But I speak this according to knowledge, not according to commandment.

But I wish that all men were even as myself; but each one has his own gift from God, some one, and some another.

But I speak to the unmarried and the widows, that it is good for them that they may remain even as I:

but if they do not contain, let them marry: for it is better to marry than to burn.

But I proclaim to those who have married, not I, but the Lord, That a wife shall not depart from her husband

(but if indeed she may depart, let her remain unmarried, or let her be reconciled unto her husband); and that the husband shall not send away the wife.

But I say to the rest, not the Lord, if any brother has an unbelieving wife, and she is willing to live with him, let him not send her away.

For the unbelieving husband has been sanctified by the wife, and the unbelieving wife has been sanctified by the brother. Since then your children are unclean; but now they are holy.

But if the unbeliever departs, let him or her depart; the brother or the sister has not been enslaved in such things. God has called you in peace.

Circumcision is nothing, and uncircumcision is nothing, but the keeping of the commandments of God.

Have you been called being a slave? let it not be a care to you: but if indeed you are able to become free, use it in preference.

But concerning virgins I have no commandment of the Lord: but I give knowledge, as one having obtained mercy from the Lord to be faithful.

But I consider this to be good on account of the present distress, that it is good for a man so to be.

But if, indeed you may marry, you have not sinned; and if a virgin may marry, she has not sinned; but such shall have trouble in the flesh, but I spare you.

But I say this, brethren; that the time is at hand, that moreover indeed those having wives may be as those not having;

but the one having married cares for the things of the world, in order that he may please his wife.

A wife and a virgin truly also differ: the unmarried woman cares for the things of the Lord, that she may be holy in body and in spirit: but she having married cares for the things of the world, that she may please her husband.

I speak this for the profit of you yourselves; not that I may cast a burden upon you, but for that which is pleasing and acceptable to the Lord without perturbation.

But if any one considers that he is acting indiscreetly towards his virgin, if she may be marriageable, and thus it ought so to be, let him do what he wishes; he does not sin; let them marry.

But whosoever stands firm in his heart, having no necessity, and has the right according to his own will, and has determined this in his heart, to keep his virgin, will do well.

A wife has been given so long a time as her husband may live; but if her husband may die, she is free to be married to whom she will; only in the Lord.

But she is happier if she may so remain, according to my opinion: but I realize that I truly have the Spirit of God.

But concerning things offered to idols: we know that we all have knowledge. Knowledge puffs up, but divine love builds up.

but if any one loves God he is known of him.

but there is to us one God, the Father, from whom are all things, and we in him; and one Lord, Jesus Christ, through whom are all things, and we in him.

But there is not knowledge in all people: but some, with the conscience of the idol even until now, eat as if it was sacrificed to the idol; and their conscience being weak is polluted.

But meat will not commend us to God; neither if we eat are we the better; nor if we eat not are we the worse.

If I am not an apostle to others, but I am to you at least: for you are the seal of my apostleship in the Lord.

If others partake of your bounty, shall not we the more? But we have not used this privilege, but we bear all things, in order that we may not give a hindrance to the gospel of Christ.

But I have used none of these things. But I have not written these things that it may be so in me: for it is good for me rather to die than that any one shall make void my boasting.

For if I do this willingly, I have a reward: but if unwillingly, I have been intrusted with a dispensation.

to those without law, I became as without law, not being without the law of God, but under the law of Christ, that I may gain those without law.

But I do all these things for the sake of the gospel, that I may be its fellow-partaker.

But every one contesting is abstinent in all things, they indeed also that they may receive a corruptible crown, but we an incorruptible.

but I keep my body under, and enslave it, lest having preached the gospel to others, I myself may become disapproved.

But with many of them God is not well pleased: for they were overthrown in the wilderness.

But these things happened unto them as examples; and were written for our admonition, on whom the ends of the ages have descended.

No temptation has overtaken you, except that which is human: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above what you are able, but with the temptation, He will also make a way of escape, in order that you may be able to bear it.

But those things which they sacrifice, they sacrifice to demons, and not to God. But I do not wish you to be the communicants of demons.

All things are lawful; but all things are not profitable. All things are lawful; but all things do not edify.

Let no one seek his own, but that of another.

But if any one may say to you; This is offered to an idol, eat not, on account of him who gave the information, and his conscience.

But I say the conscience not of himself, but of the other one. For why is my liberty judged by the conscience of another?

as I also please all in all things, seeking not my own profit, but that of the many, that they may be saved.

But I praise you because you remember me in all things, and hold fast the commandments, as I delivered them unto you.

But I wish you to know, that Christ is the head of every man; and the man is the head of the woman, and God is the head of Christ.

