Ajuda para casais
Deus fortalece casamentos. A Bíblia oferece sabedoria prática para casais: comunicar com verdade, perdoar com graça, servir com amor e buscar a Deus juntos.
Amor e respeito
Maridos, amai vossas mulheres. Mulheres, respeitem seus maridos. O amor mútuo edifica o casamento.
The husbands: love your own wives, as the Christ also loved the Assembly, and gave Himself for it,
but you also, everyone in particular—let each so love his own wife as himself, and the wife—that she may revere the husband.
so ought the husbands to love their own wives as their own bodies: he who is loving his own wife—he loves himself; for no one ever hated his own flesh, but nourishes and nurtures it, as also the LORD—the Assembly,
For this reason, putting away the lying, each speak truth with his neighbor, because we are members of one another;
be angry and do not sin; do not let the sun go down on your wrath, neither give place to the Devil;
Let no corrupt word go forth out of your mouth, but what is good to the necessary building up, that it may give grace to the hearers;
Let all bitterness, and wrath, and anger, and clamor, and slander, be put away from you, with all malice, and become kind to one another, tender-hearted, forgiving one another, according as God also forgave you in Christ.
União e fidelidade
O que Deus ajuntou não separe o homem. Eu e minha casa serviremos ao Senhor. A fidelidade é alicerce do casamento.
So that they are no longer two, but one flesh; what therefore God joined together, let no man separate."
and if [it is] wrong in your eyes to serve YHWH—choose for yourselves today whom you serve—whether the gods whom your fathers served, which [are] beyond the River, or the gods of the Amorite in whose land you are dwelling; but me and my house—we serve YHWH."
The marriage [is to be] honored by all, and the bed undefiled, for God will judge whoremongers and adulterers.
The wives: be subject to your own husbands, as is fit in the LORD; the husbands: love your wives, and do not be bitter with them;
and above all these things, [have] love, which is a bond of the perfection, and let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to which you were also called in one body, and become thankful.
Put on, therefore, as chosen ones of God, holy and beloved, yearnings of mercies, kindness, humble-mindedness, meekness, long-suffering, bearing with one another, and forgiving each other, if anyone may have a quarrel with anyone, as the Christ also forgave you—so also you;
Perdão e paciência
Sede bondosos e compassivos uns com os outros. O amor é paciente, benigno. Permanece e persevera.
Love is long-suffering, it is kind, love does not envy, love does not vaunt itself, is not puffed up, does not act unseemly, does not seek its own things, is not provoked, does not impute evil, [does] not rejoice over unrighteousness, and rejoices with the truth; it bears all things, it believes all, it hopes all, it endures all.
and to the married I announce—not I, but the LORD—do not let a wife separate from a husband: but, and if she may separate, let her remain unmarried, or let her be reconciled to the husband, and do not let a husband send a wife away.
to the wife let the husband render the due benevolence, and in like manner also the wife to the husband; the wife does not have authority over her own body, but the husband; and in like manner also, the husband does not have authority over his own body, but the wife. Do not defraud one another, except by consent for a time, that you may be free for fasting and prayer, and again may come together, that Satan may not tempt you because of your self-indulgence;
nothing in rivalry or vainglory, but in humility of mind counting one another more excellent than yourselves— do not each look to your own, but each also to the things of others.
see [that] no one may render evil for evil to anyone, but always pursue that which is good, both to one another and to all;
Before all things, having earnest love among yourselves, because love covers a multitude of sins;
[Whoever] has found a wife has found good, || And brings out goodwill from YHWH.
