Clementine Vulgate, 1598
King James Version with Apocrypha
1De quibus autem scripsistis mihi: Bonum est homini mulierem non tangere:
1Now concerning the things whereof ye wrote unto me: It is good for a man not to touch a woman.
2propter fornicationem autem unusquisque suam uxorem habeat, et unaquæque suum virum habeat.
2Nevertheless, to avoid fornication, let every man have his own wife, and let every woman have her own husband.
3Uxori vir debitum reddat: similiter autem et uxor viro.
3Let the husband render unto the wife due benevolence: and likewise also the wife unto the husband.
4Mulier sui corporis potestatem non habet, sed vir. Similiter autem et vir sui corporis potestatem non habet, sed mulier.
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.
5Nolite fraudare invicem, nisi forte ex consensu ad tempus, ut vacetis orationi: et iterum revertimini in idipsum, ne tentet vos Satanas propter incontinentiam vestram.
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.
6Hoc autem dico secundum indulgentiam, non secundum imperium.
6But I speak this by permission, and not of commandment.
7Volo enim omnes vos esse sicut meipsum: sed unusquisque proprium donum habet ex Deo: alius quidem sic, alius vero sic.
7For I would that all men were even as I myself. But every man hath his proper gift of God, one after this manner, and another after that.
8Dico autem non nuptis, et viduis: bonum est illis si sic permaneant, sicut et ego.
8I say therefore to the unmarried and widows, It is good for them if they abide even as I.
9Quod si non se continent, nubant. Melius est enim nubere, quam uri.
9But if they cannot contain, let them marry: for it is better to marry than to burn.
10Iis autem qui matrimonio juncti sunt, præcipio non ego, sed Dominus, uxorem a viro non discedere:
10And unto the married I command, yet not I, but the Lord, Let not the wife depart from her husband:
11quod si discesserit, manere innuptam, aut viro suo reconciliari. Et vir uxorem non dimittat.
11But and if she depart, let her remain unmarried, or be reconciled to her husband: and let not the husband put away his wife.
12Nam ceteris ego dico, non Dominus. Si quis frater uxorem habet infidelem, et hæc consentit habitare cum illo, non dimittat illam.
12But to the rest speak I, not the Lord: If any brother hath a wife that believeth not, and she be pleased to dwell with him, let him not put her away.
13Et si qua mulier fidelis habet virum infidelem, et hic consentit habitare cum illa, non dimittat virum:
13And the woman which hath an husband that believeth not, and if he be pleased to dwell with her, let her not leave him.
14sanctificatus est enim vir infidelis per mulierem fidelem, et sanctificata est mulier infidelis per virum fidelem: alioquin filii vestri immundi essent, nunc autem sancti sunt.
14For the unbelieving husband is sanctified by the wife, and the unbelieving wife is sanctified by the husband: else were your children unclean; but now are they holy.
15Quod si infidelis discedit, discedat: non enim servituti subjectus est frater, aut soror in hujusmodi: in pace autem vocavit nos Deus.
15But if the unbelieving depart, let him depart. A brother or a sister is not under bondage in such cases : but God hath called us to peace.
16Unde enim scis mulier, si virum salvum facies? aut unde scis vir, si mulierem salvam facies?
16For what knowest thou, O wife, whether thou shalt save thy husband? or how knowest thou, O man, whether thou shalt save thy wife?
17Nisi unicuique sicut divisit Dominus, unumquemque sicut vocavit Deus, ita ambulet, et sicut in omnibus ecclesiis doceo.
17But as God hath distributed to every man, as the Lord hath called every one, so let him walk. And so ordain I in all churches.
18Circumcisus aliquis vocatus est? non adducat præputium. In præputio aliquis vocatus est? non circumcidatur.
18Is any man called being circumcised? let him not become uncircumcised. Is any called in uncircumcision? let him not be circumcised.
19Circumcisio nihil est, et præputium nihil est: sed observatio mandatorum Dei.
19Circumcision is nothing, and uncircumcision is nothing, but the keeping of the commandments of God.
20Unusquisque in qua vocatione vocatus est, in ea permaneat.
20Let every man abide in the same calling wherein he was called.
21Servus vocatus es? non sit tibi curæ: sed et si potes fieri liber, magis utere.
21Art thou called being a servant? care not for it: but if thou mayest be made free, use it rather.
22Qui enim in Domino vocatus est servus, libertus est Domini: similiter qui liber vocatus est, servus est Christi.
