我對沒有嫁娶的和寡婦說，他們若能維持獨身像我一樣就好。

因現今的艱難，據我看來，人不如安於現狀。你已經有了妻子，就不要求擺脫；你還沒有妻子，就不要想娶妻。

倘若有人心裏堅定，沒有不得已的事，並且由得自己作主，心裏又決定了不讓女兒結婚，這樣做也好。這樣看來，讓自己的女兒結婚固然是好，不讓她結婚更好。

神在夢中對他說：「我也知道你做這事是心中正直的；是我攔阻了你，免得你得罪我。所以我不讓你侵犯她。

門徒對耶穌說：「丈夫和妻子的關係既是這樣，倒不如不娶。」耶穌對他們說：「這話不是人人都能領受的，惟獨賜給誰，誰才能領受。

你要看好我的僕人正在哪塊田收割，就跟着女僕們去。我已經吩咐僕人不可侵犯你。你渴了，可以到水缸那裏喝僕人打來的水。」

與鄰舍之妻同寢的，也是如此，凡親近她的，難免受罰。
