King James VersionSource notes
“The 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.”
Context
1Now concerning the things whereof ye wrote unto me: good for a man not to touch a woman.
2Nevertheless, 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 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.
6But I speak this by permission, not of commandment.
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.
