1 Corinthians 7:2-9 Nevertheless, to avoid lewdness, let every man have his own wife, and let every woman have her own husband.

Webster⁽ⁱ⁾ ² Nevertheless, to avoid lewdness, let every man have his own wife, and let every woman have her own husband. ³ Let the husband render to the wife due benevolence: and likewise also the wife to the husband. 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. ⁵ Defraud ye not one the other, except with consent for a time, that ye may give yourselves to fasting and prayer; and come together again, that Satan may not tempt you for your incontinence. ⁶ But I speak this by permission, and not as a commandment. ⁷ For I would that all men were as I myself. But every man hath his proper gift from God, one after this manner, and another after that. ⁸ I say therefore to the unmarried and widows, It is good for them if they remain even as I. ⁹ But if they cannot contain, let them marry: for it is better to marry than to burn.
