1 Corinthians 7:33

Concerning The Unmarried

³² But I want you to be free from concern. One who is unmarried is concerned about the affairs of the Lord, how he may please the Lord; ³³ but a married man is concerned about the affairs of the world, how he may please his wife, ³⁴ and his interests are divided. The unmarried woman, and the virgin, is concerned about the affairs of the Lord, that she may be holy both in body and spirit; but the married woman is concerned about the affairs of the world, how she may please her husband.
