As far as the present hour we both hunger, and thirst, and are ill clothed, and are treated roughly, and are homeless.

But because of fornications, let each man have his own wife, and let each woman have her own husband.

The wife has not the right of her private body, but the husband, and likewise also the husband has not the right of his private body, but the wife.

And to those who are married, I do not command but the Lord. The wife is not to separate from her husband.

But even if she separates, she shall remain unmarried, or be reconciled to her husband. And a husband is not to leave his wife.

But to the rest I say, not the Lord. If any brother has an unbelieving wife, and this woman consents to dwell with him, he should not leave her.

And whichever woman has an unbelieving husband, and he consents to dwell with her, she should not leave him.

A wife is bound by law as long a time as her husband lives, but also if the husband should sleep, she is free to be married to whom she desires, only in Lord.

But every woman praying or prophesying with her head uncovered dishonors her head, for it is one and the same thing as the woman who has been shaven.

For if a woman is not covered, let her also shear herself. But if it is an ugly thing for a woman to shear herself or be shaven, she should be covered.

Because of this the woman ought to have authority over her head, because of the heavenly agents.

Or does not nature itself teach you that if a man actually wears long hair it is a disgrace to him?

But if a woman wears long hair, it is a glory to her, because her hair has been given for a cloak.

For indeed first, when ye come together in a congregation, I hear divisions are present among you, and I partly believe it.

In the law it is written, In other tongues and in other lips I will speak to this people, and not even so will they hear me, says Lord.

And we, why are we in peril every hour?
