15 And, if the unbelieving one separates, let him separate himself. A brother or a sister has not been enslaved in such matters. But Elohim has called us to peace.
16 For how do you know, O wife, whether you shall save your husband? Or how do you know, O husband, whether you shall save your wife?
17 Only, as Elohim has distributed to each one, as the Master has called each one, so let him walk. And so I order in all the assemblies.
18 Was anyone called while circumcised? Let him not become uncircumcised. Was anyone called while uncircumcised? Let him not be circumcised.
19 The circumcision is naught, and the uncircumcision is naught, but the guarding of the commands of Elohim does matter!
20 Let each one remain in the same calling in which he was called.
21 Were you called while a slave? It matters not to you, but if you are able to become free too, rather use it.
