1 Corinthians 7:32-35

Evangelical Heritage Version

³² I would like you to be free from concern. The unmarried man is concerned about the things of the Lord and thinks about how to please the Lord. ³³ But the married man is concerned about the things of the world and thinks about how to please his wife, ³⁴ and so he is divided. The unmarried woman and the virgin are concerned about the things of the Lord, so as to be holy both in body and in spirit. But the married woman is concerned about the things of the world and thinks about how to please her husband. ³⁵ I am saying this for your own benefit, not to impose a restriction, but to encourage honorable, undistracted devotion to the Lord.
