1 Corinthians 7:3-7

English Standard Version

^3 (A)The husband should give to his wife her conjugal rights, and likewise the wife to her husband. ⁴ For the wife does not have authority over her own body, but the husband does. Likewise the husband does not have authority over his own body, but the wife does. ^5 (B)Do not deprive one another, except perhaps by agreement for a limited time, that you may devote yourselves to prayer; but then come together again, ^(C)so that Satan may not tempt you because of your lack of self-control.

⁶ Now as a concession, ^(D)not a command, I say this.^{[a] 7 (E)}I wish that all were ^(F)as I myself am. But ^(G)each has his own gift from God, ^(H)one of one kind and one of another.
