1 Corinthians 7:1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40

• 1 Now concerning the things whereof ye wrote unto me: It is good for a man not to touch a woman.
• 2 Nevertheless, to avoid fornication, let every man have his own wife, and let every woman have her own husband.
• 3 Let the husband render unto the wife due benevolence: and likewise also the wife unto the husband.
• 4 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.
• 5 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.
• 6 But I speak this by permission, and not of commandment.
• 7 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.
• 8 I say therefore to the unmarried and widows, It is good for them if they abide even as I.
• 9 But if they cannot contain, let them marry: for it is better to marry than to burn.
• 10 And unto the married I command, yet not I, but the Lord, Let not the wife depart from her husband:
• 11 But and if she depart, let her remain unmarried, or be reconciled to her husband: and let not the husband put away his wife.
• 12 But to the rest speak I, not the Lord: If any brother hath a wife that believeth not, and she be pleased to dwell with him, let him not put her away.
• 13 And the woman which hath an husband that believeth not, and if he be pleased to dwell with her, let her not leave him.
• 14 For the unbelieving husband is sanctified by the wife, and the unbelieving wife is sanctified by the husband: else were your children unclean; but now are they holy.
• 15 But if the unbelieving depart, let him depart. A brother or a sister is not under bondage in such cases: but God hath called us to peace.
• 16 For what knowest thou, O wife, whether thou shalt save thy husband? or how knowest thou, O man, whether thou shalt save thy wife?
• 17 But as God hath distributed to every man, as the Lord hath called every one, so let him walk. And so ordain I in all churches.
• 18 Is any man called being circumcised? let him not become uncircumcised. Is any called in uncircumcision? let him not be circumcised.
• 19 Circumcision is nothing, and uncircumcision is nothing, but the keeping of the commandments of God.
• 20 Let every man abide in the same calling wherein he was called.
• 21 Art thou called being a servant? care not for it: but if thou mayest be made free, use it rather.
• 22 For he that is called in the Lord, being a servant, is the Lord's freeman: likewise also he that is called, being free, is Christ's servant.
• 23 Ye are bought with a price; be not ye the servants of men.
• 24 Brethren, let every man, wherein he is called, therein abide with God.
• 25 Now concerning virgins I have no commandment of the Lord: yet I give my judgment, as one that hath obtained mercy of the Lord to be faithful.
• 26 I suppose therefore that this is good for the present distress, I say, that it is good for a man so to be.
• 27 Art thou bound unto a wife? seek not to be loosed. Art thou loosed from a wife? seek not a wife.
• 28 But and if thou marry, thou hast not sinned; and if a virgin marry, she hath not sinned. Nevertheless such shall have trouble in the flesh: but I spare you.
• 29 But this I say, brethren, the time is short: it remaineth, that both they that have wives be as though they had none;
• 30 And they that weep, as though they wept not; and they that rejoice, as though they rejoiced not; and they that buy, as though they possessed not;
• 31 And they that use this world, as not abusing it: for the fashion of this world passeth away.
• 32 But I would have you without carefulness. He that is unmarried careth for the things that belong to the Lord, how he may please the Lord:
• 33 But he that is married careth for the things that are of the world, how he may please his wife.
• 34 There is difference also between a wife and a virgin. The unmarried woman careth for the things of the Lord, that she may be holy both in body and in spirit: but she that is married careth for the things of the world, how she may please her husband.
• 35 And this I speak for your own profit; not that I may cast a snare upon you, but for that which is comely, and that ye may attend upon the Lord without distraction.
• 36 But if any man think that he behaveth himself uncomely toward his virgin, if she pass the flower of her age, and need so require, let him do what he will, he sinneth not: let them marry.
• 37 Nevertheless he that standeth stedfast in his heart, having no necessity, but hath power over his own will, and hath so decreed in his heart that he will keep his virgin, doeth well.
• 38 So then he that giveth her in marriage doeth well; but he that giveth her not in marriage doeth better.
• 39 The wife is bound by the law as long as her husband liveth; but if her husband be dead, she is at liberty to be married to whom she will; only in the Lord.
• 40 But she is happier if she so abide, after my judgment: and I think also that I have the Spirit of God.

