Marriage, Abstinence, and Mutual Duty

1 Corinthians 7:1-7

Now concerning the things whereof you wrote to me: It is good for a man not to touch a woman.

But for fear of fornication, let every man have his own wife: and let every woman have her own husband.

Let the husband render the debt to his wife: and the wife also in like manner to the husband.

The wife hath not power of her own body: but the husband. And in like manner the husband also hath not power of his own body: but the wife.

Defraud not one another, except, perhaps, by consent, for a time, that you may give yourselves to prayer: and return together again, lest Satan tempt you for your incontinency.

But I speak this by indulgence, not by commandment.

For I would that all men were even as myself. But every one hath his proper gift from God: one after this manner, and another after that.
