28 In this way husbands should love their wives as their own bodies. He that loves his own wife loves himself.
29 No man ever hated his own flesh; but nourishes and cherishes it, even as Christ also does the congregation.
30 And we are members of his body!
26 My flesh and my heart fail: God is the strength of my heart, and my portion forever.
10 Therefore remove sorrow from your heart, and put away evil from your flesh, for childhood and youth are vanity.
25 The man and his wife were both naked, and they felt no shame.
4 Every one of you should know how to possess his own vessel in holiness and honor,
5 not in the lust of sexual desire like the nations who do not know God.
12 By these, my son, be admonished! There is no end to publishing many books. Also much study is a weariness of the flesh.
2 Nevertheless, to avoid fornication, let every man have his own wife, and let every woman have her own husband.
3 Let the husband fulfill his marital duties to his wife and also the wife to her husband.
4 The wife has no authority over her own body, but her husband does. Likewise also the husband has no authority over his own body, but his wife does.
7 Jehovah God formed the man from the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life. The man became a living being.
5 You do not know what is the way of the wind, nor how the bones grow in the womb of a pregnant woman. Even so you do not know the works of God who creates all.
21 Jehovah God caused the man to fall into a deep sleep. While he was sleeping, he took one of the mans ribs and closed up the place with flesh.
22 Then Jehovah made a woman from the rib he had taken out of the man. He brought her to the man.
23 The man said: »This is now bone of my bones and flesh of my flesh. She shall be called Woman. This is because she was taken out of Man.«
1 »You are the sons of Jehovah your God. Do not cut yourselves nor shave your forehead for the sake of the dead.
2 »You are a holy people to Jehovah your God. Out of all the people on the face of the earth Jehovah has chosen you to be a people for His own possession.
13 Foods are for the belly, and the belly for foods, but God will destroy both of them. Now the body is not for fornication but for the Lord, and the Lord is for the body.
29 »If your right eye causes you to sin, take it out and throw it away! It is better to lose a part of your body then to have your whole body destroyed in the ever-burning fires of the Valley of Hinnom.
30 »If your right hand causes you to sin, cut it off and throw it away. It is better to lose part of your body, than for your whole body to be destroyed in the ever-burning fire. Figuratively: lose prospect for everlasting life; ever-burning fire means total destruction.
18 Flee from fornication! Every sin that a man does is outside his body. But he who commits sexual immorality sins against his own body.
14 For the body is not one member, but many.
15 If the foot should say: »Because I am not the hand, I am not of the body;« is it therefore not of the body?
16 If the ear should say: »Because I am not the eye, I am not of the body;« is it therefore not of the body?
17 If the whole body were an eye, where is the hearing? If the whole were hearing, where is the smelling?
18 Has God set the members of the body, every one of them, just as it pleased him?
19 And if they were all one member, where would the body be?
20 But now they are many members, yet they are one body.
25 »I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink. And do not worry about your body, what you will wear. Is life worth more than food? And is the body worth more than clothes?
19 What? Do you not know that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit? That one Greek: »hos he ho« which, that one is in you. You received it from God. You are not your own.
20 You are bought with a price! Therefore glorify God in your body.
14 I will praise you, for in an awesome way I am wonderfully made. Your works are wonderful and I know this very well.
