1 Corinthians 7:21-28

21Art thou calledG2564 being a servantG1401? careG3199 notG3361 for itG4771: butG235 ifG1487 thou mayestG1410 be madeG1096 freeG1658, useG5530 it ratherG3123. 22ForG1063 he thatG3588 is calledG2564 inG1722 the LordG2962, being a servantG1401, isG1510 the Lord’sG2962 freemanG558: likewiseG3668 alsoG2532 he thatG3588 is calledG2564, being freeG1658, isG1510 Christ’sG5547 servantG1401. 23Ye are boughtG59 with a priceG5092; beG1096 notG3361 yeG1096 the servantsG1401 of menG444. 24BrethrenG80, let every manG1538, whereinG1722 he is calledG2564, thereinG1722 abideG3306 withG3844 GodG3588G2316.

25NowG1161 concerningG4012 virginsG3588G3933 I haveG2192 noG3756 commandmentG2003 of the LordG2962: yetG1161 I giveG1325 my judgmentG1106, asG5613 one that hath obtained mercyG1653 ofG5259 the LordG2962 to beG1510 faithfulG4103. 26I supposeG3543 thereforeG3767 that thisG3778 isG5225 goodG2570 forG1223 the presentG1764 distressG318, I say, thatG3754 it is goodG2570 for a manG444 soG3779 to beG1510. 27Art thou boundG1210 unto a wifeG1135? seekG2212 notG3361 to be loosedG3080. Art thou loosedG3089 fromG575 a wifeG1135? seekG2212 notG3361 a wifeG1135. 28ButG1161 andG2532 ifG1437 thou marryG1060, thou hastG264 notG3756 sinnedG264; andG2532 ifG1437 a virginG3588G3933 marryG1060, she hathG264 notG3756 sinnedG264. NeverthelessG1161 suchG5108 shall haveG2192 troubleG2347 in the fleshG3588G4561: butG1161 IG1473 spareG5339 youG4771.
