1 Corinthians 7:6-8

Revised Geneva Translation

⁶ Yet, I speak this by permission, not by commandment.

⁷ For I would that all were still as I myself. But everyone has his proper gift from God, one after this manner, and another after that.

⁸ Therefore I say to the unmarried, and to the widows, it is good for them if they remain just as I.
