5 Do not defraud one another, except it be with mutual consent for a time, that ye may give yourselves to fasting and prayer and come together again, that Satan not tempt you for your incontinency.
6 But I speak this by permission, and not by commandment.
7 For I would that all men were even as I myself. But each one has his own gift from God, one after this manner and another after that.
8 I say, therefore, to the unmarried men and widowers, It is good for them if they abide even as I.
9 But if they do not have the gift of continence, let them marry, for it is better to marry than to burn.
10 And unto the married I command, yet not I, but the Lord, Let not the wife separate from her husband;
11 and if she separates, let her remain unmarried or be reconciled to her husband, and let not the husband put away his wife.
