1 Corinthians 7 in the KJV and JST

  

KJV

1867 Inspired Version (RLDS)

[1] Now concerning the things whereof ye wrote unto me: It is good for a man not to touch a woman.

[2] Nevertheless, to avoid fornication, let every man have his own wife, and let every woman have her own husband.

 

[5] Defraud ye not one the other, except it be with consent for a time, that ye may give yourselves to fasting and prayer; and come together again, that Satan tempt you not for your incontinency.

[6] But I speak this by permission, and not of commandment.

 

[9] But if they cannot contain, let them marry: for it is better to marry than to burn.

 

 

[11] But and if she depart, let her remain unmarried, or be reconciled to her husband: and let not the husband put away his wife.

 

[26] I suppose therefore that this is good for the present distress, I say, that it is good for a man so to be.

[27] Art thou bound unto a wife?  seek not to be loosed.  Art thou loosed from a wife?  seek not a wife.

[28] But and if thou marry, thou hast not sinned; and if a virgin marry, she hath not sinned.  Nevertheless such shall have trouble in the flesh: but I spare you.

[29] But this I say, brethren, the time is short: it remaineth, that both they that have wives be as though they had none;

 

 

 

 

[30] And they that weep, as though they wept not; and they that rejoice, as though they rejoiced not; and they that buy, as though they possessed not;

[31] And they that use this world, as not abusing it: for the fashion of this world passeth away.

[32] But I would have you without carefulness.  He that is unmarried careth for the things that belong to the Lord, how he may please the Lord:

[33] But he that is married careth for the things that are of the world, how he may please his wife.

 

 

 

[36] But if any man think that he behaveth himself uncomely toward his virgin, if she pass the flower of her age, and need so require, let him do what he will, he sinneth not: let them marry.

 

 

[38] So then he that giveth her in marriage doeth well; but he that giveth her not in marriage doeth better.

[1] Now concerning the things whereof ye wrote unto me, saying, It is good for a man not to touch a woman.

[2] Nevertheless, I say, to avoid fornication, let every man have his own wife, and let every woman have her own husband.

 

[5] Depart ye not one from the other, except it be with consent for a time, that ye may give yourselves to fasting and prayer; and come together again, that Satan tempt you not for your incontinency.

[6] And now what I speak is by permission, and not by commandment.

 

[9] But if they cannot abide, let them marry; for it is better to marry than that any should commit sin.

 

[11] But and if she depart, let her remain unmarried, or be reconciled to her husband; but let not the husband put away his wife.

 

[26] I suppose therefore that this is good for the present distress, for a man so to remain that he may do greater good.

[27] Art thou bound unto a wife? seek not to be loosed.  Art thou loosed from a wife? seek not a wife.

[28] But if thou marry, thou hast not sinned; and if a virgin marry, she hath not sinned.  Nevertheless, such shall have trouble in the flesh.  For I spare you not.

[29] But I speak unto you who are called unto the ministry.  For this I say, brethren, the time that remaineth is but short, that ye shall be sent forth unto the ministry.  Even they who have wives, shall be as though they had none; for ye are called and chosen to do the Lord’s work.

[30] And it shall be well with them who weep, as though they wept not; and them who rejoice, as though they rejoiced not, and them who buy, as though they possessed not;

[31] And them who use this world, as not using it; for the fashion of this world passeth away.

[32] But I would, brethren, that ye magnify your calling.  I would have you without carefulness.  For he who is unmarried, careth for the things that belong to the Lord, how he may please the Lord; therefore he prevaileth.

[33] But he who is married, careth for the things that are of the world, how he may please his wife; therefore there is a difference, for he is hindered.

 

[36] But if any man think that he behaveth himself uncomely toward his virgin whom he hath espoused, if she pass the flower of age, and need so require, let him do what he hath promised, he sinneth not; let them marry.

 

 

[38] So then he that giveth himself in marriage doeth well: but he that giveth himself not in marriage doeth better.
