Genesis 19:1-16
- 1
- And there came two angels to Sodom at even; and Lot sat in the gate of Sodom: and Lot seeing them rose up to meet them; and he bowed himself with his face toward the ground;
- 2
- And he said, Behold now, my lords, turn in, I pray you, into your servant's house, and tarry all night, and wash your feet, and ye shall rise up early, and go on your ways. And they said, Nay; but we will abide in the street all night.
- 3
- And he pressed upon them greatly; and they turned in unto him, and entered into his house; and he made them a feast, and did bake unleavened bread, and they did eat.
- 4
- But before they lay down, the men of the city, even the men of Sodom, compassed the house round, both old and young, all the people from every quarter:
- 5
- And they called unto Lot, and said unto him, Where are the men which came in to thee this night? bring them out unto us, that we may know them.
- 6
- And Lot went out at the door unto them, and shut the door after him,
- 7
- And said, I pray you, brethren, do not so wickedly.
- 8
- Behold now, I have two daughters which have not known man; let me, I pray you, bring them out unto you, and do ye to them as is good in your eyes: only unto these men do nothing; for therefore came they under the shadow of my roof.
- 9
- And they said, Stand back. And they said again, This one fellow came in to sojourn, and he will needs be a judge: now will we deal worse with thee, than with them. And they pressed sore upon the man, even Lot, and came near to break the door.
- 10
- But the men put forth their hand, and pulled Lot into the house to them, and shut to the door.
- 11
- And they smote the men that were at the door of the house with blindness, both small and great: so that they wearied themselves to find the door.
- 12
- And the men said unto Lot, Hast thou here any besides? son in law, and thy sons, and thy daughters, and whatsoever thou hast in the city, bring them out of this place:
- 13
- For we will destroy this place, because the cry of them is waxen great before the face of the LORD; and the LORD hath sent us to destroy it.
- 14
- And Lot went out, and spake unto his sons in law, which married his daughters, and said, Up, get you out of this place; for the LORD will destroy this city. But he seemed as one that mocked unto his sons in law.
- 15
- And when the morning arose, then the angels hastened Lot, saying, Arise, take thy wife, and thy two daughters, which are here; lest thou be consumed in the iniquity of the city.
- 16
- And while he lingered, the men laid hold upon his hand, and upon the hand of his wife, and upon the hand of his two daughters; the LORD being merciful unto him: and they brought him forth, and set him without the city.

- 1
- Now concerning the things whereof ye wrote unto me: It is good for a man not to touch a woman.
- 2
- Nevertheless, to avoid fornication, let every man have his own wife, and let every woman have her own husband.
- 3
- Let the husband render unto the wife due benevolence: and likewise also the wife unto the husband.
- 4
- The wife hath not power of her own body, but the husband: and likewise also the husband hath not power of his own body, but the wife.
- 5
- Defraud ye not one the other, except it be with consent for a time, that ye may give yourselves to fasting and prayer; and come together again, that Satan tempt you not for your incontinency.
- 6
- But I speak this by permission, and not of commandment.
- 7
- For I would that all men were even as I myself. But every man hath his proper gift of God, one after this manner, and another after that.
- 8
- I say therefore to the unmarried and widows, it is good for them if they abide even as I.
- 9
- But if they cannot contain, 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 depart from her husband:
- 11
- But and if she depart, let her remain unmarried or be reconciled to her husband: and let not the husband put away his wife.
- 12
- But to the rest speak I, not the Lord: If any brother hath a wife that believeth not, and she be pleased to dwell with him, let him not put her away.
- 13
- And the woman which hath an husband that believeth not, and if he be pleased to dwell with her, let her not leave him.
- 14
- For the unbelieving husband is sanctified by the wife, and the unbelieving wife is sanctified by the husband: else were your children unclean; but now are they holy.
- 15
- But if the unbelieving depart, let him depart. A brother or a sister is not under bondage in such cases: but God hath called us to peace.
- 16
- For what knowest thou, O wife, whether thou shalt save thy husband? or how knowest thou, O man, whether thou shalt save thy wife?
- 17

- 20
- Let every man abide in the same calling wherein he was called.
- 21
- Art thou called being a servant? care not for it: but if thou mayest be made free, use it rather.
- 22
- For he that is called in the Lord, being a servant, is the Lord's freeman: likewise also he that is called, being free, is Christ's servant.
- 23
- Ye are bought with a price; be not ye the servants of men.
- 24
- Brethren, let every man, wherein he is called, therein abide with God.
- 25
- Now concerning virgins I have no commandment of the Lord: yet I give my judgment, as one that hath obtained mercy of the Lord to be faithful.
- 26
- I suppose therefore that this is good for the present distress, I say, that it is good for a man so to be.
- 27
- Art thou bound unto a wife? seek not to be loosed. Art thou loosed from a wife? seek not a wife.
- 28
- But and if thou marry, thou hast not sinned; and if a virgin marry, she hath not sinned. Nevertheless such shall have trouble in the flesh: but I spare you.
- 29
- But this I say, brethren, the time is short: it remaineth, that both they that have wives be as though they had none;
- 30
- And they that weep, as though they wept not; and they that rejoice, as though they rejoiced not; and they that buy, as though they possessed not;
- 31
- And they that use this world, as not abusing it: for the fashion of this world passeth away.
- 32
- But I would have you without carefulness. He that is unmarried careth for the things that belong to the Lord, how he may please the Lord:
- 33
- But he that is married careth for the things that are of the world, how he may please his wife.
- 34
- There is difference also between a wife and a virgin. The unmarried woman careth for the things of the Lord, that she may be holy both in body and in spirit: but she that is married careth for the things of the world, how she may please her husband.
- 35
- And this I speak for your own profit; not that I may cast a snare upon you, but for that which is comely, and that ye may attend upon the Lord without distraction.
- 36
- But if any man think that he behaveth himself uncomely toward his virgin, if she pass the flower of her age, and need so require, let him do what he will, he sinneth not: let them marry.
- 37
- Nevertheless he that standeth stedfast in his heart, having no necessity, but hath power over his own will, and hath so decreed in his heart that he will keep his virgin, doeth well.
- 38
- So then he that giveth her in marriage doeth well; but he that giveth her not in marriage doeth better.
- 39
- The wife is bound by the law as long as her husband liveth; but if her husband be dead, she is at liberty to be married to whom she will; only in the Lord.
- 40
- But she is happier if she so abide, after my judgment: and I think also that I have the Spirit of God.
