Chapter
Four – Scriptures
24Therefore
shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife:
and they shall be one flesh.
7Likewise,
ye husbands, dwell with them according to knowledge, giving honour unto the
wife, as unto the weaker vessel, and as being heirs together of the grace of
life; that your prayers be not hindered.
5And
every plant of the field before it was in the earth, and every herb of the
field before it grew: for the LORD God had not caused it to rain upon the
earth, and there was not a man to till the ground.
1Now
concerning the things whereof ye wrote unto me: It is good for a man not to
touch a woman.
2Nevertheless,
to avoid fornication, let every man have his own wife, and let every woman have
her own husband.
3Let
the husband render unto the wife due benevolence: and likewise also the wife
unto the husband.
4The
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.
5Defraud
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.
4Marriage
is honourable in all, and the bed undefiled: but whoremongers and adulterers
God will judge.
1I made
a covenant with mine eyes; why then should I think upon a maid?
15Drink
waters out of thine own cistern, and running waters out of thine own well.
16Let
thy fountains be dispersed abroad, and rivers of waters in the streets.
17Let
them be only thine own, and not strangers' with thee.
18Let
thy fountain be blessed: and rejoice with the wife of thy youth.
19Let
her be as the loving hind and pleasant roe; let her breasts satisfy thee at all
times; and be thou ravished always with her love.
15And
did not he make one? Yet had he the residue of the spirit. And wherefore one?
That he might seek a godly seed. Therefore take heed to your spirit, and let
none deal treacherously against the wife of his youth.
16His
mouth is most sweet: yea, he is altogether lovely. This is my beloved, and this
is my friend, O daughters of Jerusalem.
23And
the scripture was fulfilled which saith, Abraham believed God, and it was
imputed unto him for righteousness: and he was called the Friend of God.
27So
God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and
female created he them.
28There
is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male
nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus.
25Husbands,
love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it;
1I made
a covenant with mine eyes; why then should I think upon a maid?
27Ye
have heard that it was said by them of old time, Thou shalt not commit
adultery:
28But I
say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath
committed adultery with her already in his heart.
14Yet
ye say, Wherefore? Because the LORD hath been witness between thee and the wife
of thy youth, against whom thou hast dealt treacherously: yet is she thy
companion, and the wife of thy covenant.
15And
did not he make one? Yet had he the residue of the spirit. And wherefore one?
That he might seek a godly seed. Therefore take heed to your spirit, and let
none deal treacherously against the wife of his youth.
3Let
the husband render unto the wife due benevolence: and likewise also the wife
unto the husband.
4The
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.
26Be ye
angry, and sin not: let not the sun go down upon your wrath:
24Therefore
shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife:
and they shall be one flesh.
25And
they were both naked, the man and his wife, and were not ashamed.
27So
God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and
female created he them.
28And
God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and
replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea,
and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the
earth.
15Drink
waters out of thine own cistern, and running waters out of thine own well.
16Let
thy fountains be dispersed abroad, and rivers of waters in the streets.
17Let
them be only thine own, and not strangers' with thee.
18Let
thy fountain be blessed: and rejoice with the wife of thy youth.
19Let
her be as the loving hind and pleasant roe; let her breasts satisfy thee at all
times; and be thou ravished always with her love.
2Nevertheless,
to avoid fornication, let every man have his own wife, and let every woman have
her own husband.
3Let
the husband render unto the wife due benevolence: and likewise also the wife
unto the husband.
4The
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.
5Defraud
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.
4Marriage
is honourable in all, and the bed undefiled: but whoremongers and adulterers
God will judge.
31And
God saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. And the
evening and the morning were the sixth day.
7And
the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his
nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.
8For
the man is not of the woman: but the woman of the man.
9Neither
was the man created for the woman; but the woman for the man.
23And
Adam said, This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh: she shall be
called Woman, because she was taken out of Man.
24Therefore
shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife:
and they shall be one flesh.
25And
they were both naked, the man and his wife, and were not ashamed.
1Now
the serpent was more subtil than any beast of the field which the LORD God had
made. And he said unto the woman, Yea, hath God said, Ye shall not eat of every
tree of the garden?
2And
the woman said unto the serpent, We may eat of the fruit of the trees of the
garden:
3But of
the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, God hath said, Ye
shall not eat of it, neither shall ye touch it, lest ye die.
4And
the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die:
5For
God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened,
and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil.
6And
when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was pleasant to
the eyes, and a tree to be desired to make one wise, she took of the fruit
thereof, and did eat, and gave also unto her husband with her; and he did eat.
7And
the eyes of them both were opened, and they knew that they were naked; and they
sewed fig leaves together, and made themselves aprons.
16Unto
the woman he said, I will greatly multiply thy sorrow and thy conception; in
sorrow thou shalt bring forth children; and thy desire shall be to thy husband,
and he shall rule over thee.
17And
unto Adam he said, Because thou hast hearkened unto the voice of thy wife, and
hast eaten of the tree, of which I commanded thee, saying, Thou shalt not eat
of it: cursed is the ground for thy sake; in sorrow shalt thou eat of it all
the days of thy life;
18Thorns
also and thistles shall it bring forth to thee; and thou shalt eat the herb of
the field;
19In
the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, till thou return unto the ground;
for out of it wast thou taken: for dust thou art, and unto dust shalt thou
return.
23Therefore
the LORD God sent him forth from the garden of Eden, to till the ground from
whence he was taken.
24So he
drove out the man; and he placed at the east of the garden of Eden Cherubims,
and a flaming sword which turned every way, to keep the way of the tree of
life.
27So
God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and
female created he them.
28And
God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and
replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea,
and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the
earth.
2Nevertheless,
to avoid fornication, let every man have his own wife, and let every woman have
her own husband.
3Let
the husband render unto the wife due benevolence: and likewise also the wife
unto the husband.
4The
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.
5Defraud
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.
4Marriage
is honourable in all, and the bed undefiled: but whoremongers and adulterers
God will judge.
8And it
came to pass, when he had been there a long time, that Abimelech king of the
Philistines looked out at a window, and saw, and, behold, Isaac was sporting
with Rebekah his wife.
9And
Abimelech called Isaac, and said, Behold, of a surety she is thy wife; and how
saidst thou, She is my sister? And Isaac said unto him, Because I said, Lest I
die for her.
