1 Corinthians 7:25-40

Now
<1161>
concerning
<4012>
virgins
<3933>
I have
<2192> (5719)
no
<3756>
commandment
<2003>
of the Lord
<2962>_:
yet
<1161>
I give
<1325> (5719)
my judgment
<1106>_,
as
<5613>
one that hath obtained mercy
<1653> (5772)
of
<5259>
the Lord
<2962>
to be
<1511> (5750)
faithful
<4103>_.
I suppose
<3543> (5719)
therefore
<3767>
that this
<5124>
is
<5225> (5721)
good
<2570>
for
<1223>
the present
<1764> (5761)
distress
<318>_,
[I say], that
<3754>
[it is] good
<2570>
for a man
<444>
so
<3779>
to be
<1511> (5750)_.
{distress: or, necessity}
Art thou bound
<1210> (5769)
unto a wife
<1135>_?
seek
<2212> (5720)
not
<3361>
to be loosed
<3080> (5769)_.
Art thou loosed
<3089>
from
<575>
a wife
<1135>_?
seek
<2212> (5720)
not
<3361>
a wife
<1135>_.
But
<1161>
and
<2532>
if
<1437>
thou marry
<1060> (5661)_,
thou hast
<264> (0)
not
<3756>
sinned
<264> (5627)_;
and
<2532>
if
<1437>
a virgin
<3933>
marry
<1060> (5661)_,
she hath
<264> (0)
not
<3756>
sinned
<264> (5627)_.
Nevertheless
<1161>
such
<5108>
shall have
<2192> (5692)
trouble
<2347>
in the flesh
<4561>_:
but
<1161>
I
<1473>
spare
<5339> (5736)
you
<5216>_.
But
<1161>
this
<5124>
I say
<5346> (5748)_,
brethren
<80>_,
the time
<2540>
[is] short
<4958> (5772)_:
it remaineth
<2076> (5748) <3063>_,
that
<2443>
both
<2532>
they that have
<2192> (5723)
wives
<1135>
be
<5600> (5753)
as though
<5613>
they had
<2192> (5723)
none
<3361>_;
And
<2532>
they that weep
<2799> (5723)_,
as
<5613>
though they wept
<2799> (5723)
not
<3361>_;
and
<2532>
they that rejoice
<5463> (5723)_,
as
<5613>
though they rejoiced
<5463> (5723)
not
<3361>_;
and
<2532>
they that buy
<59> (5723)_,
as
<5613>
though they possessed
<2722> (5723)
not
<3361>_;
And
<2532>
they that use
<5530> (5740)
this
<5127>
world
<2889>_,
as
<5613>
not
<3361>
abusing
<2710> (5740)
[it]: for
<1063>
the fashion
<4976>
of this
<5129>
world
<2889>
passeth away
<3855> (5719)_.
But
<1161>
I would have
<1511> (5750) <2309> (5719)
you
<5209>
without carefulness
<275>_.
He that is unmarried
<22>
careth
<3309> (5719)
for the things that belong to
<3588>
the Lord
<2962>_,
how
<4459>
he may please
<700> (5692)
the Lord
<2962>_:
{that belong...: Gr. of the Lord}
But
<1161>
he that is married
<1060> (5660)
careth
<3309> (5719)
for the things that are
<3588>
of the world
<2889>_,
how
<4459>
he may please
<700> (5692)
[his] wife
<1135>_.
There is difference [also] between
<3307> (5769)
a wife
<1135>
and
<2532>
a virgin
<3933>_.
The unmarried woman
<22>
careth for
<3309> (5719)
the things
<3588>
of the Lord
<2962>_,
that
<2443>
she may be
<5600> (5753)
holy
<40>
both
<2532>
in body
<4983>
and
<2532>
in spirit
<4151>_:
but
<1161>
she that is married
<1060> (5660)
careth
<3309> (5719)
for the things
<3588>
of the world
<2889>_,
how
<4459>
she may please
<700> (5692)
[her] husband
<435>_.
And
<1161>
this
<5124>
I speak
<3004> (5719)
for
<4314>
your
<5216>
own
<846>
profit
<4851> (5723)_;
not
<3756>
that
<2443>
I may cast
<1911> (5632)
a snare
<1029>
upon you
<5213>_,
but
<235>
for that which
<4314>
is comely
<2158>_,
and
<2532>
that ye may attend upon
<2145>
the Lord
<2962>
without distraction
<563>_.
But
<1161>
if any man
<1536>
think
<3543> (5719)
that he behaveth himself uncomely
<807> (5721)
toward
<1909>
his
<846>
virgin
<3933>_,
if
<1437>
she pass the flower of [her] age
<5230> <5600> (5753)_,
and
<2532>
need
<3784> (5719)
so
<3779>
require
<1096> (5738)_,
let him do
<4160> (5720)
what
<3739>
he will
<2309> (5719)_,
he sinneth
<264> (5719)
not
<3756>_:
let them marry
<1060> (5720)_.
Nevertheless
<1161>
he
<3739>
that standeth
<2476> (5707) (5758)
stedfast
<1476>
in
<1722>
his heart
<2588>_,
having
<2192> (5723)
no
<3361>
necessity
<318>_,
but
<1161>
hath
<2192> (5719)
power
<1849>
over
<4012>
his own
<2398>
will
<2307>_,
and
<2532>
hath
<2919> (0)
so
<5124>
decreed
<2919> (5758)
in
<1722>
his
<846>
heart
<2588>
that he will keep
<5083> (5721)
his
<1438>
virgin
<3933>_,
doeth
<4160> (5719)
well
<2573>_.
So
<5620>
then
<2532>
he that giveth [her] in marriage
<1547> (5723)
doeth
<4160> (5719)
well
<2573>_;
but
<1161>
he that giveth [her]
<1547> (0)
not
<3361>
in marriage
<1547> (5723)
doeth
<4160> (5719)
better
<2908>_.
The wife
<1135>
is bound
<1210> (5769)
by the law
<3551> <1909>
as long
<5550>
as
<3745>
her
<846>
husband
<435>
liveth
<2198> (5719)_;
but
<1161>
if
<1437>
her
<846>
husband
<435>
be dead
<2837> (5686)_,
she is
<2076> (5748)
at liberty
<1658>
to be married
<1060> (5683)
to whom
<3739>
she will
<2309> (5719)_;
only
<3440>
in
<1722>
the Lord
<2962>_.
But
<1161>
she is
<2076> (5748)
happier
<3107>
if
<1437>
she
<3306> (0)
so
<3779>
abide
<3306> (5661)_,
after
<2596>
my
<1699>
judgment
<1106>_:
and
<1161>
I think
<1380> (5719)
also
<2504>
that I have
<2192> (5721)
the Spirit
<4151>
of God
<2316>_.
