1 Corinthians 7:1–9
1 Now concerning the things about which you wrote, it is agood for a man not to touch a woman.
2 But because of immoralities, each man is to have his own wife, and each woman is to have her own husband.
3 The husband must 1fulfill his duty to his wife, and likewise also the wife to her husband.
4 The wife does not have authority over her own body, but the husband does; and likewise also the husband does not have authority over his own body, but the wife does.
5 aStop depriving one another, except by agreement for a time, so that you may devote yourselves to prayer, and 1come together again so that bSatan will not tempt you because of your lack of self-control.
6 But this I say by way of concession, anot of command.
7 1Yet I wish that all men were aeven as I myself am. However, beach man has his own gift from God, one in this manner, and another in that.
8 But I say to the unmarried and to widows that it is agood for them if they remain beven as I.
9 But if they do not have self-control, alet them marry; for it is better to marry than to burn with passion.
