1.Now for the matters you wrote about it: It is good for a man not to marry.
2.But since there is so much immorality, each man should have his own wife, and each woman her own husband.
3.The husband should fulfill his marital duty to his wife, and likewise the wife to her husband.
4.The wife's body does not belong to her alone but also to her husband. In the same way, the husband's body does not belong to him alone but also to his wife.
5.Do not deprive each other except by mutual consent and for a time, so that you may devote yourselves to prayer. Then come together again so that Satan will not tempt you because of your lack of selfcontrol.
6.I say this as a concession, not as a command.
7.I wish that all men were as I am. But each man has his own gift from God; one has this gift, another has that.
8.Now to the unmarried and the widows I say: it is good for them to stay unmarried, as I am.
9.But if they can not control themselves, they should marry, for it is better to marry than to burn with passion.
10.To the married I give this command (not I, but the Lord): A wife must not seperate from her husband.
11.But if she does, she must remain unmarried or else be reconciled to her husband.
And a husband must not devorce his wife.
12.To the rest I say this, (I, not the Lord) : If any brother has a wife who is not a believer and she is willing to live with him, he must not devorce her.
13.And if a woman has a husband who is not a believer and he is willing to live with her, she must not devorce him.
14.For the unbelieving husband has been sanctified through his wife, and the unbelieving wife has been sanctified through her believing husband. Otherwise, your children would be unclean, but as it is, they are holy.
15.But if the unbeliever leaves, let him do so. A believing man or woman is not bound in such circumstances; God has called us to live in peace.
16.How do you know, wife, whether you will save your husband? Or, how do you know, husband, whether you will save your wife?
17.Nevertheless, each one should retain the place in life that the Lord assigned to him and to which God has called him. This is the rule I lay down in all the churches.
18.Was a man already circumcised when he was called? He should not become uncircumcised. Was a man uncircumcised when he was called? He should not be circumcised.
19.Circumcision is nothing and uncircumcision is nothing. Keeping God's command is what counts.
20.Each man should remain in the situation which he was in when God called him.
21.Were you a slave when you were called? Don't let it trouble you- although if you can gain your freedom, do so.
22.For he who was a slave when he was called by the Lord is the Lord's freedman; similarly, he who was a free man when he was called is christ's slave.
23.You were bought at a price; do not become slaves of man.
24.Brothers, each man, as responsible to God, should remain in the situation God called him to.
25.Now about virgins: I have no command from the Lord, but I give a judgment as one who by the Lord's mercy is trustworthy.
26.Because of the present crisis, I think that it is good for you to remain as you are.
27.Are you married? Do not seek a devorce. Are you unmarried? Do not look for a wife.
28.But if you do marry, you have no sinned; and if a vergin marries, she has not sinned. But those who marry will face many troubles in this life, and I want to spare you this.
29.What I mean, brothers, is that the time is short. From now on those who have wives should live as if they had none;
30.those who mourn, as if they did not ; those who are happy, as if they are not; those who buy something, as if it were not theirs to keep;
31.those who use the things of the world, as if not engrossed in them. For this world in its present from is passing away.
32.I would like you to be free from concern. An unmarried man is concerned about the Lord's affairs - how he can please the Lord.
33.But a married man is concerned about the affairs of this world- how can he please his wife -
34.and his interests are divided. An unmarried woman or virgin is concerned about the Lord's affairs: Her aim is to be devoted to the Lord in both body and spirit. But a married woman is concerned about the affairs of this world- how she can please her husband.
35.I am saying this for your own good, not to restrict you, but that you may live in a right way in undivided devotion to the Lord.
36.If any one thinks he is acting improperly toward the vergin he is engaged to, and if she is getting along in years and he feels he ought to marry, he should do as he wants. He is not sinning. They should get married.
37.But the man who has settled the matter in his own mind, who is under no compulsion but has control over his own will, and who has made up his mind not to marry the virgin- this man also does the right thing.
38.So then, he who marries the virgin does right, but he who does not marry her does even better.
39.A woman is bound to her husband as long as he lives. But if her husband dies, she is free to marry anyone she wishes, but he must belong to the Lord.
40.In my judgment, she is happier if she stays as she is- and I think that I too have the spirit of God.
