I am saying this for your own good, not to restrict you, but that you may live in a right way in undivided devotion to the Lord.

I’m saying those things for your own good. I’m not trying to hold you back. I want you to be free to live in a way that is right. I want you to give yourselves completely to the Lord.

But if any man thinketh that he behaveth himself unseemly toward his virgin daughter, if she be past the flower of her age, and if need so requireth, let him do what he will; he sinneth not; let them marry.

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

For there are eunuchs, that were so born from their mother’s womb: and there are eunuchs, that were made eunuchs by men: and there are eunuchs, that made themselves eunuchs for the kingdom of heaven’s sake. He that is able to receive it, let him receive it.

Howbeit each man hath his own gift from God, one after this manner, and another after that.But I say to the unmarried and to widows, It is good for them if they abide even as I.But if they have not continency, let them marry: for it is better to marry than to burn.

But Martha was cumbered about much serving; and she came up to him, and said, Lord, dost thou not care that my sister did leave me to serve alone? bid her therefore that she help me.But the Lord answered and said unto her, Martha, Martha, thou art anxious and troubled about many things:but one thing is needful: for Mary hath chosen the good part, which shall not be taken away from her.
