8 I say to the unmarried and widows that it is good for them if they live even as I am.
9 But if they cannot restrain themselves, let them marry. For it is better to marry than to burn with passion.
10 Now to the married I command, not I, but the Lord, do not let the wife depart from her husband.
11 But if she departs, let her remain unmarried or be reconciled to her husband. And do not let the husband divorce his wife.
12 To the rest I speak, not the Lord: If any brother has an unbelieving wife who consents to live with him, he should not divorce her.
13 And if the woman has an unbelieving husband who consents to live with her, she should not divorce him.
14 For the unbelieving husband is sanctified by the wife, and the unbelieving wife is sanctified by the husband. Otherwise, your children would be unclean. But now they are holy.
