Let the husband render to the wife due benevolence; and in like manner also the wife to the husband.

The wife hath not power of her own body, but the husband; and in like manner also the husband hath not power of his own body, but the wife.

(but if she separate, let her remain unmarried, or be reconciled to her husband;) and that the husband put not away his wife.

For the unbelieving husband is sanctified in the wife, and the unbelieving wife is sanctified in the husband: else were your children unclean; but they are holy.

But God hath called us to peace; for how knowest thou, O wife, but thou shalt save thy husband; or how knowest thou, O husband, but thou shalt save thy wife?

The wife is bound by the law as long as her husband liveth: but if her husband be dead, she is at liberty to be married to whom she will, only in the Lord:

Nevertheless to prevent whoredoms, let every one have his own wife, and let every woman have her own husband.

But those that are married, not I command, but the Lord, that the wife be not separated from her husband;

And if any wife hath an unbelieving husband, and he like to dwell with her, let her not leave him.

There is a difference also between a wife and a virgin: she, that is unmarried, careth for the things of the Lord, that she may be holy both in body and spirit; but she, that is married, is in care about the things of the world, and how she may please her husband.
