1: Concerning_G4012 now_G1161 the things about which_G3739 you wrote:_G1125 [It is] good_G2570 for a man_G0444 a woman_G1135 not_G3361 to touch._G0680

2: Because of_G1223 however_G1161 -_G3588 sexual immorality,_G4202 each man_G1538 the [own]_G3588 of him_G1438 wife_G1135 let have,_G2192 and_G2532 each [woman]_G1538 the_G3588 own_G2398 husband_G0435 let have._G2192

3: To the_G3588 wife,_G1135 the_G3588 husband_G0435 the_G3588 duty_G3782 let fulfill;_G0591 likewise_G3668 now_G1161 also,_G2532 the_G3588 wife_G1135 to the_G3588 husband._G0435

4: The_G3588 wife,_G1135 the_G3588 own_G2398 body_G4983 not_G3756 has authority over,_G1850 but_G0235 the_G3588 husband;_G0435 likewise_G3668 now,_G1161 also_G2532 the_G3588 husband_G0435 of the_G3588 own_G2398 body_G4983 not_G3756 has authority over,_G1850 but_G0235 the_G3588 wife._G1135

5: Not_G3361 deprive_G0650 one another,_G0240 if_G1487 not_G3385 -_G0302 by_G1537 mutual agreement,_G4859 for_G4314 a time,_G2540 that_G2443 you might be at leisure_G4980 -_G3588 for prayer;_G4335 and_G2532 again,_G3825 together_G1909 the_G3588 same_G0846 be,_G1510 so that_G2443 not_G3361 may tempt_G3985 you_G4771 -_G3588 Satan,_G4567 through_G1223 the_G3588 lack of self-control_G0192 of you._G4771

6: This_G3778 now_G1161 I say_G3004 by way of_G2596 concession,_G4774 not_G3756 by way of_G2596 command._G2003

7: I wish_G2309 now_G1161 all_G3956 men_G0444 to be_G1510 like_G5613 even_G2532 myself._G1683 But_G0235 each_G1538 his own_G2398 has_G2192 gift_G5486 from_G1537 God;_G2316 one [has]_G3588 indeed_G3303 this,_G3779 one_G3588 however_G1161 that._G3779

8: I say_G3004 now_G1161 to the_G3588 unmarried_G0022 and_G2532 to the_G3588 widows,_G5503 [it is] good_G2570 for them_G0846 if_G1437 they should remain_G3306 as_G5613 even I._G2504

9: If_G1487 however_G1161 not_G3756 they have self-control,_G1467 let them marry;_G1060 better_G2909 for_G1063 it is_G1510 to marry_G1060 than_G2228 to burn with passion._G4448

10: To those_G3588 now_G1161 having married_G1060 I give this charge—_G3853 not_G3756 I,_G1473 but_G0235 the_G3588 Lord—_G2962 A wife_G1135 from_G0575 a husband_G0435 not_G3361 is to be separated;_G5563

11: if_G1437 however_G1161 indeed_G2532 she is separated,_G5563 let her remain_G3306 unmarried,_G0022 or_G2228 to the_G3588 husband_G0435 be reconciled;_G2644 and_G2532 a husband_G0435 a wife_G1135 not_G3361 is to send away._G0863

12: To the_G3588 now_G1161 rest_G3062 I say—_G3004 I_G1473 not_G3756 the_G3588 Lord:_G2962 If_G1487 any_G5100 brother_G0080 a wife_G1135 has_G2192 unbelieving,_G0571 and_G2532 she_G3778 consents_G4909 to dwell_G3611 with_G3326 him,_G0846 not_G3361 let him divorce_G0863 her._G0846

13: And_G2532 a woman_G1135 if_G1487 any_G5100 has_G2192 a husband_G0435 unbelieving,_G0571 and_G2532 he_G3778 consents_G4909 to dwell_G3611 with_G3326 her,_G0846 not_G3361 let her divorce_G0863 the_G3588 husband._G0435

14: Is sanctified_G0037 for_G1063 the_G3588 husband_G0435 -_G3588 unbelieving,_G0571 in_G1722 the_G3588 wife;_G1135 and_G2532 is sanctified_G0037 the_G3588 wife_G1135 -_G3588 unbelieving,_G0571 in_G1722 the_G3588 husband;_G0080 else_G1893 then_G0686 the_G3588 children_G5043 of you_G4771 unclean_G0169 are;_G1510 now_G3568 however_G1161 holy_G0040 they are._G1510

