Marriage, Abstinence, and Mutual Duty

1 Corinthians 7:1-7
1
Nowe concerning the thinges whereof ye wrote vnto mee, It were good for a man not to touche a woman.
2
Neuertheles, to auoide fornication, let euery man haue his wife, and let euery woman haue her owne husband.
3
Let the husband giue vnto the wife due beneuolence, and likewise also the wife vnto the husband.
4
The wife hath not the power of her owne bodie, but ye husband: and likewise also the husband hath not ye power of his own body, but the wife.
5
Defraude not one another, except it be with consent for a time, that ye may giue your selues to fasting and praier, and againe come together that Satan tempt you not for your incontinecie.
6
But I speake this by permission, not by commandement.
7
For I woulde that all men were euen as I my selfe am: but euery man hath his proper gift of God, one after this maner, and another after that.
