1 Corinthians 7:25-35

25NowG1161 concerningG4012 virginsG3933, I haveG2192 1noG3756 commandG2003 of the LordG2962, but I am offeringG1325 directionG1106 as one who 23by the mercyG1653 of the LordG2962 is trustworthyG4103. 26I thinkG3543, thenG3767, that thisG3778 is goodG2570 inG1223 viewG1223 ofG1223 the 4presentG1764 5distressG318, that 6it is goodG2570 for a manG444 7to remainG1510 as he is. 27Are you boundG1210 to a wifeG1135? Do not seekG2212 to be releasedG3080. Are you releasedG3089 from a wifeG1135? Do not seekG2212 a wifeG1135. 28But ifG1437 you marryG1060, you have not sinnedG264; and ifG1437 a virginG3933 marriesG1060, she has not sinnedG264. YetG1161 suchG5108 peopleG5108 as yourselves will haveG2192 8troubleG2347 in thisG3588 lifeG4561, and I am trying to spareG5339 you. 29But thisG3778 I sayG5346, brothersG80, 9the timeG2540 has beenG1510 shortenedG4958, soG2443 thatG2443 fromG3062 nowG3062 onG3062 thoseG3588 who haveG2192 wivesG1135 should be asG5613 thoughG5613 they hadG2192 noneG3361; 30and thoseG3588 who weepG2799, asG5613 thoughG5613 they did not weepG2799; and thoseG3588 who rejoiceG5463, asG5613 thoughG5613 they did not rejoiceG5463; and thoseG3588 who buyG59, asG5613 thoughG5613 they did not possessG2722; 31and thoseG3588 who useG5530 the worldG2889, asG5613 thoughG5613 they did not 10makeG2710 fullG2710 useG2710 ofG2710 it; for 11the present formG4976 of thisG3778 worldG2889 is passingG3855 awayG3855.

32But I wantG2309 you to be freeG275 fromG275 concernG275. One who is 12unmarriedG22 is concernedG3309 aboutG3309 the things of the LordG2962, howG4459 he may pleaseG700 the LordG2962; 33but one who is marriedG1060 is concernedG3309 aboutG3309 the things of the worldG2889, howG4459 he may pleaseG700 his wifeG1135, 34and his interests are dividedG3307. The womanG1135 who is unmarriedG22, and the virginG3933, is concernedG3309 aboutG3309 the things of the LordG2962, that she may be holyG40 bothG2532 in bodyG4983 and spiritG4151; but one who is marriedG1060 is concernedG3309 aboutG3309 the things of the worldG2889, howG4459 she may pleaseG700 her husbandG435. 35I sayG3004 thisG3778 for your ownG846 benefitG4851, not to putG1911 a restraintG1029 onG1911 you, but 13to promoteG4314 whatG3588 is appropriateG2158 and to secure undistractedG563 devotionG2138 to the LordG2962.