15: If_G1487 however_G1161 the_G3588 unbeliever_G0571 separates himself,_G5563 let him separate himself;_G5563 not_G3756 is under bondage_G1402 the_G3588 brother_G0080 or_G2228 the_G3588 sister_G0079 in_G1722 -_G3588 such [cases]._G5108 Into_G1722 however_G1161 peace_G1515 has called_G2564 you_G4771 -_G3588 God._G2316

16: How_G5101 for_G1063 know you,_G1492 wife,_G1135 if_G1487 the_G3588 husband_G0435 you will save?_G4982 Or_G2228 how_G5101 know you,_G1492 husband,_G0435 if_G1487 the_G3588 wife_G1135 you will save?_G4982

17: If_G1487 not_G3361 to each,_G1538 as_G5613 has assigned_G3307 the_G3588 Lord,_G2962 to each_G1538 as_G5613 has called_G2564 -_G3588 God,_G2316 so_G3779 let him walk._G4043 And_G2532 thus_G3779 in_G1722 the_G3588 churches_G1577 all_G3956 I prescribe._G1299

18: Having been circumcised_G4059 anyone_G5100 was called?_G2564 Not_G3361 let him be uncircumcised._G1986 In_G1722 uncircumcision_G0203 was called_G2564 anyone?_G5100 Not_G3361 let Him be circumcised._G4059

19: -_G3588 Circumcision_G4061 nothing_G3762 is,_G1510 and_G2532 -_G3588 uncircumcision_G0203 nothing_G3762 is,_G1510 but_G0235 keeping_G5084 [the] commandments_G1785 of God._G2316

20: Each_G1538 in_G1722 the_G3588 calling_G2821 in which_G3739 he has been called,_G2564 in_G1722 this_G3778 let him abide._G3306

21: Slave [being]_G1401 were you called,_G2564 not_G3361 to you_G4771 let it be a care;_G3199 but_G0235 if_G1487 also_G2532 you are able_G1410 free_G1658 to become,_G1096 rather_G3123 take advantage._G5530

22: The [one]_G3588 for_G1063 in_G1722 [the] Lord_G2962 having been called_G2564 [being] a slave,_G1401 a freedman_G0558 of [the] Lord_G2962 is;_G1510 likewise_G3668 the [one]_G3588 free_G1658 having been called,_G2564 a slave_G1401 is_G1510 of Christ._G5547

23: With a price_G5092 you were bought;_G0059 not_G3361 become_G1096 slaves_G1401 of men._G0444

24: Each_G1538 wherein_G1722 that_G3739 he was called,_G2564 brothers,_G0080 in_G1722 that_G3778 let him abide_G3306 with_G3844 God._G2316

25: Concerning_G4012 now_G1161 the_G3588 virgins,_G3933 a commandment_G2003 of [the] Lord_G2962 not_G3756 I have;_G2192 judgment_G1106 however_G1161 I give,_G1325 as_G5613 having received mercy_G1653 from_G5259 [the] Lord,_G2962 trustworthy_G4103 to be._G1510

26: I think_G3543 therefore_G3767 this_G3778 good_G2570 is,_G5225 because of_G1223 the_G3588 present_G1764 necessity,_G0318 that_G3754 [it is] good_G2570 for a man_G0444 -_G3588 in the same manner_G3779 to remain._G1510

27: Have you been bound_G1210 to a wife?_G1135 Not_G3361 seek_G2212 to be loosed._G3080 Have you been loosed_G3089 from_G0575 a wife?_G1135 Not_G3361 seek_G2212 a wife._G1135

28: If_G1437 however_G1161 also_G2532 you shall have married,_G1060 not_G3756 you did sin;_G0264 and_G2532 if_G1437 shall have married_G1060 the_G3588 virgin,_G3933 not_G3756 she did sin;_G0264 tribulation_G2347 however_G1161 in the_G3588 flesh_G4561 will have_G2192 -_G3588 such;_G5108 I_G1473 now_G1161 you_G4771 am sparing._G5339

