8 I say, therefore, to the unmarried [men] and widowers, It is good for them if they abide even as I.

9 But if they do not have [the gift of] continence, let them marry, for it is better to marry than to burn.

10 And unto the married I command, [yet] not I, but the Lord, Let not the wife separate from [her] husband;

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