Amplified Bible
1 Corinthians 7:39-40
39A wife is bound [to her husband by law] as long as he lives. But if her husband dies, she is free to marry whomever she wishes, only [provided that he too is] in the Lord.
40But in my opinion a widow is happier if she stays as she is. And I think that I also have the Spirit of God [in this matter].
