1 Corinthians 7:5

Except it be by consent for a season (ei mhti an ek sumfwnou prov kairon). If an is genuine, it can either be regarded as like ean though without a verb or as loosely added after ei mhti and construed with it.

That ye may give yourselves unto prayer ( ina sxolashte th proseuxh). First aorist active subjunctive of sxolazw, late verb from sxolh, leisure (our "school"), and so to have leisure (punctiliar act and not permanent) for prayer. Note private devotions here.

That Satan tempt you not (ina mh peirazh). Present subjunctive, that Satan may not keep on tempting you.

Because of your incontinency (dia thn akrasian umwn). A late word from Aristotle on for akrateia from akrathv (without self-control, a privative and kratew, to control, common old word). In N.T. only here and Matthew 23:25 which see.
