1 Corinthians 7:15

But if the unbelieving depart, let him depart; the brother or sister is not bound in such cases. But God has called us to live in peace.

Henry Tompkins Anderson’s 1864 New Testament

In The King James Version

But if the unbelieving depart, let him depart. A brother or a sister is not under bondage in such cases: but God hath called us to peace.

In Context

14For the unbelieving husband is sanctified by the wife, and the unbelieving wife is sanctified by the husband; for if not, then are your children unclean; but now they are holy.

16For how do you know, O wife, but that you may save your husband? Or how do you know, husband, but that you may save your wife?
