1 Now I will speak of the things that were written to me. It would be good for someone not to get married.
1 Corinthians 7: 1
2 But there is a danger of sexual immorality. So every man should have his own wife. And every woman should have her own husband.
1 Corinthians 7: 2
3 The husband must give to his wife all that he is entitled to receive, and the wife must give to her husband what he is entitled to receive.
1 Corinthians 7: 3
4 A wife has no authority over her own body. While her husband has control over her body. In the same way, a husband has no authority over his own body while a wife has authority over her own body.
1 Corinthians 7: 4
5 Do not refuse to give your bodies to one another. But you can both agree to stay away from each other for a while. You can do this so that you can dedicate your time to prayer, then get together again. Then Satan will not be able to provoke you because of your weakness.
1 Corinthians 7: 5
6 I say this in order to allow you to be separated for a while. This is not a Hukam.
1 Corinthians 7: 6
7 I want everyone to be like me. But each one has his own gift from God. Someone has received a gift, someone else.
1 Corinthians 7: 7
8 This is what I want to say to those who are single and to widows; It is better for them to be alone than I am.
1 Corinthians 7: 8
9 But if they can’t control their desires, let them get married. Better a poor horse than no horse at all.
1 Corinthians 7: 9
10 Now I give orders to married people. This command is not from me, it is from the Lord. A wife should not leave her husband.
1 Corinthians 7:10
11 But if a woman leaves her husband, she must not remarry. Or she should go back to her husband. Also, a husband should not divorce his wife.
1 Corinthians 7:11
12 For I say this to everyone else, not to the Lord. A Christian can have a wife who is not a believer. And if she is willing to live with him, the man must not divorce her.
1 Corinthians 7:12
13 And a woman can marry a man who is not a believer. And if he wants to live with her, the woman must not divorce him.
1 Corinthians 7:13
14 A husband who is not a believer is sanctified by his wife. And a wife who is not a believer is sanctified by her husband. If this were not true, then your children would be unclean. But now your children are clean.
1 Corinthians 7:14
15 But if a man or woman who is not a believer decides to separate, let him or her go. If this happens, then one brother or sister is free in Christ. God called us to live in peace.
1 Corinthians 7:15
16 Wives, perhaps you will save your husbands, and husbands, perhaps you will save your wives. Even if you don’t know what will happen next.
1 Corinthians 7:16
