New Testament

1 Corinthians 7:3-6 The Scriptures 1998 (ISR98)

3. Let the husband render to his wife what is her due, and likewise also the wife to her husband.

4. The wife does not have authority over her own body, but the husband does. And likewise the husband does not have authority over his own body, but the wife does.

5. Do not deprive one another except with agreement for a time, to give yourselves to fasting and prayer. And come together again so that Satan does not try you because of your lack of self-control.

6. And I say this as a concession, not as a command.
