1 Now as to the question you writ to me about; "whether it is best for a man not to marry?" 2 I answer, with regard to the licentious, it is best for a man, to have his wife; and for a woman to have her husband. 3 let the husband discharge his obligations to his wife: and likewise the wife to the husband. 4 the wife has not the right of her own person, but the husband: and so likewise the husband has not the right of his own person, but the wife. 1 Corinthians 7:1-4, Mace New Testament.
