OET (OET-LV) And a_woman who is_having a_husband unbelieving, and this one is_consenting to_be_dwelling with her, not her _let_be_leaving the husband.
OET (OET-RV) Similarly, if any woman has an unbelieving husband and he agrees to live with her, she shouldn’t divorce him.

γυνὴ εἴ τις ἔχει ἄνδρα ἄπιστον, καὶ οὗτος συνευδοκεῖ οἰκεῖν μετ’ αὐτῆς, μὴ ἀφιέτω
/a/_woman (Some words not found in SR-GNT: καὶ γυνὴ ἥτις ἔχει ἄνδρα ἄπιστον καὶ οὗτος συνευδοκεῖ οἰκεῖν μετʼ αὐτῆς μὴ ἀφιέτω τὸν ἄνδρα)
Here Paul uses if to introduce a true possibility. He means that a woman might have an unbelieving husband, and he might agree to live with her, or this situation might not happen. He then specifies the result if this situation does happen. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express this form by stating the if statement by introducing it with a word such as “whenever” or by using a relative clause. Alternate translation: “but let any woman who has an unbelieving husband who agrees to live with her not divorce”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom
οἰκεῖν μετ’ αὐτῆς
/to_be/_dwelling with her
Here, to live with her refers to staying married. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express to live with her with a comparable idiom that refers to staying married. Alternate translation: “to stay with her” or “to remain married to her”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / imperative3p
μὴ ἀφιέτω τὸν ἄνδρα
not ˱her˲_/let_be/_leaving her husband
Here Paul uses a third-person imperative. If you have third-person imperatives in your language, you could use one here. If you do not have third-person imperatives, you could express the idea using a word such as “must” or “should.” Alternate translation: “she must not divorce the husband”
7:1-40 Paul consistently states his strong conviction that true Christians, as slaves of Christ, are wholly claimed by Christ the Lord for his own service. Because of this, he recommends that Christians remain single, but concedes that getting married is no sin.

OET (OET-RV) Similarly, if any woman has an unbelieving husband and he agrees to live with her, she shouldn’t divorce him.
Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.
