8I say therefore to the unmarried and widows, It is good for them if they abide even as I.Select 1 Corinthians 7:8
9But if they cannot contain, let them marry: for it is better to marry than to burn.Select 1 Corinthians 7:9
10And unto the married I command, yet not I, but the Lord, Let not the wife depart from her husband:Select 1 Corinthians 7:10
11But and if she depart, let her remain unmarried, or be reconciled to her husband: and let not the husband put away his wife.Select 1 Corinthians 7:11
12But 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.Select 1 Corinthians 7:12
13And the woman which hath an husband that believeth not, and if he be pleased to dwell with her, let her not leave him.Select 1 Corinthians 7:13
14For 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.Select 1 Corinthians 7:14
15But 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.Select 1 Corinthians 7:15
16For what knowest thou, O wife, whether thou shalt save thy husband? or how knowest thou, O man, whether thou shalt save thy wife?Select 1 Corinthians 7:16
17But 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.Select 1 Corinthians 7:17
