1 Corinthians 7:25-38

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. 29ButG1161 thisG3778 I sayG5346, brethrenG80, the timeG3588G2540 is shortG4958: it remainethG1510, thatG2443 bothG2532 they thatG3588 haveG2192 wivesG1135 beG1510 as thoughG5613 they hadG2192 noneG3361; 30AndG2532 theyG3588 that weepG2799, as thoughG5613 they weptG2799 notG3361; andG2532 theyG3588 that rejoiceG5463, as thoughG5613 they rejoicedG5463 notG3361; andG2532 theyG3588 that buyG59, as thoughG5613 they possessedG2722 notG3361; 31AndG2532 theyG3588 that useG5530 thisG3778 worldG3588G2889, asG5613 notG3361 abusingG2710 it: forG1063 the fashionG3588G4976 of thisG3778 worldG3588G2889 passeth awayG3855. 32ButG1161 I would haveG2309 youG4771 without carefulnessG275. HeG3588 that isG1510 unmarriedG22 careth forG3309 the thingsG3588 that belong to the LordG3588G2962, howG4459 he may pleaseG700 the LordG3588G2962: 33ButG1161 heG3588 that is marriedG1060 careth forG3309 the thingsG3588 that are of the worldG3588G2889, howG4459 he may pleaseG700 his wifeG3588G1135. 34There is differenceG3307 also betweenG3307 a wifeG3588G1135 andG2532 a virginG3588G3933. The unmarriedG3588G22 woman careth forG3309 the thingsG3588 of the LordG3588G2962, thatG2443 she may beG1510 holyG40 bothG2532 in bodyG4983 andG2532 in spiritG4151: butG1161 sheG3588 that is marriedG1060 careth forG3309 the thingsG3588 of the worldG3588G2889, howG4459 she may pleaseG700 her husbandG3588G435. 35AndG1161 thisG3778 I speakG3004 forG4314 yourG4771 ownG846 profitG4851; notG3756 thatG2443 I may castG1911 a snareG1029 upon youG4771, butG235 forG4314 that which is comelyG2158, andG2532 that ye may attend uponG2145 the LordG3588G2962 without distractionG563. 36ButG1161 ifG1487 any manG5100 thinkG3543 thatG3739 he behavethG807 himselfG846 uncomelyG807 towardG1909 his virginG3588G3933, ifG1437 she passG1510 the flower ofG5230 her ageG5230, andG2532 needG3784 soG3779 requireG1096, let him doG4160 what he willG2309, he sinnethG264 notG3756: let them marryG1060. 37NeverthelessG1161 he thatG3739 standethG2476 stedfastG1476 inG1722 his heartG3588G2588, havingG2192 noG3361 necessityG318, butG1161 hathG2192 powerG1849 overG4012 his ownG3588G2398 willG2307, andG2532 hathG2919 soG3778 decreedG2919 inG1722 hisG846 heartG3588G2588 that he will keepG3588G5083 hisG1438 virginG3588G3933, doethG4160 wellG2573. 38SoG5620 thenG2532 heG3588 that givethG1547 her in marriageG1547 doethG4160 wellG2573; butG1161 heG3588 that givethG1547 her notG3361 in marriageG1547 doethG4160 betterG2908.
