9But if they have not continency, let them marry: for it is better to marry than to burn.

10But unto the married I give charge, [yea] not I, but the Lord, That the wife depart not from her husband

11(but should she depart, let her remain unmarried, or else be reconciled to her husband); and that the husband leave not his wife.

12But to the rest say I, not the Lord: If any brother hath an unbelieving wife, and she is content to dwell with him, let him not leave her.

13And the woman that hath an unbelieving husband, and he is content to dwell with her, let her not leave her husband.

14For the unbelieving husband is sanctified in the wife, and the unbelieving wife is sanctified in the brother: else were your children unclean; but now are they holy.

15Yet if the unbelieving departeth, let him depart: the brother or the sister is not under bondage in such [cases]: but God hath called us in peace.
