1 Corinthians 7:4 in Context — 1 Corinthians 7
2 Mas á causa de las fornicaciones, cada uno tenga su mujer, y cada una tenga su marido.
3 El marido pague á la mujer la debida benevolencia; y asimismo la mujer al marido.
4 La mujer no tiene potestad de su propio cuerpo, sino el marido: é igualmente tampoco el marido tiene potestad de su propio cuerpo, sino la mujer.
5 No os defraudéis el uno al otro, á no ser por algún tiempo de [mutuo] consentimiento, para ocuparos en la oración: y volved á juntaros en uno, porque no os tiente Satanás á causa de vuestra incontinencia.
6 Mas esto digo por permisión, no por mandamiento.