But every woman praying or prophesying with her head uncovered dishonors her head: for that is one and the same to her being shaven.

If a woman is not covered, let her also be shorn: but if it is a disgrace for a woman to be shorn or shaven; let her be covered.

For a man ought not to cover his head, being the image and glory of God; but the woman is the glory of the man.

For the man is not from the woman; but the woman is from the man;

for man indeed was not created on account of the woman; but the woman on account of the man.

But if a woman has long hair, it is a glory unto her: because the hair has been given to her for a covering.

And proclaiming this, I do not praise you, because you come together not for the better but for the worse.

But let a man examine himself, and so let him eat of the bread and drink of the cup;

But if we judged ourselves, we would not be judged:

But being judged, by the Lord we are chastised, in order that we may not be condemned along with the world.

If one is hungry let him eat at home; in order that you may not come together unto condemnation. But I will set in order the remaining things when I may come.

it does not rejoice in unrighteousness, but it rejoices in the truth;

Divine love never falls: but whether there are prophecies, they shall be done away; whether there are tongues, they shall cease; whether there is knowledge, it shall vanish away.

but when the perfect may come, that which is in part shall be done away.

For we now see through a mirror in an enigma; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know perfectly even as I am perfectly known.

But now abide faith, hope, divine love, these three; but the greatest of these is divine love.

Follow after divine love; and seek the spiritual gifts, but rather that you may prophesy.

For the one speaking with a tongue speaks not to men, but to God; for no one hears him; but he speaks mysteries in the spirit:

but the one prophesying speaks to men edification, exhortation, and comfort.

The one speaking with a tongue edifies himself; but the one prophesying edifies the church.

But I wish you all to speak with tongues, but rather that you may prophesy: but greater is the one prophesying, than the one speaking with tongues, unless he may interpret, in order that the church may receive edification.

But now, brethren, if I may come unto you speaking with tongues, what shall I profit you, unless I shall speak to you either in revelation, or knowledge, or prophecy, or in instruction?

For if I pray with a tongue, my spirit is praying, but my mind is not fruitful.

For you indeed bless beautifully, but the other is not edified.

but I would rather speak five words in the church with my understanding, so that I may indeed teach others, than ten thousand words in a tongue.

Brethren, be not children in intellect: but be infants in evil, but be perfect in intellect.

So tongues are for a sign, not to those who believe, but to the unbelievers: and prophecy is not for the unbelievers, but for the believers.

But if all may prophesy, and some unbeliever or unlearned person may come in, he is convicted by all, he is discerned by all;

but if there may be no interpreter, let him keep silent in the church; but let him speak to himself, and to God.

But let two or three prophets speak, and let the others give audience;

but if something may be revealed to another sitting down, let the first be silent.

for he is not a God of confusion, but of peace. So in all the churches of the saints,

let the women be silent in the churches: for it is not permitted to them to talk; but let them be subordinate, as the law also says.

But if they wish to learn something, let them ask their own husbands at home: for it is disgraceful for a woman to talk in church.

but if any one ignores, he is ignored.

but let all things be done decently and in order.

But I make known to you, brethren, the gospel which I preached unto you, which you indeed received, in which you also stand,

Then he was seen by more than five hundred brethren at once, of whom the more remain unto this day, but some have fallen asleep.

But last of all he was seen by me, as one born out of due time.

But by the grace of God I am what I am: and his grace was not vain toward me; but I have labored more abundantly than they all: and not I, but the grace of God with me.

But if Christ is preached that he is risen from the dead, how do certain ones among you say that there is no resurrection of the dead?

but if there is no resurrection of the dead, Christ is not risen:

but if Christ is not risen, then indeed is our preaching vain, and your faith is vain.

But if the dead rise not, neither is Christ risen.

But if Christ is not risen, your faith is vain; you are yet in your sins.

But now Christ is risen from the dead, the firstfruit of them that slept.

But each one in his own rank: Christ the first-fruit; then they who are Christ's, at His coming:

For, he has subordinated all things beneath his feet. But when he may say, that all things have been subordinated, it is evident that the One having subordinated all things to him is excepted.

But when he may subordinate all things to him, then the Son himself will also be subordinated to him who hath subordinated all things to Himself, in order that God may be all things in all.

But one will say, How are the dead raised? and with what body do they come?

and that which thou sowest, thou sowest not the body that shall be, but naked grain, if it may happen to be of wheat, or of some one of the other grains;

but God gives it a body as he wished; and to each of the seeds its own body.

All flesh is not the same flesh: but there is indeed a flesh of men, and another flesh of beasts, and another flesh of birds, and another of fishes.

Indeed there are heavenly bodies, and there are earthly bodies: but indeed there is one glory of the heavenlies, and another glory of those upon the earth.
