| 7:1 | Now concerning the things whereof ye wrote unto me: It is good for a man not to touch a woman. |
| 7:2 | Nevertheless, to avoid fornication, let every man have his own wife, and let every woman have her own husband. |
| 7:3 | Let the husband render unto the wife due benevolence: and likewise also the wife unto the husband. |
| 7:4 | The wife hath not power of her own body, but the husband: and likewise also the husband hath not power of his own body, but the wife. |
| 7:5 | Defraud ye not one the other, except it be with consent for a time, that ye may give yourselves to fasting and prayer; and come together again, that Satan tempt you not for your incontinency. |
| 7:6 | But I speak this by permission, and not of commandment. |
| 7:7 | For I would that all men were even as I myself. But every man hath his proper gift of God, one after this manner, and another after that. |
| 7:8 | I say therefore to the unmarried and widows, It is good for them if they abide even as I. |
| 7:9 | But if they cannot contain, let them marry: for it is better to marry than to burn. |
| 7:10 | And unto the married I command, yet not I, but the Lord, Let not the wife depart from her husband: |
| 7:11 | But and if she depart, let her remain unmarried, or be reconciled to her husband: and let not the husband put away his wife. |
| 7:12 | But 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. |
| 7:13 | And the woman which hath an husband that believeth not, and if he be pleased to dwell with her, let her not leave him. |
| 7:14 | For 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. |
| 7:15 | But 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. |
| 7:16 | For what knowest thou, O wife, whether thou shalt save thy husband? or how knowest thou, O man, whether thou shalt save thy wife? |
| 7:17 | But 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. |
| 7:18 | Is any man called being circumcised? let him not become uncircumcised. Is any called in uncircumcision? let him not be circumcised. |
| 7:19 | Circumcision is nothing, and uncircumcision is nothing, but the keeping of the commandments of God. |
| 7:20 | Let every man abide in the same calling wherein he was called. |
| 7:21 | Art thou called being a servant? care not for it: but if thou mayest be made free, use it rather. |
| 7:22 | For he that is called in the Lord, being a servant, is the Lord's freeman: likewise also he that is called, being free, is Christ's servant. |
| 7:23 | Ye are bought with a price; be not ye the servants of men. |
| 7:24 | Brethren, let every man, wherein he is called, therein abide with God. |
| 7:25 | Now concerning virgins I have no commandment of the Lord: yet I give my judgment, as one that hath obtained mercy of the Lord to be faithful. |
| 7:26 | I suppose therefore that this is good for the present distress, I say, that it is good for a man so to be. |
| 7:27 | Art thou bound unto a wife? seek not to be loosed. Art thou loosed from a wife? seek not a wife. |
| 7:28 | But and if thou marry, thou hast not sinned; and if a virgin marry, she hath not sinned. Nevertheless such shall have trouble in the flesh: but I spare you. |
