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.

32But I would have you to be free from cares. He that is unmarried is careful for the things of the Lord, how he may please the Lord:

33but he that is married is careful for the things of the world, how he may please his wife,

34and is divided. [So] also the woman that is unmarried and the virgin is careful for the things of the Lord, that she may be holy both in body and in spirit: but she that is married is careful for the things of the world, how she may please her husband.

35And this I say for your own profit; not that I may cast a snare upon you, but for that which is seemly, and that ye may attend upon the Lord without distraction.
