But for virgins I have not an order of the Lord: and I give an opinion as compassionated by the Lord to be faithful. I think therefore this to be good for the present necessity, that it is good for a man to be thus. Hast thou been bound to a wife? seek not a release. Hast thou been loosed from a wife seek thou not a wife. read more.
And if also thou marry, thou hast not sinned; and if a virgin marry, she has not sinned. And such shall have pressure to the flesh: and I spare you. And this I say, brethren, the time is restricted; as to the rest, that they also having wives should be as not having; And they weeping, as not weeping; and they rejoicing, as not rejoicing; and they buying, as not possessing. And they using this world, as not using; for the form of this world passes away. But I will you to be free from care. The unmarried cares for things of the Lord, how he shall please the Lord: And he married cares for the things of the world, how he shall please the wife. The wife and virgin have been divided. The unmarried cares for the things of the Lord, that she might be holy also in body and spirit: and she married cares for the things of the world, how she shall please her husband. And this I say for the advantage of yourselves; not that I shall cast a net upon you, but for the becoming, and occupied assiduously for the Lord without being turned away. And if any think to act unbecomingly towards his virgin, if she be past the vigor of youth, and so it ought to be, let him do what he will, he sins not; let them marry. And he who has stood firmly fixed in heart; not having necessity, and has power concerning his own will, and has judged this in his heart to keep his virgin, does well. So that he marrying does well; and he not marrying does better.