1 Corinthians 7:1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40

• 1 Now ^G1161 concerning ^G4012 the things whereof ^G3739 ye wrote ^G1125 unto me: ^G3427 It is good ^G2570 for a man ^G444 not ^G3361 to touch ^G680 a woman. ^G1135
• 2 Nevertheless ^G1161 , to avoid ^G1223 fornication, ^G4202 let every man ^G1538 have ^G2192 his own ^G1438 wife, ^G1135 and ^G2532 let every woman ^G1538 have ^G2192 her own ^G2398 husband. ^G435
• 3 Let the ^G3588 husband ^G435 render ^G591 unto the ^G3588 wife ^G1135 due ^G3784 benevolence: ^G2133 and ^G1161 likewise ^G3668 also ^G2532 the ^G3588 wife ^G1135 unto the ^G3588 husband. ^G435
• 4 The ^G3588 wife ^G1135 hath not power ^{G1850 G3756} of her own ^G2398 body, ^G4983 but ^G235 the ^G3588 husband: ^G435 and ^G1161 likewise ^G3668 also ^G2532 the ^G3588 husband ^G435 hath not power ^{G1850 G3756} of his own ^G2398 body, ^G4983 but ^G235 the ^G3588 wife. ^G1135
• 5 Defraud ^G650 ye not ^G3361 one the other, ^G240 except ^{G1509 G302} it be with ^G1537 consent ^G4859 for ^G4314 a time, ^G2540 that ^G2443 ye may give yourselves ^G4980 to fasting ^G3521 and ^G2532 prayer; ^G4335 and ^G2532 come together ^G4905 again, ^G3825 that ^G2443 Satan ^G4567 tempt ^G3985 you ^G5209 not ^G3361 for ^G1223 your ^G5216 incontinency. ^G192
• 6 But ^G1161 I speak ^G3004 this ^G5124 by ^G2596 permission, ^G4774 and not ^G3756 of ^G2596 commandment. ^G2003
• 7 For ^G1063 I would ^G2309 that all ^G3956 men ^G444 were ^G1511 even as ^{G5613 G2532} I myself. ^G1683 But ^G235 every man ^G1538 hath ^G2192 his proper ^G2398 gift ^G5486 of ^G1537 God, ^G2316 one ^{G3739 G3303} after this manner, ^G3779 and ^G1161 another ^G3739 after that. ^G3779
• 8 I say ^G3004 therefore ^G1161 to the ^G3588 unmarried ^G22 and ^G2532 widows, ^G5503 It is ^G2076 good ^G2570 for them ^G846 if ^G1437 they abide ^G3306 even as I ^{G2504 G5613} .
• 9 But ^G1161 if ^G1487 they cannot contain ^{G1467 G3756} , let them marry: ^G1060 for ^G1063 it is ^G2076 better ^G2909 to marry ^G1060 than ^G2228 to burn. ^G4448
• 10 And ^G1161 unto the ^G3588 married ^G1060 I command, ^G3853 yet not ^G3756 I, ^G1473 but ^G235 the ^G3588 Lord, ^G2962 Let not ^G3361 the wife ^G1135 depart ^G5563 from ^G575 her husband: ^G435
• 11 But ^G1161 and ^G2532 if ^G1437 she depart, ^G5563 let her remain ^G3306 unmarried, ^G22 or ^G2228 be reconciled ^G2644 to her husband: ^G435 and ^G2532 let not ^G3361 the husband ^G435 put away ^G863 his wife. ^G1135
• 12 But ^G1161 to the ^G3588 rest ^G3062 speak ^G3004 I, ^G1473 not ^G3756 the ^G3588 Lord: ^G2962 If any ^G1536 brother ^G80 hath ^G2192 a wife ^G1135 that believeth not, ^G571 and ^G2532 she ^G846 be pleased ^G4909 to dwell ^G3611 with ^G3326 him, ^G846 let him not ^G3361 put her away ^{G863 G846} .
