4 Each of you men should know how to live with his wife in a holy and honourable way,
5 not with a lustful desire, like the heathen who do not know God.
6 In this matter, then, no man should do wrong to his fellow-Christian or take advantage of him. We have told you this before, and we strongly warned you that the Lord will punish those who do that.
7 God did not call us to live in immorality, but in holiness.
8 So then, whoever rejects this teaching is not rejecting a human being, but God, who gives you his Holy Spirit.
9 There is no need to write to you about love for your fellow-believers. You yourselves have been taught by God how you should love one another.
10 And you have, in fact, behaved like this towards all the brothers and sisters in all Macedonia. So we beg you, our brothers and sisters, to do even more.
