* Now concerning the things whereof ye wrote (5656 ) unto me : It is good for a man not to touch (5733 ) a woman . * Nevertheless , to avoid fornication , let every man have (5720 ) his own wife , and let every woman have (5720 ) her own husband . * Let the husband render (5720 ) unto the wife due (5746 ) benevolence : and likewise also the wife unto the husband . * The wife hath not power (5719 ) of her own body , but the husband : and likewise also the husband hath not power (5719 ) of his own body , but the wife . * Defraud ye (5720 ) not one the other , except it be with consent for a time , that ye may give yourselves (5725 ) to fasting and prayer ; and come (5741 ) together again , that Satan tempt (5725 ) you not for your incontinency . * But I speak (5719 ) this by permission , and not of commandment .
