Faithful is Aloha, by whom you have been called to the fellowship of his Son Jeshu Meshiha our Lord.

BUT unto us hath Aloha revealed, by his Spirit. For the Spirit all things searcheth, also the depths of Aloha.

But he who planteth and he who watereth are one, (and) each according to his labour his recompence receiveth.

And he whose work which he builded shall abide, will receive his recompense;

BUT these things, my brethren, for your sakes I have applied to the person of myself and of Apolo, that through us you may learn not to think of us beyond what is written; and that one above his neighbour may not be exalted on account of any thing.

Fornication is commonly reported among you; and such fornication as is not heard among the Heathens, that the son should take the wife of his father.

and you deliver this (man) to Satana for the destruction of his body, that in spirit he may be saved in the day of our Lord Jeshu Meshiha.

DARE any of you, having a suit with his brother, to litigate before the evil, and not before the saints ?

But to your reproach am I to say to you, So there is not among you even one wise man, who is able to adjust between a brother and his brother ?

But a brother with his brother litigates, and, moreover, before those who are unbelievers !

And Aloha hath raised up our Lord, and us will raise by his power.

Flee from fornication: for every sin which a man committeth is without his body; but he who committeth fornication against his own body sinneth.

but, because of fornication, let a man take his wife, and let a woman take her husband.

And let a man render the love that is due unto his wife;

so also the wife to her husband. For the wife hath not authority over her body, but the husband; so also the man hath not authority over his body, but his wife.

Yet, if she separate, let her remain without a man, or unto her husband be reconciled. And let not a man put away his wife.

Wherefore I would that you be without anxiety; for he who hath not a wife thinketh of the things of his Lord, that so he may please his Lord;

and he who hath a wife is anxious for the world, that so he may please his wife.

But if a man consider it to be dishonourable toward his virgin, who hath passed her time, that he hath not given her to the man, (and) that it is proper that he should give her; as he willeth let him act, he sinneth not: let them marry.

But he who hath firmly decided in his own mind, and nothing constraineth him, and (who hath) power in his will, and thus judgeth in his heart, that he will keep his virgin, doeth well.
