1 Corinthians 7:7-9
New American Standard Bible
7 [a]Yet I wish that all [b]men were (A)even as I myself am. However, (B)each has his own gift from God, one in this way, and another in that.
8 But I say to the unmarried and to widows that it is (C)good for them if they remain (D)even as I. 9 But if they do not have self-control, (E)let them marry; for it is better to marry than to burn with passion.

7 For (A)I wish that all men were even as I myself. But each one has his own gift from God, one in this manner and another in that.
8 But I say to the unmarried and to the widows: (B)It is good for them if they remain even as I am; 9 but (C)if they cannot exercise self-control, let them marry. For it is better to marry than to burn with passion.