| 7:29 | But this I say, brethren, the time is short: it remaineth, that both they that have wives be as though they had none; |
| 7:30 | And they that weep, as though they wept not; and they that rejoice, as though they rejoiced not; and they that buy, as though they possessed not; |
| 7:31 | And they that use this world, as not abusing it: for the fashion of this world passeth away. |
| 7:32 | But I would have you without carefulness. He that is unmarried careth for the things that belong to the Lord, how he may please the Lord: |
| 7:33 | But he that is married careth for the things that are of the world, how he may please his wife. |
| 7:34 | There is difference also between a wife and a virgin. The unmarried woman careth for the things of the Lord, that she may be holy both in body and in spirit: but she that is married careth for the things of the world, how she may please her husband. |
| 7:35 | And this I speak for your own profit; not that I may cast a snare upon you, but for that which is comely, and that ye may attend upon the Lord without distraction. |
| 7:36 | But if any man think that he behaveth himself uncomely toward his virgin, if she pass the flower of her age, and need so require, let him do what he will, he sinneth not: let them marry. |
| 7:37 | Nevertheless he that standeth stedfast in his heart, having no necessity, but hath power over his own will, and hath so decreed in his heart that he will keep his virgin, doeth well. |
| 7:38 | So then he that giveth her in marriage doeth well; but he that giveth her not in marriage doeth better. |
| 7:39 | The wife is bound by the law as long as her husband liveth; but if her husband be dead, she is at liberty to be married to whom she will; only in the Lord. |
| 7:40 | But she is happier if she so abide, after my judgment: and I think also that I have the Spirit of God. |

| 7:1 | περι δε ων εγραψατε μοι καλον ανθρωπω γυναικος μη απτεσθαι |
| 7:2 | δια δε τας πορνειας εκαστος την εαυτου γυναικα εχετω και εκαστη τον ιδιον ανδρα εχετω |
| 7:3 | τη γυναικι ο ανηρ την οφειλομενην ευνοιαν αποδιδοτω ομοιως δε και η γυνη τω ανδρι |
| 7:4 | η γυνη του ιδιου σωματος ουκ εξουσιαζει αλλ ο ανηρ ομοιως δε και ο ανηρ του ιδιου σωματος ουκ εξουσιαζει αλλ η γυνη |
| 7:5 | μη αποστερειτε αλληλους ει μη τι αν εκ συμφωνου προς καιρον ινα σχολαζητε τη νηστεια και τη προσευχη και παλιν επι το αυτο συνερχεσθε ινα μη πειραζη υμας ο σατανας δια την ακρασιαν υμων |
| 7:6 | τουτο δε λεγω κατα συγγνωμην ου κατ επιταγην |
| 7:7 | θελω γαρ παντας ανθρωπους ειναι ως και εμαυτον αλλ εκαστος ιδιον χαρισμα εχει εκ θεου ος μεν ουτως ος δε ουτως |
| 7:8 | λεγω δε τοις αγαμοις και ταις χηραις καλον αυτοις εστιν εαν μεινωσιν ως καγω |
| 7:9 | ει δε ουκ εγκρατευονται γαμησατωσαν κρεισσον γαρ εστιν γαμησαι η πυρουσθαι |
| 7:10 | τοις δε γεγαμηκοσιν παραγγελλω ουκ εγω αλλ ο κυριος γυναικα απο ανδρος μη χωρισθηναι |
| 7:11 | εαν δε και χωρισθη μενετω αγαμος η τω ανδρι καταλλαγητω και ανδρα γυναικα μη αφιεναι |
| 7:12 | τοις δε λοιποις εγω λεγω ουχ ο κυριος ει τις αδελφος γυναικα εχει απιστον και αυτη συνευδοκει οικειν μετ αυτου μη αφιετω αυτην |
