13 F oods for the stomach and the stomach for foods, but God will destroy both it and them. Now the body is not for sexual immorality but for the Lord, and the Lord for the body.

Meats for the belly, and the belly for meats: but God shall bring to nought both it and them. But the body is not for fornication, but for the Lord; and the Lord for the body:

But he that is joined unto the Lord is one spirit.

19 O r do you not know that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God, and you are not your own?
