14 Now God has not only (A)raised the Lord, but (B)will also raise us up through His power. 15 (C)Do you not know that (D)your bodies are members of Christ? Shall I then take away the members of Christ and make them members of a prostitute? (E)May it never be! 16 Or (F)do you not know that the one who joins himself to a prostitute is one body with her?

Every other sin that a man commits is outside the body, but the [a]immoral man sins against his own body. 19 Or (J)do you not know that (K)your body is a [b]temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from [c]God, and that (L)you are not your own? 20 For (M)you have been bought with a price: therefore glorify God in (N)your body.
