Dauh dauh m'sieqv dorn oix zuqc maaih ninh ganh nyei nqox

1 Now for the matters you wrote about: It is good for a man not to marry. 2 But since there is so much immorality, each man should have his own wife, and each woman her own husband.

3 Maiv dungx laanh zaanc laanh. Nqox oix zuqc nyunc ei ninh nyei auv, auv yaac oix zuqc nyunc ei ninh nyei nqox. 4 Weic zuqc auv ganh maiv maaih leiz gunv ganh nyei sin, se ninh nyei nqox gunv. Fih hnangv nyei, nqox ganh yaac maiv maaih leiz gunv ganh nyei sin, se ninh nyei auv gunv.

3 The husband should fulfill his marital duty to his wife, and likewise the wife to her husband. 4 The wife's body does not belong to her alone but also to her husband. In the same way, the husband's body does not belong to him alone but also to his wife.

5 Maiv dungx laanh zaanc laanh maiv juangc coux bueix, cuotv liuz i hmuangv dongh hnyouv dingc maiv juangc bueix i ziex hnoi, weic longc ziangh hoc daux gaux.

5 Do not deprive each other except by mutual consent and for a time, so that you may devote yourselves to prayer. Then come together again so that Satan will not tempt you because of your lack of self-control.

Marriage should also witness a deepening of faith in each other.
