1 Corinthians 6:15-20
New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
15 Do you not know that your bodies are members of Christ? Should I therefore take the members of Christ and make them members of a prostitute? Never! 16 Do you not know that whoever is united to a prostitute becomes one body with her? For it is said, “The two shall be one flesh.” 17 But anyone united to the Lord becomes one spirit with him. 18 Shun fornication! Every sin that a person commits is outside the body; but the fornicator sins against the body itself. 19 Or do you not know that your body is a temple[a] of the Holy Spirit within you, which you have from God, and that you are not your own? 20 For you were bought with a price; therefore glorify God in your body.

1 Corinthians 6:15-20
New King James Version
15 Do you not know that (A)your bodies are members of Christ? Shall I then take the members of Christ and make them members of a harlot? Certainly not! 16 Or do you not know that he who is joined to a harlot is one body with her? For (B)“the two,” He says, “shall become one flesh.” 17 (C)But he who is joined to the Lord is one spirit with Him.
18 (D)Flee sexual immorality. Every sin that a man does is outside the body, but he who commits sexual immorality sins (E)against his own body. 19 Or (F)do you not know that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God, (G)and you are not your own? 20 For (H)you were bought at a price; therefore glorify God in your body [a]and in your spirit, which are God’s.