22For he that is called in the Lord, being a servant, is the Lord’s freeman: likewise also he that is called, being free, is Christ’s servant.
23Pretio empti estis: nolite fieri servi hominum.
23Ye are bought with a price; be not ye the servants of men.
24Unusquisque in quo vocatus est, fratres, in hoc permaneat apud Deum.
24Brethren, let every man, wherein he is called, therein abide with God.
25De virginibus autem præceptum Domini non habeo: consilium autem do, tamquam misericordiam consecutus a Domino, ut sim fidelis.
25Now concerning virgins I have no commandment of the Lord: yet I give my judgment, as one that hath obtained mercy of the Lord to be faithful.
26Existimo ergo hoc bonum esse propter instantem necessitatem, quoniam bonum est homini sic esse.
26I suppose therefore that this is good for the present distress, I say , that it is good for a man so to be.
27Alligatus es uxori? noli quærere solutionem. Solutus es ab uxore? noli quærere uxorem.
27Art thou bound unto a wife? seek not to be loosed. Art thou loosed from a wife? seek not a wife.
28Si autem acceperis uxorem, non peccasti. Et si nupserit virgo, non peccavit: tribulationem tamen carnis habebunt hujusmodi. Ego autem vobis parco.
28But and if thou marry, thou hast not sinned; and if a virgin marry, she hath not sinned. Nevertheless such shall have trouble in the flesh: but I spare you.
29Hoc itaque dico, fratres: tempus breve est: reliquum est, ut et qui habent uxores, tamquam non habentes sint:
29But this I say, brethren, the time is short: it remaineth, that both they that have wives be as though they had none;
30et qui flent, tamquam non flentes: et qui gaudent, tamquam non gaudentes: et qui emunt, tamquam non possidentes:
30And they that weep, as though they wept not; and they that rejoice, as though they rejoiced not; and they that buy, as though they possessed not;
31et qui utuntur hoc mundo, tamquam non utantur: præterit enim figura hujus mundi.
31And they that use this world, as not abusing it : for the fashion of this world passeth away.
32Volo autem vos sine sollicitudine esse. Qui sine uxore est, sollicitus est quæ Domini sunt, quomodo placeat Deo.
32But I would have you without carefulness. He that is unmarried careth for the things that belong to the Lord, how he may please the Lord:
33Qui autem cum uxore est, sollicitus est quæ sunt mundi, quomodo placeat uxori, et divisus est.
33But he that is married careth for the things that are of the world, how he may please his wife.
34Et mulier innupta, et virgo, cogitat quæ Domini sunt, ut sit sancta corpore, et spiritu. Quæ autem nupta est, cogitat quæ sunt mundi, quomodo placeat viro.
34There is difference also between a wife and a virgin. The unmarried woman careth for the things of the Lord, that she may be holy both in body and in spirit: but she that is married careth for the things of the world, how she may please her husband.
35Porro hoc ad utilitatem vestram dico: non ut laqueum vobis injiciam, sed ad id, quod honestum est, et quod facultatem præbeat sine impedimento Dominum obsecrandi.
35And this I speak for your own profit; not that I may cast a snare upon you, but for that which is comely, and that ye may attend upon the Lord without distraction.
36Si quis autem turpem se videri existimat super virgine sua, quod sit superadulta, et ita oportet fieri: quod vult faciat: non peccat, si nubat.
36But if any man think that he behaveth himself uncomely toward his virgin, if she pass the flower of her age, and need so require, let him do what he will, he sinneth not: let them marry.
37Nam qui statuit in corde suo firmus, non habens necessitatem, potestatem autem habens suæ voluntatis, et hoc judicavit in corde suo, servare virginem suam, bene facit.
37Nevertheless he that standeth stedfast in his heart, having no necessity, but hath power over his own will, and hath so decreed in his heart that he will keep his virgin, doeth well.
38Igitur et qui matrimonio jungit virginem suam, bene facit: et qui non jungit, melius facit.
38So then he that giveth her in marriage doeth well; but he that giveth her not in marriage doeth better.
39Mulier alligata est legi quanto tempore vir ejus vivit, quod si dormierit vir ejus, liberata est: cui vult nubat, tantum in Domino.
39The wife is bound by the law as long as her husband liveth; but if her husband be dead, she is at liberty to be married to whom she will; only in the Lord.
40Beatior autem erit si sic permanserit secundum meum consilium: puto autem quod et ego Spiritum Dei habeam.
40But she is happier if she so abide, after my judgment: and I think also that I have the Spirit of God.
