Don’t deprive one another, unless it is by consent for a season, that you may give yourselves to fasting and prayer, and may be together again, that Satan doesn’t tempt you because of your lack of self-control.

ગુજરાતીકરિંથીઓને પહેલો પત્ર ૭:૫
એકબીજાથી જુદાં ના થાઓ, પણ પ્રાર્થના માટે થોડીવાર સુધી એકબીજાની સંમતિથી જુદાં થવું પડે તો થાઓ. પછી પાછા ભેગા થાઓ, રખેને શેતાન તમારા માનસિક વિકારને લીધે તમને પરીક્ષણમાં પાડે.
हिन्दी1 कुरिन्थियों ७:५
तुम एक दूसरे से अलग न रहो; परन्तु केवल कुछ समय तक आपस की सम्मति से कि प्रार्थना के लिये अवकाश मिले, और फिर एक साथ रहो; ऐसा न हो, कि तुम्हारे असंयम के कारण शैतान तुम्हें परखे।

In context

3Let the husband give his wife the affection owed her, and likewise also the wife her husband.

4The wife doesn’t have authority over her own body, but the husband does. Likewise also the husband doesn’t have authority over his own body, but the wife does.

5Don’t deprive one another, unless it is by consent for a season, that you may give yourselves to fasting and prayer, and may be together again, that Satan doesn’t tempt you because of your lack of self-control.

6But this I say by way of concession, not of commandment.

7Yet I wish that all men were like me. However, each man has his own gift from God, one of this kind, and another of that kind.
