1 Corinthians 7:28-33

New International Version

²⁸ But if you do marry, you have not sinned;^(A) and if a virgin marries, she has not sinned. But those who marry will face many troubles in this life, and I want to spare you this.

²⁹ What I mean, brothers and sisters, is that the time is short.^(B) From now on those who have wives should live as if they do not; ³⁰ those who mourn, as if they did not; those who are happy, as if they were not; those who buy something, as if it were not theirs to keep; ³¹ those who use the things of the world, as if not engrossed in them. For this world in its present form is passing away.^(C)

³² I would like you to be free from concern. An unmarried man is concerned about the Lord’s affairs^(D)—how he can please the Lord. ³³ But a married man is concerned about the affairs of this world—how he can please his wife—
