1 Corintios 7:8-10
Dios Habla Hoy
Casos especiales
8 A los solteros y a las viudas les digo que es preferible quedarse sin casar, como yo. 9 Pero si no pueden controlar su naturaleza, que se casen, pues más vale casarse que consumirse de pasión.
10 Pero a los que ya están casados, les doy este mandato, que no es mío, sino del Señor: que la esposa no se separe de su esposo.

1 Corinthians 7:8-10
New English Translation
8 To the unmarried and widows I say that it is best for them to remain as I am. 9 But if they do not have self-control, let them get married. For it is better to marry than to burn with sexual desire.[a]
10 To the married I give this command—not I, but the Lord[b]—a wife should not divorce a husband