| 7:13 | και γυνη ητις εχει ανδρα απιστον και αυτος συνευδοκει οικειν μετ αυτης μη αφιετω αυτον |
| 7:14 | ηγιασται γαρ ο ανηρ ο απιστος εν τη γυναικι και ηγιασται η γυνη η απιστος εν τω ανδρι επει αρα τα τεκνα υμων ακαθαρτα εστιν νυν δε αγια εστιν |
| 7:15 | ει δε ο απιστος χωριζεται χωριζεσθω ου δεδουλωται ο αδελφος η η αδελφη εν τοις τοιουτοις εν δε ειρηνη κεκληκεν ημας ο θεος |
| 7:16 | τι γαρ οιδας γυναι ει τον ανδρα σωσεις η τι οιδας ανερ ει την γυναικα σωσεις |
| 7:17 | ει μη εκαστω ως εμερισεν ο θεος εκαστον ως κεκληκεν ο κυριος ουτως περιπατειτω και ουτως εν ταις εκκλησιαις πασαις διατασσομαι |
| 7:18 | περιτετμημενος τις εκληθη μη επισπασθω εν ακροβυστια τις εκληθη μη περιτεμνεσθω |
| 7:19 | η περιτομη ουδεν εστιν και η ακροβυστια ουδεν εστιν αλλα τηρησις εντολων θεου |
| 7:20 | εκαστος εν τη κλησει η εκληθη εν ταυτη μενετω |
| 7:21 | δουλος εκληθης μη σοι μελετω αλλ ει και δυνασαι ελευθερος γενεσθαι μαλλον χρησαι |
| 7:22 | ο γαρ εν κυριω κληθεις δουλος απελευθερος κυριου εστιν ομοιως και ο ελευθερος κληθεις δουλος εστιν χριστου |
| 7:23 | τιμης ηγορασθητε μη γινεσθε δουλοι ανθρωπων |
| 7:24 | εκαστος εν ω εκληθη αδελφοι εν τουτω μενετω παρα τω θεω |
| 7:25 | περι δε των παρθενων επιταγην κυριου ουκ εχω γνωμην δε διδωμι ως ηλεημενος υπο κυριου πιστος ειναι |
| 7:26 | νομιζω ουν τουτο καλον υπαρχειν δια την ενεστωσαν αναγκην οτι καλον ανθρωπω το ουτως ειναι |
| 7:27 | δεδεσαι γυναικι μη ζητει λυσιν λελυσαι απο γυναικος μη ζητει γυναικα |
| 7:28 | εαν δε και γημης ουχ ημαρτες και εαν γημη η παρθενος ουχ ημαρτεν θλιψιν δε τη σαρκι εξουσιν οι τοιουτοι εγω δε υμων φειδομαι |
| 7:29 | τουτο δε φημι αδελφοι οτι ο καιρος συνεσταλμενος το λοιπον εστιν ινα και εχοντες γυναικας ως μη εχοντες ωσιν |
| 7:30 | και οι κλαιοντες ως μη κλαιοντες και οι χαιροντες ως μη χαιροντες και οι αγοραζοντες ως μη κατεχοντες |
| 7:31 | και οι χρωμενοι τω κοσμω τουτω ως μη καταχρωμενοι παραγει γαρ το σχημα του κοσμου τουτου |
| 7:32 | θελω δε υμας αμεριμνους ειναι ο αγαμος μεριμνα τα του κυριου πως αρεσει τω κυριω |
| 7:33 | ο δε γαμησας μεριμνα τα του κοσμου πως αρεσει τη γυναικι |
| 7:34 | μεμερισται η γυνη και η παρθενος η αγαμος μεριμνα τα του κυριου ινα η αγια και σωματι και πνευματι η δε γαμησασα μεριμνα τα του κοσμου πως αρεσει τω ανδρι |
| 7:35 | τουτο δε προς το υμων αυτων συμφερον λεγω ουχ ινα βροχον υμιν επιβαλω αλλα προς το ευσχημον και ευπροσεδρον τω κυριω απερισπαστως |
| 7:36 | ει δε τις ασχημονειν επι την παρθενον αυτου νομιζει εαν η υπερακμος και ουτως οφειλει γινεσθαι ο θελει ποιειτω ουχ αμαρτανει γαμειτωσαν |
| 7:37 | ος δε εστηκεν εδραιος εν τη καρδια μη εχων αναγκην εξουσιαν δε εχει περι του ιδιου θεληματος και τουτο κεκρικεν εν τη καρδια αυτου του τηρειν την εαυτου παρθενον καλως ποιει |
| 7:38 | ωστε και ο εκγαμιζων καλως ποιει ο δε μη εκγαμιζων κρεισσον ποιει |
| 7:39 | γυνη δεδεται νομω εφ οσον χρονον ζη ο ανηρ αυτης εαν δε κοιμηθη ο ανηρ αυτης ελευθερα εστιν ω θελει γαμηθηναι μονον εν κυριω |
| 7:40 | μακαριωτερα δε εστιν εαν ουτως μεινη κατα την εμην γνωμην δοκω δε καγω πνευμα θεου εχειν |
