'Better' in the Bible

But if they cannot contain, let them marry: for it is better to marry than to burn.

So then he that giveth her in marriage doeth well; but he that giveth her not in marriage doeth better.

But meat commendeth us not to God: for neither, if we eat, are we the better; neither, if we eat not, are we the worse.

But I have used none of these things: neither have I written these things, that it should be so done unto me: for it were better for me to die, than that any man should make my glorying void.

Now in this that I declare unto you I praise you not, that ye come together not for the better, but for the worse.
