1 Corinthians 7:28-31

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

²⁸ But if thou take a wife, thou hast not sinned. And if a virgin marry, she hath not sinned: nevertheless, such shall have tribulation of the flesh. But I spare you.

²⁹ This therefore I say, brethren; the time is short; it remaineth, that they also who have wives, be as if they had none;

³⁰ And they that weep, as though they wept not; and they that rejoice, as if they rejoiced not; and they that buy, as though they possessed not;

³¹ And they that use this world, as if they used it not: for the fashion of this world passeth away.