• 13 And ^G2532 the woman ^G1135 which ^G3748 hath ^G2192 a husband ^G435 that believeth not, ^G571 and ^G2532 if he ^G846 be pleased ^G4909 to dwell ^G3611 with ^G3326 her, ^G846 let her not ^G3361 leave ^G863 him. ^G846
• 14 For ^G1063 the ^G3588 unbelieving ^G571 husband ^G435 is sanctified ^G37 by ^G1722 the ^G3588 wife, ^G1135 and ^G2532 the ^G3588 unbelieving ^G571 wife ^G1135 is sanctified ^G37 by ^G1722 the ^G3588 husband: ^G435 else ^{G1893 G686} were ^G2076 your ^G5216 children ^G5043 unclean; ^G169 but ^G1161 now ^G3568 are ^G2076 they holy. ^G40
• 15 But ^G1161 if ^G1487 the ^G3588 unbelieving ^G571 depart, ^G5563 let him depart. ^G5563 A brother ^G80 or ^G2228 a sister ^G79 is not ^G3756 under bondage ^G1402 in ^G1722 such ^G5108 cases : but ^G1161 God ^G2316 hath called ^G2564 us ^G2248 to ^G1722 peace. ^G1515
• 16 For ^G1063 what ^G5101 knowest ^G1492 thou , O wife, ^G1135 whether ^G1487 thou shalt save ^G4982 thy husband ^G435 ? or ^G2228 how ^G5101 knowest ^G1492 thou , O man, ^G435 whether ^G1487 thou shalt save ^G4982 thy wife ^G1135 ?
• 17 But ^G1508 as ^G5613 God ^G2316 hath distributed ^G3307 to every man, ^G1538 as ^G5613 the ^G3588 Lord ^G2962 hath called ^G2564 every one, ^G1538 so ^G3779 let him walk. ^G4043 And ^G2532 so ^G3779 ordain ^G1299 I in ^G1722 all ^G3956 churches. ^G1577
• 18 Is any man ^G5100 called ^G2564 being circumcised ^G4059 ? let him not ^G3361 become uncircumcised. ^G1986 Is any ^G5100 called ^G2564 in ^G1722 uncircumcision ^G203 ? let him not ^G3361 be circumcised. ^G4059
• 19 Circumcision ^G4061 is ^G2076 nothing, ^G3762 and ^G2532 uncircumcision ^G203 is ^G2076 nothing, ^G3762 but ^G235 the keeping ^G5084 of the commandments ^G1785 of God. ^G2316
• 20 Let every man ^{G1538 G1722 G5026} abide ^G3306 in ^G1722 the same ^G3588 calling ^G2821 wherein ^G3739 he was called. ^G2564
• 21 Art thou called ^G2564 being a servant ^G1401 ? care ^G3199 not ^G3361 for ^G4671 it: but ^G235 if ^G1487 thou mayest ^G1410 be made ^G1096 free, ^G1658 use ^G5530 it rather. ^G3123
• 22 For ^G1063 he that is called ^G2564 in ^G1722 the Lord, ^G2962 being a servant, ^G1401 is ^G2076 the Lord's ^G2962 freeman: ^G558 likewise ^G3668 also ^G2532 he that is called, ^G2564 being free, ^G1658 is ^G2076 Christ's ^G5547 servant. ^G1401
• 23 Ye are bought ^G59 with a price; ^G5092 be ^G1096 not ^G3361 ye the servants ^G1401 of men. ^G444
• 24 Brethren ^G80 , let every man, ^G1538 wherein ^{G1722 G3739} he is called, ^G2564 therein ^{G1722 G5129} abide ^G3306 with ^G3844 God. ^G2316
• 25 Now ^G1161 concerning ^G4012 virgins ^G3933 I have ^G2192 no ^G3756 commandment ^G2003 of the Lord: ^G2962 yet ^G1161 I give ^G1325 my judgment, ^G1106 as ^G5613 one that hath obtained mercy ^G1653 of ^G5259 the Lord ^G2962 to be ^G1511 faithful. ^G4103
• 26 I suppose ^G3543 therefore ^G3767 that this ^G5124 is ^G5225 good ^G2570 for ^G1223 the ^G3588 present ^G1764 distress, ^G318 I say , that ^G3754 it is good ^G2570 for a man ^G444 so ^G3779 to be. ^G1511
• 27 Art thou bound ^G1210 unto a wife ^G1135 ? seek ^G2212 not ^G3361 to be loosed. ^G3080 Art thou loosed ^G3089 from ^G575 a wife ^G1135 ? seek ^G2212 not ^G3361 a wife. ^G1135
• 28 But ^G1161 and ^G2532 if ^G1437 thou marry, ^G1060 thou hast not ^G3756 sinned; ^G264 and ^G2532 if ^G1437 a virgin ^G3933 marry, ^G1060 she hath not ^G3756 sinned. ^G264 Nevertheless ^G1161 such ^G5108 shall have ^G2192 trouble ^G2347 in the ^G3588 flesh: ^G4561 but ^G1161 I ^G1473 spare ^G5339 you. ^G5216
