11. And if she depart, that she remain unmarried, or be reconciled to her husband. And let not the husband put away his wife.
12. For to the rest I speak, not the Lord. If any brother hath a wife that believeth not, and she consent to dwell with him, let him not put her away.
13. And if any woman hath a husband that believeth not, and he consent to dwell with her, let her not put away her husband.
14. For the unbelieving husband is sanctified by the believing wife; and the unbelieving wife is sanctified by the believing husband: otherwise your children should be unclean; but now they are holy.
15. But if the unbeliever depart, let him depart. For a brother or sister is not under servitude in such cases. But God hath called us in peace.
16. For how knowest thou, O wife, whether thou shalt save thy husband? Or how knowest thou, O man, whether thou shalt save thy wife?
17. But as the Lord hath distributed to every one, as God hath called every one, so let him walk: and so in all churches I teach.
18. Is any man called, being circumcised? let him not procure uncircumcision. Is any man called in uncircumcision? let him not be circumcised.
19. Circumcision is nothing, and uncircumcision is nothing: but the observance of the commandments of God.
20. Let every man abide in the same calling in which he was called.
21. Wast thou called, being a bondman? 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 bondman, is the freeman of the Lord. Likewise he that is called, being free, is the bondman of Christ.
23. You are bought with a price; be not made the bondslaves of men.
24. Brethren, let every man, wherein he was called, therein abide with God.
