我意不嫁幸甚、我思所言、感於上帝之神然也、

然我意若能恆守不嫁、更為有福、我言此、自思亦感於天主之神、

然依吾之見、若能守寡、則更為有福；竊思此亦天主聖神之意也。

In my judgment, she is happier if she stays as she is— and I think that I too have the Spirit of God.

In my opinion, she is happier if she stays single. And I also think that I am led by the Spirit of God in saying this.

Yet in my judgment she is happier if she remains as she is. And I think that I too have the Spirit of God.

But in my opinion it would be better for her to stay single, and I think I am giving you counsel from God’s Spirit when I say this.

But she is happier if she remains as she is, in my opinion. And I think that I also have the Spirit of God.

論及處女、我未奉主命、惟蒙主矜恤以為忠、則以己意示之、我意因今時之艱、守其素者為善、

我言此、許也、非命也、

主賜我權、乃建爾、非覆爾、我雖過誇、亦無所愧焉、我言此、免似以書驚爾、或謂我書嚴厲、晤對時則身柔言鄙、

我謂未嫁娶者、與嫠婦、若恆如我則善、

夫上帝之道、由爾出乎、抑獨授爾乎、○有自以為先知、或屬聖神者、當知我所書、乃主之命也、

我為愚矣、緣爾逼我、蓋我當為爾所舉、我雖不足數、而不亞於至大使徒、

且視我主之寬忍為拯救、如我儕所愛之兄弟保羅、依所賦之智、嘗以書遺爾、彼之諸書亦論及此、中有難明者、而不學不固之輩強解之、於他經亦然、乃自取淪亡也、○

我非自由乎、非使徒乎、非曾見我主耶穌乎、爾曹非我宗主之工乎、我於他人、雖非使徒、於爾曹則誠是、蓋爾在主中、即我為使徒之印證也、有詰我者、我以此白之、

論及爾所書者、則男不近女為善、

故拒之者非拒人、乃拒賜聖神之上帝也、○

我言此為益爾、非縛爾、乃所宜然、俾爾專於事主、心無紛擾、
