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.
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.
