1 Corinthians 7:4-6
Legacy Standard Bible
4 The wife does not have authority over her own body, but the husband does; and likewise also the husband does not have authority over his own body, but the wife does. 5 (A)Stop depriving one another, except by agreement for a time, so that you may devote yourselves to prayer, and [a]come together again so that (B)Satan will not tempt you because of your lack of self-control. 6 But this I say as a concession, (C)not as a command.

1 Corinthians 7:4-6
New International Version
4 The wife does not have authority over her own body but yields it to her husband. In the same way, the husband does not have authority over his own body but yields it to his wife. 5 Do not deprive each other except perhaps by mutual consent and for a time,(A) so that you may devote yourselves to prayer. Then come together again so that Satan(B) will not tempt you(C) because of your lack of self-control. 6 I say this as a concession, not as a command.(D)
