brother G2228 or G79 a sister G3756 is G3756 not G1402 under bondage G1722 in G5108 such G1161 cases: but G2316 God G2564 has called G2248 us G1722 to G1515 peace.
  16 G1063 For G5101 what G1492 do you, G1135 know, O wife, G1487 whether G4982 you shall save G435 your husband? G2228 Or G5101 how G1492 do you G435 know, O man, G1487 whether G4982 you shall save G1135 your wife?
  17 G1487 But G3361   G5613 as G2316 God G3307 has distributed G1538 to every man, G5613 as G2962 the Lord G2564 has called G1538 every one, G3779 so G4043 let him walk. G2532 And G3779 so G1299 ordain I G1722 in G3956 all G1577 churches.
  18 G2564 Is G5100 any man G2564 called G4059 already circumcised? G1986 Let him G3361 not G1986 become uncircumcised. G2564 Is G5100 any G2564 called G1722 in G203 uncircumcision? G4059 Let him G3361 not G4059 be circumcised.
  19 G4061 Circumcision G2076 is G3762 nothing, G2532 and G203 uncircumcision G2076 is G3762 nothing, G235 but G5084 the keeping G1785 of the commandments G2316 of God.
  20 G1538 Let every man G3306 stay G1722 in G3778 the same G2821 calling G1722 where G3739   G2564 he was called.
  21 G2564 Are you called G1401 as a servant? G3361 Don't G3199 be bothered G4671 by it: G235 but G1487 if G2532   G1410 you may G1096 be made G1658 free, G5530 accept G3123 it willingly.
  22 G1063 For G3588 he that G2564 is called G1722 in G2962 the Lord, G1401 being a servant, G2076 is G2962 the Lord's G558 freeman: G3668 likewise G2532 also G3588 he that G2564 is called, G1658 being free, G2076 is G5547 Christ's G1401 servant.
  23 G59 You are bought G5092 with a price; G1096 be G3361 not G1096   G1401 the servants G444 of men.
  24 G80 Brothers, G1538 let every man, G1722 wherever G3739   G2564 he is called, G1722 in it G5129   G3306 stay G3844 with G2316 God.
  25 G1161 Now G4012 concerning G3933 virgins G2192 I have G3756 no G2003 commandment G2962 of the Lord: G1161 yet G1325 I give G1106 my judgment, G5613 as G1653 one that has obtained mercy G5259 of G2962 the Lord G1511 to be G4103 faithful.
  26 G3543 I suppose G3767 therefore G5124 that this G5225 is G2570 good G1223 for G1764 the present G318 distress, G3754 I say, that G2570 it is good G444 for a man G3779 so G1511 to be.
  27 G1210 Are you bound G1135 to a wife? G2212 Seek G3361 not G3080 to be freed. G3089 Are you free G575 from G1135 a wife? G2212 Seek G3361 not G1135 a wife.
  28 G1161 But G2532   G1437 if G1060 you marry, G264 you have G3756 not G264 sinned; G2532 and G1437 if G3933 a virgin G1060 marries, G264 she has G3756 not G264 sinned. G1161 Nevertheless G5108 such G2192 shall have G2347 trouble G4561 in the flesh: G1161 but G1473 I G5339 spare G5216 you.
  29 G1161 But G5124 this G5346 I say, G80 brothers, G4958 the time G3588 is short: G2076 it remains, G2532 that G3588 both G2192 they that G1135 have G5613 wives G3361 be as G5600 though G5600 they had G2443 none;
  30 G2532 And G3588 they G2799 that weep, G5613 as though G2799 they wept G3361 not; G2532 and G3588 they G5463 that rejoice, G5613 as though G5463 they rejoiced G3361 not; G2532 and G3588 they G59 that buy, G5613 as though G2722 they possessed G3361 not;
  31 G2532 And G3588 they G5530 that use G5129 this G2889 world, G5613 as G3361 not G2710 abusing G1063 it: for G4976 the fashion G5127 of this G2889 world G3855 passes away.
  32 G1161 But G2309 I would have G5209 you G275 without cares. G3588 He G1511 that is G22 unmarried G3309 cares for G3588 the things G2962 that belong to the Lord, G4459 how G700 he may please G2962 the Lord:
  33 G1161 But G3588 he G1060 that is married G3309 cares for G3588 the things G2889 that are of the world, G4459 how G700 he may please G1135 his wife.
  34 G3307 There is difference G3307 also between G1135 a wife G2532 and G3933 a virgin. G22 The unmarried G3309 woman cares for G3588 the things G2962 of the Lord, G2443 that G5600 she may be G40 holy G2532 both G4983 in body G2532 and G4151 in spirit: G1161 but G3588 she G1060 that is married G3309 cares for G3588 the things G2889 of the world, G4459 how G700 she may please G435 her husband.
  35 G1161 And G5124 this G3004 I speak G4314 for G5216 your G846 own G4851 profit; G3756 not G2443 that G1911 I may cast G1029 a snare G5213 upon you, G235 but G4314 for G2158 that which is fitting, G2532 and G2145 that you may attend upon G2962 the Lord G563 without distraction.
  36 G1161 But G1487 if G5100 any man G3543 think G3739 that G807 he behaves G846 himself G807 unseemly G1909 toward G3933 his virgin, G1437 if G5600 she is past G5230 the flower of G5230 her age, G2532 and G3784 needs G3779 so G1096 require, G4160 let him do G2309 what he will, G264 he sins G3756 not: G1060 let them marry.
  37 G1161 Nevertheless G3739 he that G2476 stands G1476 steadfast G1722 in G2588 his heart, G2192 having G3361 no G318 necessity, G1161 but G2192 has G1849 power G4012 over G2398 his own G2307 will, G2532 and G2919 has G5124 so G2919 decreed G1722 in G846 his G2588 heart G5083 that he will keep G1438 his G3933 virgin, G4160 does G2476 well.
  38 G5620 So G2532 then G3588 he G1547 that gives G1547 her in marriage G4160 does G2573 well; G1161 but G3588 he G1547 that gives G3361 her not G1547 in marriage G4160 does G2908 better.
  39 G1135 The wife G1210 is bound G3551 by the law G1909 as G5550 long G3745 as G846 her G435 husband G2198 lives; G1161 but G1437 if G846 her G435 husband G2837 is dead, G2076 she is G1658 at liberty G1060 to be married to G3739 whom G2309 she will; G3440 only G1722 in G2962 the Lord.
  40 G1161 But G2076 she is G3107 happier G1437 if G3306 she G3779   G3306 stays G2596 as she is, after G1699 my G1106 judgment: G1161 and G2504 I G1380 think G2504 also G2192 that I have G4151 the Spirit G2316 of God.

1 Corinthians 7:7

  7 G1063 For G2309 I would G3956 that all G444 men G1511 were G2532 even G5613 as G1683 I myself. G235 But G1538 every man G2192 has G2398 his G5486 proper gift G1537 of G2316 God, G3739 one G3303   G3779 after this manner, G1161 and G3739 another G3779 after that.

1 Corinthians 7:32

  32 G1161 But G2309 I would have G5209 you G275 without cares. G3588 He G1511 that is G22 unmarried G3309 cares for G3588 the things G2962 that belong to the Lord, G4459 how G700 he may please G2962 the Lord:

1 Corinthians 7:8

  8 G3004 I say G1161 therefore G22 to the unmarried G2532 and G5503 widows, G2076 It is G2570 good G846 for them G1437 if G3306 they stay G5613 even G2504 as I.
