2But because of the desires of the flesh, let every man have his wife, and every woman her husband.
3Let the husband give to the wife what is right; and let the wife do the same to the husband.
4The wife has not power over her body, but the husband; and in the same way the husband has not power over his body, but the wife.
5Do not keep back from one another what is right, but only for a short time, and by agreement, so that you may give yourselves to prayer, and come together again; so that Satan may not get the better of you through your loss of self-control.
6But this I say as my opinion, and not as an order of the Lord.
7It is my desire that all men might be even as I am. But every man has the power of his special way of life given him by God, one in this way and one in that.
8But I say to the unmarried and to the widows, It is good for them to be even as I am.
