7:1

Περὶ δὲ ὧν ἐγράψατε, καλὸν ἀνθρώπῳ γυναικὸς μὴ ἅπτεσθαι·

Now concerning the things about which you wrote to me: it is good for a man not to touch a woman.

論到你們信上所提的事，我說男不近女倒好。

7:2

διὰ δὲ τὰς πορνείας ἕκαστος τὴν ἑαυτοῦ γυναῖκα ἐχέτω, καὶ ἑκάστη τὸν ἴδιον ἄνδρα ἐχέτω.

But, because of sexual immoralities, let each man have his own wife, and let each woman have her own husband.

但要免淫亂的事，男子當各有自己的妻子；女子也當各有自己的丈夫。

7:3

τῇ γυναικὶ ὁ ἀνὴρ τὴν ὀφειλὴν ἀποδιδότω, ὁμοίως δὲ καὶ ἡ γυνὴ τῷ ἀνδρί.

Let the husband give his wife the affection owed her, and likewise also the wife her husband.

丈夫當用合宜之分待妻子；妻子待丈夫也要如此。

7:4

ἡ γυνὴ τοῦ ἰδίου σώματος οὐκ ἐξουσιάζει ἀλλὰ ὁ ἀνήρ· ὁμοίως δὲ καὶ ὁ ἀνὴρ τοῦ ἰδίου σώματος οὐκ ἐξουσιάζει ἀλλὰ ἡ γυνή.

The wife doesn’t have authority over her own body, but the husband does. Likewise also the husband doesn’t have authority over his own body, but the wife does.

妻子沒有權柄主張自己的身子，乃在丈夫；丈夫也沒有權柄主張自己的身子，乃在妻子。

7:5

μὴ ἀποστερεῖτε ἀλλήλους, εἰ μήτι ἂν ἐκ συμφώνου πρὸς καιρὸν ἵνα σχολάσητε τῇ προσευχῇ καὶ πάλιν ἐπὶ τὸ αὐτὸ ἦτε, ἵνα μὴ πειράζῃ ὑμᾶς ὁ σατανᾶς διὰ τὴν ἀκρασίαν ὑμῶν.

Don’t deprive one another, unless it is by consent for a season, that you may give yourselves to fasting and prayer, and may be together again, that Satan doesn’t tempt you because of your lack of self-control.

夫妻不可彼此虧負，除非兩相情願，暫時分房，為要專心禱告方可；以後仍要同房，免得撒但趁着你們情不自禁，引誘你們。

7:6

τοῦτο δὲ λέγω κατὰ συγγνώμην, οὐ κατ’ ἐπιταγήν.

But this I say by way of concession, not of commandment.

我說這話，原是准你們的，不是命你們的。

7:7

θέλω δὲ πάντας ἀνθρώπους εἶναι ὡς καὶ ἐμαυτόν· ἀλλὰ ἕκαστος ἴδιον ἔχει χάρισμα ἐκ θεοῦ, ὁ μὲν οὕτως, ὁ δὲ οὕτως.

Yet I wish that all men were like me. However, each man has his own gift from God, one of this kind, and another of that kind.

我願意眾人像我一樣；只是各人領受上帝的恩賜，一個是這樣，一個是那樣。

7:8

Λέγω δὲ τοῖς ἀγάμοις καὶ ταῖς χήραις, καλὸν αὐτοῖς ἐὰν μείνωσιν ὡς κἀγώ·

But I say to the unmarried and to widows, it is good for them if they remain even as I am.

我對着沒有嫁娶的和寡婦說，若他們常像我就好。

7:9

εἰ δὲ οὐκ ἐγκρατεύονται γαμησάτωσαν· κρεῖττον γάρ ἐστιν γαμεῖν ἢ πυροῦσθαι.

But if they don’t have self-control, let them marry. For it’s better to marry than to burn with passion.

倘若自己禁止不住，就可以嫁娶。與其慾火攻心，倒不如嫁娶為妙。
