Proverbs 5:15-23
Drink water from your own cistern and running water from your own well.Should your springs be dispersed outside, your streams of water in the wide plazas?Let them be for yourself alone, and not for strangers with you.May your fountain be blessed, and may you rejoice in your young wife–a loving doe, a graceful deer; may her breasts satisfy you at all times, may you be captivated by her love always.But why should you be captivated, my son, by an adulteress, and embrace the bosom of a different woman?For the ways of a person are in front of the LORD’s eyes, and the LORD weighs all that person’s paths.The wicked will be captured by his own iniquities, and he will be held by the cords of his own sin.He will die because there was no discipline; because of the greatness of his folly he will reel.

1 Corinthians 7 2-1 Corinthians 7 16
But because of immoralities, each man should have relations with his own wife and each woman with her own husband.A husband should give to his wife her sexual rights, and likewise a wife to her husband.It is not the wife who has the rights to her own body, but the husband. In the same way, it is not the husband who has the rights to his own body, but the wife.Do not deprive each other, except by mutual agreement for a specified time, so that you may devote yourselves to prayer. Then resume your relationship, so that Satan may not tempt you because of your lack of self- control.I say this as a concession, not as a command.I wish that everyone was as I am. But each has his own gift from God, one this way, another that.To the unmarried and widows I say that it is best for them to remain as I am.But if they do not have self- control, let them get married. For it is better to marry than to burn with sexual desire.To the married I give this command– not I, but the Lord– a wife should not divorce a husband( but if she does, let her remain unmarried, or be reconciled to her husband), and a husband should not divorce his wife.To the rest I say– I, not the Lord– if a brother has a wife who is not a believer and she is happy to live with him, he should not divorce her.And if a woman has a husband who is not a believer and he is happy to live with her, she should not divorce him.For the unbelieving husband is sanctified because of the wife, and the unbelieving wife because of her husband. Otherwise your children are unclean, but now they are holy.But if the unbeliever wants a divorce, let it take place. In these circumstances the brother or sister is not bound. God has called you in peace.For how do you know, wife, whether you will bring your husband to salvation? Or how do you know, husband, whether you will bring your wife to salvation?

But now I will condemn you and state my case against you!Carefully consider this, you who reject God! Otherwise I will rip you to shreds and no one will be able to rescue you.
