25Now concerning virgins I have no commandment of the Lord: but I give my judgment, as one that hath obtained mercy of the Lord to be trustworthy.

26I think therefore that this is good by reason of the distress that is upon us, [namely,] that it is good for a man to be as he is.

27Art thou bound unto a wife? Seek not to be loosed. Art thou loosed from a wife? Seek not a wife.

28But shouldest thou marry, thou hast not sinned; and if a virgin marry, she hath not sinned. Yet such shall have tribulation in the flesh: and I would spare you.

29But this I say, brethren, the time is shortened, that henceforth both those that have wives may be as though they had none;

30and those that weep, as though they wept not; and those that rejoice, as though they rejoiced not; and those that buy, as though they possessed not;

31and those that use the world, as not using it to the full: for the fashion of this world passeth away.
