1 Corinthians 6:19-20
Don't you know that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit,
who lives in you
& was given to you by God?
You do not belong to yourself,
for God bought you with a high price.
So you must honor God with your body.
(New Living Translation, 1st ed.)
19 Or do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit within you,
whom you have from God?
You are not your own,
20 for you were bought with a price.
So glorify God in your body.
(English Standard Version)
19 You should know that your body is a temple for the Holy Spirit
that you received from God
and that lives in you.
You don’t own yourselves.
20 God paid a very high price to make you his.
So honor God with your body.
(Easy to Read Version)
Have you forgotten that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit,
who lives in you,
and that you are not the owner of your own body?
You have been bought,
and at what a price!
Therefore bring glory to God both in your body and your spirit,
for they both belong to him.
(J B Phillips)
Or didn’t you realize that your body is a sacred place,
the place of the Holy Spirit?
Don’t you see that you can’t live however you please,
squandering what God paid such a high price for?
The physical part of you is not some piece of property belonging to the spiritual part of you.
God owns the whole works.
So let people see God in and through your body.
(The Message)
19 Do you not know that your bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit,
who is in you,
whom you have received from God?
You are not your own;
20 you were bought at a price.
Therefore honor God with your bodies.
(New International Version)
19 Have you forgotten that your body is now the sacred temple of the Spirit of Holiness,
who lives in you?
You don’t belong to yourself any longer,
for the gift of God, the Holy Spirit, lives inside your sanctuary.
20 You were God’s expensive purchase,
paid for with tears of blood,
so by all means, then, use your body to bring glory to God!
(The Passion Translation)
19 Don’t you know that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit
who comes from God
and dwells inside of you?
You do not own yourself.
20 You have been purchased at a great price,
so use your body to bring glory to God!
