兩個人總比一個人好，因為二人勞碌同得美好的果效。若是跌倒，這人可以扶起 他的同伴;再者，二人同睡就都暖和，一人獨睡怎能暖和呢?有人攻勝孤身一人， 若有二人便能敵擋他。
既然如此，夫妻不再是兩個人，乃是一體的了。所以神配合的，人不可分開。
愛是恆久忍耐、又有恩慈，愛是不嫉妒，愛是不自誇、不張狂、不作害羞的事、 不求自己的益處、不輕易發怒、不計算人的惡、不喜歡不義、只喜歡真理。 凡事包容、凡事相信、凡事盼望、凡事忍耐。愛是永不止息。
Two are better than one, because they have a good return for their work:If one falls down, his friend can help him up. But pity the man who falls and has no one to help him up! Also, if two lie down together, they will keep warm. But how can one keep warm alone? Though one may be overpowered, two can defend themselves. A cord of three strands is not quickly broken.
And the two will become one flesh.' So they are no longer two, but one. Therefore what God has joined together, let man not separate.
Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud.It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth.It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away.
