Bible verse
To the married I give this command (not I, but the Lord): A wife must not separate from her husband.
1 Corinthians 7:10 · BSB
The verses around it, from 1 Corinthians 7.
6 I say this as a concession, not as a command.
7 I wish that all men were as I am. But each man has his own gift from God; one has this gift, another has that.
8 Now to the unmarried and widows I say this: It is good for them to remain unmarried, as I am.
9 But if they cannot control themselves, let them marry. For it is better to marry than to burn with passion.
10 To the married I give this command (not I, but the Lord): A wife must not separate from her husband.
11 But if she does, she must remain unmarried or else be reconciled to her husband. And a husband must not divorce his wife.
12 To the rest I say this (I, not the Lord): If a brother has an unbelieving wife and she is willing to live with him, he must not divorce her.
13 And if a woman has an unbelieving husband and he is willing to live with her, she must not divorce him.
14 For the unbelieving husband is sanctified through his believing wife, and the unbelieving wife is sanctified through her believing husband. Otherwise your children would be unclean, but now they are holy.
