(5)I speak to your shame. Is it so, that there is not a wise man among you, not even one that shall be able to judge between his brethren; (6)but brother goes to law with brother, and that before unbelievers? (7)Now therefore, it is altogether a fault among you, because ye go to law one with another. Why do ye not rather take wrong? Why do ye not rather suffer yourselves to be defrauded? (8)Nay, ye do wrong, and defraud, and that your brethren. (9)Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived; neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor the effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, (10)nor thieves, nor the covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God. (11)And such were some of you; but ye were washed, but ye were sanctified, but ye were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God. (12)All things are lawful for me, but not all things are expedient; all things are lawful for me, but I will not be brought under the power of anything. (13)Meats for the belly, and the belly for meats; but God will destroy both it and them. But the body is not for fornication, but for the Lord; and the Lord for the body. (14)And God both raised the Lord, and will also raise up us by his power. (15)Know ye not that your bodies are members of Christ? Shall I then take the members of Christ, and make them members of a harlot? Far be it! (16)Know ye not that he who is joined to a harlot is one body? For the two, says he, shall be one flesh. (17)But he that is joined to the Lord is one spirit. (18)Flee fornication. Every sin that a man commits is without the body; but he that commits fornication, sins against his own body. (19)Know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom ye have from God, and ye are not your own? (20)For ye are bought with a price; therefore glorify God in your body. VII. NOW concerning the things whereof ye wrote to me: It is good for a man not to touch a woman; (2)but because of fornication, let each man have his own wife, and let each woman have her own husband. (3)Let the husband render to the wife her due; and in like manner the wife also to the husband. (4)The wife has not power over her own body, but the husband; and in like manner the husband also has not power over his own body, but the wife. (5)Defraud not one the other, except it be with consent for a time, that ye may give yourselves to fasting and prayer, and come again together, that Satan may not tempt you on account of your incontinency. (6)But this I say by way of permission, not of command. (7)But I would that all men were as myself. But each one has his own gift from God, one after this manner, and another after that. (8)And I say to the unmarried and the widows, it is good for them if they remain as I also am. (9)But if they have not self-control, let them marry; for it is better to marry than to burn.
