1 Corinthians 7:32-34

Expanded Bible

³² I want you to be free from ·worry [concern]. A man who is not married is ·busy [concerned] with the Lord’s work, trying to please the Lord. ³³ But a man who is married is ·busy [concerned] with things of the world, trying to please his wife. ³⁴ He ·must think about two things—pleasing his wife and pleasing the Lord [^Lis divided]. A woman who is not married or a ·girl who has never married [or betrothed woman; ^Lvirgin] is ·busy [concerned] with the ·Lord’s work [^Lthings of the Lord]. She wants to be holy in body and spirit. But a married woman is ·busy [concerned] with things of the world, as to how she can please her husband.
