    8 I saye vnto the vnmaried men and widdowes: it is good for them yf they abyde eve as I do.

    9 But and yf they canot abstayne let them mary. For it is better to mary then to burne.

    10 Vnto the maryed comaunde not I but the Lorde: that the wyfe separate not her selfe from the man.

    11 Yf she separate her selfe let her remayne vnmaryed or be reconciled vnto her husbande agayne. And let not the husbande put awaye his wyfe from him.

    12 To the remnaunt speake I and not the LORde. Yf eny brother have a wyfe that beleveth not yf she be content to dwell with him let him not put her awaye.

    13 And ye woma which hath to her husbande an infidell yf he consent to dwell with her let her not put him awaye.

    14 For ye vnbelevynge husbande is sanctified by the wyfe: and the vnbelevynge wyfe is sanctified by the husbande. Or els were youre chyldren vnclene: but now are they pure.

    15 But and yf the vnbelevynge departe let him departe. A brother or a sister is not in subiection to soche. God hath called vs in peace.

    16 For how knowest thou o woman whether thou shalt save that man or no? Other how knowest thou o man whether thou shalt save that woman or no?

    32 I wolde have you without care: the single man careth for the thinges of the LORde how he maye please the LORde.

    33 But he that hath maried careth for the thinges of the worlde howe he maye please his wyfe.

    34 There is differece bitwene a virgin and a wyfe. The single woman careth for the thinges of the LORde that she maye be pure both in body and also in sprete But she that is maryed careth for the thinges of the worlde how she maye please her husband.

    35 This speake I for youre proffit not to tangle you in a snare: but for that which is honest and comly vnto you and that ye maye quyetly cleave vnto the LORde wt out separacion.

    36 If eny man thinke that it is vncomly for his virgin if she passe the tyme of mariage ad if so nede requyre let him do what he listeth he synneth not: let the be coupled in mariage.

    37 Neverthelesse he yt purposeth surely in his herte havynge none nede: but hath power over his awne will: and hath so decreed in his herte that he will kepe his virgin doth well.

    38 So then he that ioyneth his virgin in maryage doth well. But he that ioyneth not his virgin in mariage doth better.
