1 # Now <1161> concerning <4012> the things whereof <3739> ye wrote <1125> (5656) unto me <3427>: It is good <2570> for a man <444> not <3361> to touch <680> (5733) a woman <1135>.
2 Nevertheless <1223> <1161>, to avoid fornication <4202>, let <2192> <0> every man <1538> have <2192> (5720) his own <1438> wife <1135>, and <2532> let <2192> <0> every woman <1538> have <2192> (5720) her own <2398> husband <435>.
3 Let <591> <0> the husband <435> render <591> (5720) unto the wife <1135> due <3784> (5746) benevolence <2133>: and <1161> likewise <3668> also <2532> the wife <1135> unto the husband <435>.
4 The wife <1135> hath <1850> <0> not <3756> power <1850> (5719) of her own <2398> body <4983>, but <235> the husband <435>: and <1161> likewise <3668> also <2532> the husband <435> hath <1850> <0> not <3756> power <1850> (5719) of his own <2398> body <4983>, but <235> the wife <1135>.
5 Defraud ye <650> (5720) not <3361> one the other <240>, except <1509> <302> it be <5100> with <1537> consent <4859> for <4314> a time <2540>, that <2443> ye may give yourselves <4980> (5725) to fasting <3521> and <2532> prayer <4335>; and <2532> come <4905> (5741) together <1909> <846> again <3825>, that <3363> <0> Satan <4567> tempt <3985> (5725) you <5209> not <3363> for <1223> your <5216> incontinency <192>.
 - KAIROS - TIME
6 But <1161> I speak <3004> (5719) this <5124> by <2596> permission <4774>, and not <3756> of <2596> commandment <2003>.
7 For <1063> I would <2309> (5719) that all <3956> men <444> were <1511> (5750) even <2532> as <5613> I myself <1683>. But <235> every man <1538> hath <2192> (5719) his proper <2398> gift <5486> of <1537> God <2316>, one <3739> <3303> after this manner <3779>, and <1161> another <3739> after that <3779>.
8 I say <3004> (5719) therefore <1161> to the unmarried <22> and <2532> widows <5503>, It is <2076> (5748) good <2570> for them <846> if <1437> they abide <3306> (5661) even <2504> <0> as <5613> I <2504>.
9 But <1161> if <1487> they <1467> <0> cannot <3756> contain <1467> (5736), let them marry <1060> (5657): for <1063> it is <2076> (5748) better <2909> to marry <1060> (5658) than <2228> to burn <4448> (5745).
10 # And <1161> unto the married <1060> (5761) I command <3853> (5719), yet not <3756> I <1473>, but <235> the Lord <2962>, Let <5563> <0> not <3361> the wife <1135> depart <5563> (5683) from <575> her husband <435>:
11 But <1161> and <2532> if <1437> she depart <5563> (5681), let her remain <3306> (5720) unmarried <22>, or <2228> be reconciled <2644> (5649) to her husband <435>: and <2532> let <863> <0> not <3361> the husband <435> put away <863> (5721) his wife <1135>.
12 But <1161> to the rest <3062> speak <3004> (5719) I <1473>, not <3756> the Lord <2962> : If any <1536> brother <80> hath <2192> (5719) a wife <1135> that believeth not <571>, and <2532> she <846> be pleased <4909> (5719) to dwell <3611> (5721) with <3326> him <846>, let him <863> <0> not <3361> put <863> <0> her <846> away <863> (5720).
13 And <2532> the woman <1135> which <3748> hath <2192> (5719) an husband <435> that believeth not <571>, and <2532> if he <846> be pleased <4909> (5719) to dwell <3611> (5721) with <3326> her <846> , let her <863> <0> not <3361> leave <863> (5720) him <846>.
14 For <1063> the unbelieving <571> husband <435> is sanctified <37> (5769) by <1722> the wife <1135>, and <2532> the unbelieving <571> wife <1135> is sanctified <37> (5769) by <1722> the husband <435> : else <686> <1893> were <2076> (5748) your <5216> children <5043> unclean <169>; but <1161> now <3568> are they <2076> (5748) holy <40>.
