1 Corinthians 7:18-24

18Was anyG5100 manG5100 calledG2564 when he was already circumcisedG4059? He is not to becomeG1986 uncircumcisedG1986. Has anyoneG5100 been calledG2564 in uncircumcisionG203? 1He is not to be circumcisedG4059. 192CircumcisionG4061 is nothingG3762, and uncircumcisionG203 is nothingG3762, but what matters is 3the keepingG5084 of the commandmentsG1785 of GodG2316. 204EachG1538 manG1538 must remainG3306 in that 5conditionG2821 in whichG3739 he was calledG2564.

21Were you calledG2564 while a slaveG1401? 6Do not worryG3199 about it; but ifG1487 you are ableG1410 alsoG2532 to becomeG1096 freeG1658, ratherG3123 7doG5530 that. 22For he who was calledG2564 in the LordG2962 while a slaveG1401, is 8the Lord’sG2962 freedmanG558; likewiseG3668 he who was calledG2564 while freeG1658, is 9Christ’sG5547 slaveG1401. 2310You were boughtG59 with a priceG5092; do not becomeG1096 slavesG1401 of menG444. 24BrethrenG80, 11eachG1538 oneG1538 is to remainG3306 with GodG2316 in that condition in whichG3739 he was calledG2564.
