1Corinthians:7:3-9
Seeker Overlay ON
*
Let the husband render unto the wife due benevolence :
and likewise also the wife unto the husband .
*
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 .
*
Defraud ye not one the other ,
except it be with consent for a time ,
that ye may give yourselves to fasting and prayer ;
and come together again ,
that Satan tempt you not for your incontinency .
*
But I speak this by permission ,
and not of commandment .
*
For I would that all men were even as I myself .
But every man hath his proper gift of God ,
one after this manner ,
and another after that .
*
I say therefore to the unmarried and widows ,
It is good for them if they abide even as I .
*
But if they cannot contain ,
let them marry :
for it is better to marry than to burn .
