Defraud ye not one the other, except it be with consent for a time, that ye may give yourselves to fasting and prayer; and come together again, that Satan tempt you not for your incontinency.
American Standard Version (ASV)English
Defraud ye not one the other, except it be by consent for a season, that ye may give yourselves unto prayer, and may be together again, that Satan tempt you not because of your incontinency.
Open English Bible (OEB)English
Do not deprive each other of what is due — unless it is only for a time and by mutual consent, so that your minds may be free for prayer until you again live as man and wife — otherwise Satan might take advantage of your want of self-control and tempt you.
Elberfelder Bibel (ELB)Deutsch
Entziehet euch einander nicht, es sei denn etwa nach Übereinkunft eine Zeitlang, auf daß ihr zum Beten Muße habet; und kommet wieder zusammen, auf daß der Satan euch nicht versuche wegen eurer Unenthaltsamkeit.
Reina-Valera (RV)Español
No os defraudéis el uno al otro, á no ser por algún tiempo de mutuo consentimiento, para ocuparos en la oración: y volved á juntaros en uno, porque no os tiente Satanás á causa de vuestra incontinencia.
Bíblia Livre (BL)Português
Não vos priveis um ao outro, a não ser por consentimento de ambos por algum tempo, para que vos ocupeis com jejum, e para a oração; e voltai-vos outra vez a se juntarem, para que Satanás não vos tente, por causa de vossa falta de domínio próprio.
Nova Versão (NVA)Português
Não vos priveis um ao outro, exceto quando houver concordância mútua e por um período de tempo específico, para que possam se dedicar à oração. Então, depois disso, uni-vos novamente. Assim, Satanás não vos tentará por causa da falta de controle.
