14 For the unbelieving husband is made holy(A) by the wife, and the unbelieving wife is made holy by the husband.[a] Otherwise your children would be unclean, but as it is they are holy. 15 But if the unbeliever leaves, let him leave. A brother or a sister is not bound in such cases. God has called you[b] to live in peace. 16 Wife, for all you know, you might save your husband. Husband, for all you know, you might save your wife.[c]
