1 Corinthians 7:32-40

Rotherham(i) 32 And I desire you to be, without anxiety:––the unmarried man, is anxious for the things of the Lord, how he may please the Lord; 33 But, he that hath married, is anxious for the things of the world, how may please his wife–– 34 And he is divided; and, the unmarried woman, or the virgin, is anxious for the things of the Lord, that she may be holy [both] in her body and in her spirit; but, she that hath married, is anxious for the things of the world, how she may please her husband. 35 This, however, with a view to your own profit, am I saying,––not that, a snare, upon you, I may cast, but with a view to what is comely, and devoted unto the Lord, without distraction.
36 If however anyone considereth it behaving unseemly towards his virginity, if he should be beyond the bloom of life,––and, thus, it ought to come about, what he chooseth, let him do,––he sinneth not: let them marry: 37 But, he that standeth in his heart, steadfast, having no necessity, but hath authority concerning his own will, and, this, hath determined in his own heart,––to preserve his own virginity, well shall he do. 38 So that, he that giveth in marriage his own virginity, doeth, well; and, he that giveth it not, shall do, better.
39 A wife, is bound for as long a time as her husband is living; but, if the husband have fallen asleep, she is, free, to be married unto whom she pleaseth,––only, in the Lord; 40 But, happier, is she, if, so, she remain,––in my judgment; for I think, I also, have the Spirit of God.
