1 Corinthians 7:31

Concerning The Unmarried

³⁰ and those that mourn as though they did not mourn, and those who are glad as though they were not glad, and those who buy as though they did not own a thing, ³¹ and those who are enjoying the world as though they were not entirely absorbed in it. For the outward order of this world is passing away. ³² I want you to be free from worldly worries. An unmarried man is concerned about the affairs of the Lord.
