Правило 1

On the anathema to those who condemn and abhor legal marriage and conjugal intercourse.
If someone begins to condemn marriage and disdain a faithful and pious wife who shares a bed with her husband, or speak of her with censure that she allegedly cannot enter the Kingdom of Heaven, let him be anathema.
Greek original
Εἴ τις τὸν γάμον μέμφοιτο, καὶ τὴν καθεύδουσαν μετὰ τοῦ ἀνδρὸς αὐτῆς, οὖσαν πιστὴν καὶ εὐλαβῆ, βδελύσσοιτο ἢ μέμφοιτο, ὡς ἂν μὴ δυναμένην εἰς βασιλείαν εἰσελθεῖν, ἀνάθεμα ἔστω.
