對沒有結婚的和寡婦呢、我是說，他們若像我安於素常，這對於他們倒好。

我以為最好是：為了現在艱難的緣故、一個人還是守素安常的好。你有妻子束縛着麼？別求解脫了；你得解脫離開妻子了麼？別求得妻子了。

但若有人心裏已經立定，既沒有不得已的事，對自己的意思又有主權，自己心裏也已決定要保守自己的處女朋友：這樣行也好。所以同自己的處女朋友結婚的固然好，不同她結婚的更好。

上帝對亞比米勒夢中說：『我也知道你作這事乃心裏端正，因此我也攔阻你犯罪得罪了我，所以我不容你和她有接觸。

門徒對耶穌說：『人和妻子的關係既是這樣，結婚就無益了！』耶穌對他們說：『這話不是一切人都能接受的，乃是賜給誰，誰就能接受。

你要注目我的僕人在哪塊田地收割，你總要跟着女僕們到哪塊田地去。我不是吩咐了僮僕們不可觸犯着你麼？你若渴了，儘可以到器皿那裏去喝僮僕們打來的水。』

進去找鄰舍妻子的、也是如此；凡和她有性接觸的必難免於受刑罰。