15 But <1161> if <1487> the unbelieving <571> depart <5563> (5731), let him depart <5563> (5744) . A brother <80> or <2228> a sister <79> is <1402> <0> not <3756> under bondage <1402> (5769) in <1722> such <5108> cases: but <1161> God <2316> hath called <2564> (5758) us <2248> to <1722> peace <1515>.
16 For <1063> what <5101> knowest thou <1492> (5758), O wife <1135>, whether <1487> thou shalt save <4982> (5692) thy husband <435>? or <2228> how <5101> knowest thou <1492> (5758), O man <435> , whether <1487> thou shalt save <4982> (5692) thy wife <1135>?
17 # But <1508> as <5613> God <2316> hath distributed <3307> (5656) to every man <1538>, as <5613> the Lord <2962> hath called <2564> (5758) every one <1538>, so <3779> let him walk <4043> (5720). And <2532> so <3779> ordain I <1299> (5731) in <1722> all <3956> churches <1577>.
18 Is <2564> <0> any man <5100> called <2564> (5681) being circumcised <4059> (5772)? let him <1986> <0> not <3361> become uncircumcised <1986> (5737). Is <2564> <0> any <5100> called <2564> (5681) in <1722> uncircumcision <203>? let him <4059> <0> not <3361> be circumcised <4059> (5744) .
19 Circumcision <4061> is <2076> (5748) nothing <3762>, and <2532> uncircumcision <203> is <2076> (5748) nothing <3762>, but <235> the keeping <5084> of the commandments <1785> of God <2316>.
20 Let <3306> <0> every man <1538> abide <3306> (5720) in <1722> the same <5026> calling <2821> wherein <1722> <3739> he was called <2564> (5681).
21 Art thou called <2564> (5681) being a servant <1401>? care <3199> <0> <4671> not <3361> for it <3199> (5720): but <235> if <1499> thou mayest <1410> (5736) be made <1096> (5635) free <1658>, use <5530> (5663) it rather <3123>.
22 For <1063> he that is called <2564> (5685) in <1722> the Lord <2962>, being a servant <1401> , is <2076> (5748) the Lord's <2962> freeman <558>: likewise <3668> also <2532> he that is called <2564> (5685), being free <1658>, is <2076> (5748) Christ's <5547> servant <1401>.
23 Ye are bought <59> (5681) with a price <5092>; be <1096> <0> not <3361> ye <1096> (5737) the servants <1401> of men <444>.
24 Brethren <80>, let <3306> <0> every man <1538>, wherein <1722> <3739> he is called <2564> (5681), therein <1722> <5129> abide <3306> (5720) with <3844> God <2316>.
25 # Now <1161> concerning <4012> virgins <3933> I have <2192> (5719) no <3756> commandment <2003> of the Lord <2962>: yet <1161> I give <1325> (5719) my judgment <1106>, as <5613> one that hath obtained mercy <1653> (5772) of <5259> the Lord <2962> to be <1511> (5750) faithful <4103>.
26 I suppose <3543> (5719) therefore <3767> that this <5124> is <5225> (5721) good <2570> for <1223> the present <1764> (5761) distress <318>, I say, that <3754> it is good <2570> for a man <444> so <3779> to be <1511> (5750).
27 Art thou bound <1210> (5769) unto a wife <1135>? seek <2212> (5720) not <3361> to be loosed <3080>. Art thou loosed <3089> (5769) from <575> a wife <1135>? seek <2212> (5720) not <3361> a wife <1135>.
28 But <1161> and <2532> if <1437> thou marry <1060> (5661), thou hast <264> <0> not <3756> sinned <264> (5627); and <2532> if <1437> a virgin <3933> marry <1060> (5661), she hath <264> <0> not <3756> sinned <264> (5627). Nevertheless <1161> such <5108> shall have <2192> (5692) trouble <2347> in the flesh <4561>: but <1161> I <1473> spare <5339> (5736) you <5216>.
