1 Corinthians 7

7:1

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>_.

7:2

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>_.

7:3

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>_.

7:4

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>_.

7:5

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>_.

7:6

But
<1161>

I speak
<3004> (5719)

this
<5124>

by
<2596>

permission
<4774>_,

[and] not
<3756>

of
<2596>

commandment
<2003>_.

7:7

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>_.

7:8

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>_.

7:9

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)_.

7:10

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>_:

7:11

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>_.

7:12

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)_.

7:13

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>_.

7:14

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>_.

7:15

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>_.

{to peace: Gr. in peace}

7:16

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>_?

{how: Gr. what}

7:17

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>_.

7:18

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)_.

7:19

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>_.

7:20

Let
<3306> (0)

every man
<1538>

abide
<3306> (5720)

in
<1722>

the same
<5026>

calling
<2821>

wherein
<1722> <3739>

he was called
<2564> (5681)_.

7:21

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>_.

7:22

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>_.

{freeman: Gr. made free}

7:23

Ye are bought
<59> (5681)

with a price
<5092>_;

be
<1096> (0)

not
<3361>

ye
<1096> (5737)

the servants
<1401>

of men
<444>_.

7:24

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>_.

7:25

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>_.

7:26

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)_.

{distress: or, necessity}

7:27

Art thou bound
<1210> (5769)

unto a wife
<1135>_?

seek
<2212> (5720)

not
<3361>

to be loosed
<3080> (5769)_.

Art thou loosed
<3089>

from
<575>

a wife
<1135>_?

seek
<2212> (5720)

not
<3361>

a wife
<1135>_.

7:28

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>_.

7:29

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>_;

7:30

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>_;

7:31

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)_.

7:32

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>_:

{that belong...: Gr. of the Lord}

7:33

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>_.

7:34

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>_.

7:35

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>_.

7:36

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)_.

7:37

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>_.

7:38

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>_.

7:39

The wife
<1135>

is bound
<1210> (5769)

by the law
<3551> <1909>

as long
<5550>

as
