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.
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.
9 But if they cannot control themselves, let them marry. It is better to marry than to be inflamed with lust.
18 Let your fountain be blessed. Rejoice with the wife of your youth.
19 She is like a loving deer and a graceful doe. Let her breasts satisfy you at all times. Always be delighted with her love.
15 Do you not know that your bodies are the members of Christ? Shall I then take the members of Christ, and unite them with turn them into the members of a prostitute? God forbid!
16 What? Do you not know that he who is joined to a prostitute is one united with her body? For he said: »Two will be one flesh.«
17 He who is joined to the Lord is one united with him in spirit.
4 Let marriage be honorable among all, and let the marriage bed be undefiled: for God will judge fornicators and adulterers.
28 »However, I tell you that whoever looks at a woman with lustful thoughts commits adultery with her in his heart.
14 »Do not commit adultery.
3 This is the will of God, for your sanctification holinesspurification, that you should abstain from fornication.
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.
4 He answered: »Have you not read, that he who made them from the beginning made them male and female?
5 »For this reason, a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife. The two shall become one flesh.
6 »So they are no longer two, but one flesh. What God has joined together, let no man pull apart separate!«
3 Fornication, and all uncleanness, or covetousness, must not even be mentioned among you, as is proper among holy ones.
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.
13 Let us walk honestly as in the daytime, not in rioting and drunkenness, not in sexual immorality and loose conduct, not in strife and jealousy.
15 »Did God make you one? Your flesh and spirit belong to him. What does God look for but godly descendants? Do not be unfaithful to the wife of your youth.
6 »Do not have sex with any of your close relatives,
7 especially your own mother. This would disgrace your father.
8 »Do not disgrace him by having sex with any of his other wives.
9 »Never have sexual intercourse with your stepsister, whether she is your father's daughter or your mother's daughter. It makes no difference whether or not she was born in your house.
10 »Do not have sexual intercourse with your granddaughter, whether she is your son's daughter or your daughter's daughter, because she is related to you.
11 »Never have sexual intercourse with a daughter of your father and his wife. She is your own sister.
12 »Do not have sexual intercourse with your father's sister. She is your paternal aunt.
13 »Do not have sexual intercourse with your mother's sister. She is your maternal aunt.
14 »Never have sexual intercourse with the wife of your father's brother. She, too, is your aunt.
15 »Never have sexual intercourse with your daughter-in-law. She is your son's wife. Never have sexual intercourse with her.
16 »Do not have sexual intercourse with your sister-in-law. She is your brother's wife.
17 »Do not have sexual intercourse with a woman and her daughter or a woman and her granddaughter. They are related. Doing this is perverted.
18 »While your wife is living, never marry her sister as a rival wife and have sexual intercourse with her.
19 »Never have sexual intercourse with a woman while she is unclean during her monthly period.
20 »Do not have sexual intercourse with your neighbor's wife and become unclean with her.
21 »Never give your children as sacrifices to the god Molech by burning them alive. If you do, you are dishonoring the name of your God. I am Jehovah!
22 »Do not have sexual intercourse with a man as with a woman. It is disgusting.
23 »Do not have sexual intercourse with any animal and become unclean with it. A woman must never offer herself to an animal for sexual intercourse. It is unnatural.
27 God created man in his own image. In the image of God he created him. He created male and female.
28 God blessed them and said to them: »Be fruitful and increase in number. Fill the earth and subdue it. Rule over the fish of the sea and dominate the birds of the air. Have dominion over every living creature that moves on the ground.«
24 This is the reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife. They will become one flesh.
22 Claiming to be wise, they became fools.
23 They changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and four-footed beasts, and creeping things.
24 God gave them up to uncleanness because of the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonor their own bodies between themselves.
25 They changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshiped and served the creation more than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen.
26 For this cause God gave them up to vile affections for even their women changed the natural use into that which is against nature.
27 Also the men left the natural use of the woman and burned in their lust, one toward another; men with men working that which is obscene. They receive full recompense due for their error.
