Bible verses about "whore" | Whiston

⁹ But I say unto you, Whosoever shall put away his wife, except for the cause of fornication, and shall marry another, committeth adultery.

²⁷ And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the women, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet.

⁴ Let marriage be honourable in all, and the bed undefiled: for whoremongers and adulterers God will judge.

⁷ Even as Sodom and Gomorrah, and the cities about them, in like manner with these, giving themselves over to fornication, and going after strange flesh, are set forth for an example, suffering the resemblance of eternal fire.

⁴ And the woman was arrayed in purple, and scarlet, and decked with gold, and precious stone, and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand, full of abominations and filthiness of her fornication.

¹ And there came out one of the seven angels who had the seven vials, and talked with me, saying, Come hither, I will shew unto thee the judgment of the great whore, that sitteth upon many waters: ² With whom the kings of the earth have committed fornication, and the inhabiters of the earth have been made drunk with the wine of her fornication. ³ So he carried me away in the spirit into the wilderness: and I saw a woman sit upon a scarlet coloured beast, full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads, and ten horns. ⁴ And the woman was arrayed in purple, and scarlet, and decked with gold, and precious stone, and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand, full of abominations and filthiness of her fornication. ⁵ And upon her forehead [was] a name written, Mystery Babylon the great, the mother of harlots, and abominations of the earth. ⁶ And I saw the woman drunken with the blood of the saints, and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus: and when I saw her, I wondered with great admiration. ⁷ And the angel said unto me, Wherefore didst thou marvel? I will tell thee the mystery of the woman, and of the wild beast that carrieth her, which hath the seven heads and ten horns. ⁸ The wild beast that thou sawest was, and is not; and shall ascend out of the abyss, and goes into perdition: and they that dwell on the earth shall wonder, whose names were not written in the book of life from the foundation of the world, when they behold the beast that was, and is not, and shall come, ⁹ And here [is] the mind which hath wisdom, The seven heads are seven mountains, on which the woman sitteth. ¹⁰ And they are seven kings: five are fallen, one is, the other is not yet come; and when he cometh, he must continue a short space. ¹¹ And the wild beast that was, and is not, even he is the eighth, and is of the seven, and goeth into perdition. ¹² And the ten horns which thou sawest, are ten kings, which have received no kingdom as yet; but receive power as kings one hour with the wild beast. ¹³ These have one mind, and give their power and strength unto the wild beast. ¹⁴ These shall make war with the Lamb, and the Lamb shall overcome them: for he is Lord of lords, and King of kings; and they that are with him, [are] called, and chosen, and faithful. ¹⁵ And he saith unto me, The waters which thou sawest, where the whore sitteth, are peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and tongues. ¹⁶ And the ten horns which thou sawest and the wild beast, these shall hate the whore, and make her desolate, and naked, and shall eat her flesh, and burn her with fire. ¹⁷ For God hath put into their hearts to fulfil his will, and to give their kingdom unto the wild beast, until the words of God shall be fulfilled. ¹⁸ And the woman which thou sawest, is that great city, which reigneth over the kings of the earth.

¹ Now concerning the things wherefore ye wrote unto me: [It is] good for a man not to touch a woman. ² Nevertheless, [to avoid] fornication, let every man have his own wife, and let every woman have an husband peculiar to her. ³ Let the husband render unto the wife what is due: and likewise also the wife unto the husband. ⁴ The wife hath not power of her own body, but the husband: and likewise also the husband hath not power of his own body, but the wife. ⁵ Defraud you not one the other, except with consent for a time, that ye may give your selves to prayer; and come together again, that Satan tempt you not for your incontinency. ⁶ But I speak this by permission, not by commandment. ⁷ But I would that all men were even as I my self: but every man hath his proper gift of God, one after this manner, and another after that. ⁸ I say therefore to the unmarried and widows, It [is] good for them if they abide even as I. ⁹ But if they cannot contain, let them marry: for it [is] better to marry than to burn. ¹⁰ And unto the married I command, not I, but the Lord, Let not the wife depart from the husband: ¹¹ But and if she depart, let her remain unmarried, or be reconciled to the husband: and let not the husband put away the wife. ¹² But to the rest speak I, not the Lord, If any brother hath a wife that believeth not, and she be pleased to dwell with him, let him not put her away. ¹³ And the woman who hath an husband that believeth not, and if he be pleased to dwell with her, let her not leave her husband. ¹⁴ For the unbelieving husband hath been sanctified by the believing wife, and the unbelieving wife hath been sanctified by the brother: else were your children unclean; but now are they holy. ¹⁵ But if the unbelieving depart, let him depart. A brother or a sister is not under bondage in such [cases]: but God hath called us to peace. ¹⁶ For what knowest thou, O wife, whether thou shalt save the husband? or how knowest thou, O man, whether thou shalt save the wife or not? ¹⁷ As the Lord hath distributed to every man, as God hath called every one, so let him walk: and so teach I in all churches. ¹⁸ Is any man called being circumcised? let him not become uncircumcised: is any called in uncircumcision? let him not become circumcised. ¹⁹ Circumcision is nothing, and uncircumcision is nothing, but the keeping of the commandments of God. ²⁰ Let every man abide in the same calling wherein he was called. ²¹ Art thou called a servant? care not for it; but if thou mayst be made free, use [it] rather. ²² For he that is called in the Lord, a servant, is the Lord's free-man: likewise also he that is called free, is Christ's servant. ²³ Are ye bought with a price? be not ye the servants of men. ²⁴ Brethren, let every man wherein he is called, therein abide with God. ²⁵ Now concerning virgins, I have no commandment of the Lord: yet I give my judgment as one that hath obtained mercy of the Lord to be faithful. ²⁶ I suppose therefore that this is good for the present distress, that it is good for a man so to be. ²⁷ Art thou bound unto a wife? seek not to be loosed. Art thou loosed from a wife? seek not a wife. ²⁸ But and if thou takest a wife, thou hast not sinned; and if a virgin marry, she hath not sinned: nevertheless, such shall have trouble in the flesh; but I spare you. ²⁹ But this I say, brethren, the time is short. It remaineth that both they that have wives, be as though they had none; ³⁰ And they that weep, as though they wept not; and they that rejoice, as though they rejoiced not; and they that buy, as though they possessed not; ³¹ And they that use this world, as not abusing it: for the fashion of this world passeth away. ³² But I would have you without carefulness. He that is unmarried, careth for the things that belong to the Lord, how he may please the Lord: ³³ But he that is married, careth for the things that are of the world, how he may please the wife. ³⁴ And there is a difference also between a wife and a virgin: The unmarried woman careth for the things of the Lord, that she may be holy, both in body and in spirit: but she that is married, careth for the things of the world, how she may please the husband. ³⁵ And this I speak for your own profit, not that I may cast a snare upon you; but for that which is comely, and that you may attend upon the Lord without distraction. ³⁶ But if any man think that he behaveth himself uncomely towards his virgin, if she pass the flower of [her] age, and need so require, let him do what he will, he sinneth not: let him marry. ³⁷ Nevertheless, he that standeth stedfast in his heart, having no necessity, but hath power over his own will, and hath so decreed in his heart, that he will keep his virgin, doth well. ³⁸ So then, he that giveth his virgin in marriage, doth well: and he that giveth [her] not in marriage, doth better. ³⁹ The wife is bound as long as her husband liveth: but if her husband be dead, she is at liberty to be married to whom she will; only in the Lord. ⁴⁰ But she is happier if she so abide, after my judgment: and I think also that I have the spirit of God.
