1. Korinterbrev 7,2

MarriagePurityFaithfulness and loyalty

1 Når det gjelder det dere skrev om: det er prisverdig for en mann å avstå fra intime relasjoner med en kvinne.

Men på grunn av seksuell umoral skal hver mann ha sin egen kone, og hver kvinne skal ha sin egen mann.

3 Mannen skal oppfylle sine forpliktelser overfor sin kone, og likeledes kona overfor sin mann.

4 Kona har ikke ene myndighet over sin egen kropp, men mannen deler den; og likeledes har ikke mannen ene myndighet over sin egen kropp, men kona deler den.