29: This_G3778 now_G1161 I say,_G5346 brothers:_G0080 The_G3588 season_G2540 shortened_G4958 is._G1510 -_G3588 From now on_G3063 that_G2443 both_G2532 those_G3588 having_G2192 wives,_G1135 as_G5613 none_G3361 having_G2192 should be;_G1510

30: and_G2532 those_G3588 weeping,_G2799 as_G5613 not_G3361 weeping;_G2799 and_G2532 those_G3588 rejoicing,_G5463 as_G5613 not_G3361 rejoicing;_G5463 and_G2532 those_G3588 buying,_G0059 as_G5613 not_G3361 possessing;_G2722

31: and_G2532 those_G3588 using_G5530 the_G3588 world,_G2889 as_G5613 not_G3361 using [it] as their own._G2710 Is passing away_G3855 for_G1063 the_G3588 present form_G4976 of the_G3588 world_G2889 this._G3778

32: I desire_G2309 now_G1161 you_G4771 without concern_G0275 to be._G1510 The_G3588 unmarried man_G0022 cares for_G3309 the things_G3588 of the_G3588 Lord,_G2962 how_G4459 he should please_G0700 the_G3588 Lord;_G2962

33: the [one]_G3588 however_G1161 having been married,_G1060 cares for_G3309 the things_G3588 of the_G3588 world,_G2889 how_G4459 he should please_G0700 the_G3588 wife,_G1135

34: and_G2532 is divided._G3307 And_G2532 the_G3588 woman_G1135 -_G3588 unmarried_G0022 and_G2532 -_G3588 virgin,_G3933 cares for_G3309 the things_G3588 of the_G3588 Lord,_G2962 that_G2443 she should be_G1510 holy_G0040 both_G2532 in_G3588 body_G4983 and_G2532 in_G3588 spirit;_G4151 the [one]_G3588 however_G1161 having been married,_G1060 cares for_G3309 the things_G3588 of the_G3588 world,_G2889 how_G4459 she should please_G0700 the_G3588 husband._G0435

35: This_G3778 now_G1161 for_G4314 the_G3588 of you_G4771 yourselves_G0846 benefit_G4851 I say,_G3004 not_G3756 that_G2443 a restraint_G1029 you_G4771 I might place upon,_G1911 but_G0235 for_G4314 what_G3588 [is] seemly_G2158 and_G2532 devoted_G2145 to the_G3588 Lord,_G2962 without distraction._G0563

36: If_G1487 however_G1161 anyone_G5100 to be behaving improperly_G0807 to_G1909 the_G3588 virgin_G3933 of him_G0846 supposes,_G3543 if_G1437 she is_G1510 beyond youth,_G5230 and_G2532 so_G3779 it ought_G3784 to be,_G1096 what_G3739 he wills_G2309 let him do;_G4160 not_G3756 he does sin;_G0264 let them marry._G1060

37: He who_G3739 however_G1161 stands_G2476 in_G1722 the_G3588 heart_G2588 of him_G0846 firm,_G1476 not_G3361 having_G2192 necessity,_G0318 authority_G1849 however_G1161 having_G2192 over_G4012 the_G3588 own_G2398 will,_G2307 and_G2532 this_G3778 has judged,_G2919 in_G1722 the_G3588 own_G2398 heart,_G2588 to keep_G5083 -_G3588 the_G1438 virgin,_G3933 well_G2573 he will do._G4160

38: So then_G5620 also,_G2532 the [one]_G3588 marrying_G1061 the_G3588 own_G1438 virgin,_G3933 well_G2573 does;_G4160 and_G2532 the [one]_G3588 not_G3361 marrying,_G1061 better_G2908 will do._G4160

39: A wife_G1135 is bound_G1210 for_G1909 as long as_G3745 time_G5550 may live_G2198 the_G3588 husband_G0435 of her;_G0846 if_G1437 however_G1161 shall have died_G2837 the_G3588 husband,_G0435 free_G1658 she is_G1510 to whom_G3739 she wills_G2309 to be married,_G1060 only_G3440 in_G1722 [the] Lord._G2962

40: More blessed_G3107 however_G1161 she is,_G1510 if_G1437 in the same manner_G3779 she should remain,_G3306 according to_G2596 -_G3588 my_G1699 judgment;_G1106 I think_G1380 now_G1161 myself also_G2504 [the] Spirit_G4151 of God_G2316 to have._G2192
