1 Thessalonians 4:6-8
Worldwide English (New Testament)
6 Do not do wrong to your Christian brother by taking his wife for yourself. The Lord will surely punish all those who do wrong in these things. We have already told you that and made it very clear.
7 God did not call us to live unclean lives. He wants you to live clean and holy lives.
8 So anyone who does not obey is not just disobeying a man, but he is disobeying God. And it is God who has given us his Holy Spirit.