• 29 But ^G1161 this ^G5124 I say, ^G5346 brethren, ^G80 the ^G3588 time ^G2540 is short: ^G4958 it remaineth ^{G2076 G3063} , that ^G2443 both ^G2532 they that have ^G2192 wives ^G1135 be ^G5600 as though ^G5613 they had ^G2192 none; ^G3361
• 30 And ^G2532 they that weep, ^G2799 as though ^G5613 they wept ^G2799 not; ^G3361 and ^G2532 they that rejoice, ^G5463 as though ^G5613 they rejoiced ^G5463 not; ^G3361 and ^G2532 they that buy, ^G59 as though ^G5613 they possessed ^G2722 not; ^G3361
• 31 And ^G2532 they that use ^G5530 this ^G5129 world, ^G2889 as ^G5613 not ^G3361 abusing ^G2710 it: for ^G1063 the ^G3588 fashion ^G4976 of this ^G5127 world ^G2889 passeth away. ^G3855
• 32 But ^G1161 I would ^G2309 have ^G1511 you ^G5209 without carefulness. ^G275 He that is unmarried ^G22 careth for ^G3309 the things ^G3588 that belong to the ^G3588 Lord, ^G2962 how ^G4459 he may please ^G700 the ^G3588 Lord: ^G2962
• 33 But ^G1161 he that is married ^G1060 careth for ^G3309 the things ^G3588 that are of the ^G3588 world, ^G2889 how ^G4459 he may please ^G700 his wife. ^G1135
• 34 There is difference also between ^G3307 a wife ^G1135 and ^G2532 a virgin. ^G3933 The ^G3588 unmarried woman ^G22 careth for ^G3309 the things ^G3588 of the ^G3588 Lord, ^G2962 that ^G2443 she may be ^G5600 holy ^G40 both ^G2532 in body ^G4983 and ^G2532 in spirit: ^G4151 but ^G1161 she that is married ^G1060 careth for ^G3309 the things ^G3588 of the ^G3588 world, ^G2889 how ^G4459 she may please ^G700 her husband. ^G435
• 35 And ^G1161 this ^G5124 I speak ^G3004 for ^G4314 your own ^{G5216 G846} profit; ^G4851 not ^G3756 that ^G2443 I may cast ^G1911 a snare ^G1029 upon you, ^G5213 but ^G235 for ^G4314 that which is comely, ^G2158 and ^G2532 that ye may attend upon ^G2145 the ^G3588 Lord ^G2962 without distraction. ^G563
• 36 But ^G1161 if ^G1487 any man ^G5100 think ^G3543 that he behaveth himself uncomely ^G807 toward ^G1909 his ^G848 virgin, ^G3933 if ^G1437 she pass the flower of her age ^{G5600 G5230} , and ^G2532 need ^G3784 so ^G3779 require, ^G1096 let him do ^G4160 what ^G3739 he will, ^G2309 he sinneth ^G264 not: ^G3756 let them marry. ^G1060
• 37 Nevertheless ^G1161 he ^G3739 that standeth ^G2476 steadfast ^G1476 in ^G1722 his heart, ^G2588 having ^G2192 no ^G3361 necessity, ^G318 but ^G1161 hath ^G2192 power ^G1849 over ^G4012 his own ^G2398 will, ^G2307 and ^G2532 hath so ^G5124 decreed ^G2919 in ^G1722 his ^G848 heart ^G2588 that he will keep ^G5083 his ^G1438 virgin, ^G3933 doeth ^G4160 well. ^G2573
• 38 So then ^{G5620 G2532} he that giveth her in marriage ^G1547 doeth ^G4160 well; ^G2573 but ^G1161 he that giveth her not in marriage ^{G1547 G3361} doeth ^G4160 better. ^G2908
• 39 The wife ^G1135 is bound ^G1210 by the law ^G3551 as long as ^{G1909 G3745 G5550} her ^G848 husband ^G435 liveth; ^G2198 but ^G1161 if ^G1437 her ^G848 husband ^G435 be dead, ^G2837 she is ^G2076 at liberty ^G1658 to be married ^G1060 to whom ^G3739 she will; ^G2309 only ^G3440 in ^G1722 the Lord. ^G2962
• 40 But ^G1161 she is ^G2076 happier ^G3107 if ^G1437 she so ^G3779 abide, ^G3306 after ^G2596 my ^G1699 judgment: ^G1106 and ^G1161 I think ^G1380 also that I ^G2504 have ^G2192 the Spirit ^G4151 of God. ^G2316
