1 ¶ Nowº concerningº the things whereofº ye wroteºª unto me:º [It is] goodº for a manº notº to touchºª a woman.º He treateth of marriage,2 Nevertheless,º¹ [to avoid]² fornication,º let¹ª every manº haveºª his ownº wife,º andº let¹ª every womanº haveºª her ownº husband.º 3 Let¹ª the² husbandº renderºª unto the² wifeº dueºª benevolence:º andº likewiseº alsoº the² wifeº unto the² husband.º shewing it to be a remedy against fornication:4 The² wifeº hath¹ª not¹ powerºª² of her ownº body,º butº the² husband:º andº likewiseº alsoº the² husbandº hath¹ª not¹ powerºª² of his ownº body,º butº the² wife.º 5 Defraud² ye¹ª notº one the other,º exceptºº [it be]¹ withº consentº forº a time,º thatº ye may give yourselvesºª to fastingº andº prayer;º andº come¹ª together¹¹² again,º that¹ª² Satanº temptºª youº not¹² forº yourº incontinency.º 6 Butº I speakºª thisº byº permission,º [and] notº ofº commandment.º 7 Forº I wouldºª that allº menº wereºª even¹ asº² I myself.º Butº every manº hathºª his properº giftº ofº God,º oneºº after this manner,º andº anotherº after that.º 8 I sayºª thereforeº to the² unmarriedº andº widows,º It isºª goodº for themº ifº they abideºª even¹ª as¹ I.º² 9 Butº ifº they¹ª cannot¹ contain,ºª² let them marry:ºª forº it isºª betterº to marryºª thanº to burn.ºª [4] Ho 3:3; Mt 19:9; Mk 10:11.

Virginity wherefore to be embraced.25 Nowº concerningº virginsº I haveºª noº commandmentº of the Lord:º yetº I giveºª my judgment,º asº one that hath obtained mercyºª ofº the Lordº to beºª faithful.º 26 I supposeºª thereforeº that thisº isºª goodº forº the² presentºª distress,º [I say], thatº [it is] goodº for a manº soº to be.ºª 27 Art thou boundºª unto a wife?º seekºª notº to be loosed.ºª Art thou loosedº fromº a wife?º seekºª notº a wife.º 28 Butº andº ifº thou marry,ºª thou hast¹ª notº sinned;ºª andº ifº a virginº marry,ºª she hath¹ª notº sinned.ºª Neverthelessº suchº shall haveºª troubleº in the² flesh:º butº Iº spareºª you.º 29 Butº thisº I say,ºª brethren,º the² timeº [is] short:ºª it remaineth,ººª thatº bothº they that haveºª wivesº beºª as thoughº they hadºª none;º 30 Andº they that weep,ºª as¹ though² they weptºª not;º andº they that rejoice,ºª as¹ though² they rejoicedºª not;º andº they that buy,ºª as¹ though² they possessedºª not;º 31 Andº they that useºª this¹² world,º asº notº abusingºª [it]: forº the² fashionº of this¹² worldº passeth away.ºª 32 Butº I would² haveºª¹ª youº without carefulness.º He that is unmarriedº careth¹ª for² the things² that belong to¹ the² Lord,º howº he may pleaseºª the² Lord:º 33 Butº he that is marriedºª careth¹ª for² the things² that are¹ of the² world,º howº he may pleaseºª [his] wife.º 34 There is difference [also] betweenºª a wifeº andº a virgin.º The² unmarried womanº careth forºª the thingsº of the² Lord,º thatº she may beºª holyº bothº in bodyº andº in spirit:º butº she that is marriedºª careth¹ª for² the thingsº of the² world,º howº she may pleaseºª [her] husband.º [25] Ps 78:63; 1Co 4:2; 7:6, 10, 12, 28, 34, 36, 40; 15:10; 2Co 2:17; 4:1; 8:8; 11:17; 1Ti 1:12.
