3 For this is God's will–your purity of life, that you abstain from fornication;

4 that each man among you shall know how to procure a wife who shall be his own in purity and honour;

5 that you be not overmastered by lustful cravings, like the Gentiles who have no knowledge of God;

6 and that in this matter there be no encroaching on the rights of a brother Christian and no overreaching him. For the Lord is an avenger in all such cases, as we have already taught you and solemnly warned you.

7 God has not called us to an unclean life, but to one of purity.
