Never! ¹⁶ Do you not know that he who unites himself with a prostitute is one with her in body? For it is said, “The two will become one flesh.”^{[a](F) 17} But whoever is united with the Lord is one with him in spirit.^[b](G)

¹⁸ Flee from sexual immorality.^(H) All other sins a person commits are outside the body, but whoever sins sexually, sins against their own body.^{(I) 19} Do you not know that your bodies are temples^(J) of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own;^{(K) 20} you were bought at a price.^(L) Therefore honor God with your bodies.^(M)