29 But <1161> this <5124> I say <5346> (5748), brethren <80>, the time <2540> is short <4958> (5772): it remaineth <2076> (5748) <3063>, that <2443> both <2532> they that have <2192> (5723) wives <1135> be <5600> (5753) as though <5613> they had <2192> (5723) none <3361>;
 - KAIROS - TIME
30 And <2532> they that weep <2799> (5723), as <5613> though they wept <2799> (5723) not <3361> ; and <2532> they that rejoice <5463> (5723), as <5613> though they rejoiced <5463> (5723) not <3361>; and <2532> they that buy <59> (5723), as <5613> though they possessed <2722> (5723) not <3361>;
31 And <2532> they that use <5530> (5740) this <5127> world <2889>, as <5613> not <3361> abusing <2710> (5740) it: for <1063> the fashion <4976> of this <5129> world <2889> passeth away <3855> (5719).
32 But <1161> I would have <1511> (5750) <2309> (5719) you <5209> without carefulness <275> . He that is unmarried <22> careth <3309> (5719) for the things that belong to <3588> the Lord <2962>, how <4459> he may please <700> (5692) the Lord <2962>:
33 But <1161> he that is married <1060> (5660) careth <3309> (5719) for the things that are <3588> of the world <2889>, how <4459> he may please <700> (5692) his wife <1135>.
34 There is difference also between <3307> (5769) a wife <1135> and <2532> a virgin <3933>. The unmarried woman <22> careth for <3309> (5719) the things <3588> of the Lord <2962>, that <2443> she may be <5600> (5753) holy <40> both <2532> in body <4983> and <2532> in spirit <4151>: but <1161> she that is married <1060> (5660) careth <3309> (5719) for the things <3588> of the world <2889>, how <4459> she may please <700> (5692) her husband <435>.
35 And <1161> this <5124> I speak <3004> (5719) for <4314> your <5216> own <846> profit <4851> (5723); not <3756> that <2443> I may cast <1911> (5632) a snare <1029> upon you <5213>, but <235> for that which <4314> is comely <2158>, and <2532> that ye may attend upon <2145> the Lord <2962> without distraction <563>.
36 # But <1161> if any man <1536> think <3543> (5719) that he behaveth himself uncomely <807> (5721) toward <1909> his <846> virgin <3933>, if <1437> she pass the flower of her age <5230> <5600> (5753), and <2532> need <3784> (5719) so <3779> require <1096> (5738), let him do <4160> (5720) what <3739> he will <2309> (5719), he sinneth <264> (5719) not <3756>: let them marry <1060> (5720).
37 Nevertheless <1161> he <3739> that standeth <2476> (5707) (5758) stedfast <1476> in <1722> his heart <2588>, having <2192> (5723) no <3361> necessity <318>, but <1161> hath <2192> (5719) power <1849> over <4012> his own <2398> will <2307>, and <2532> hath <2919> <0> so <5124> decreed <2919> (5758) in <1722> his <846> heart <2588> that he will keep <5083> (5721) his <1438> virgin <3933> , doeth <4160> (5719) well <2573>.
38 So <5620> then <2532> he that giveth her in marriage <1547> (5723) doeth <4160> (5719) well <2573>; but <1161> he that giveth her <1547> <0> not <3361> in marriage <1547> (5723) doeth <4160> (5719) better <2908>.
39 # The wife <1135> is bound <1210> (5769) by the law <3551> <1909> as long <5550> as <3745> her <846> husband <435> liveth <2198> (5719); but <1161> if <1437> her <846> husband <435> be dead <2837> (5686), she is <2076> (5748) at liberty <1658> to be married <1060> (5683) to whom <3739> she will <2309> (5719); only <3440> in <1722> the Lord <2962>.

40 But <1161> she is <2076> (5748) happier <3107> if <1437> she <3306> <0> so <3779> abide <3306> (5661), after <2596> my <1699> judgment <1106>: and <1161> I think <1380> (5719) also <2504> that I have <2192> (5721) the Spirit <4151> of God <2316>.
