3 Let the husband render to his wife what is her due, and likewise also the wife to her husband.
4 The wife does not have authority over her own body, but the husband does. And likewise the husband does not have authority over his own body, but the wife does.
5 Do not deprive one another except with agreement for a time, to give yourselves to fasting and prayer. And come together again so that Satan does not try you because of your lack of self-control.
6 And I say this as a concession, not as a command.
7 For I wish that all men were even as I myself. But each one has his own gift from Elohim, one in this way and another in that.
8 And I say to the unmarried and to the widows: It is good for them if they remain even as I am,
9 but if they do not have self-control, let them marry, for it is better to marry than to burn.
