But she is happier if she stays as she is, in my judgment, and I think that I also have God’s Spirit.

然而按我的意见，若常守节更有福气。我也想自己是被神的灵感动了。

然而，按我的意见，她若能守节就更有福气。我想我自己也有上帝的灵的感动。

然而，按我的意见，她若能守节就更有福气。我想我自己也有神的灵的感动。

然而，照我的意见，她若能不再婚就更有福了。我想自己也是受了上帝的灵感动才说这番话的。

然而照我的意见，倘若她能守节，就更有福了。我想我这话也是神的灵感动的。

但是照我的意见，如果她能保持现状，就更蒙福了。我想我也有神的灵。

然而按我的意見，她若安於這樣、更為有福：我想我有上帝的靈指引着。

我意不嫁更為有福、且思我有上帝之神也、

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.

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

But she is happier if she remains as she is, according to my judgment— and I think I also have the Spirit of God.

But she is happier if she abide as she is, after my judgment: and I think that I also have the Spirit of God.

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

But she is happier if she so abide, after my judgment: and I think also that I have the Spirit of God.

But in my opinion, she will be happier if she remains as she is– and I think that I too have the Spirit of God!

Now concerning virgins, I have no commandment from the Lord, but I give my judgment as one who has obtained mercy from the Lord to be trustworthy.Therefore I think that because of the distress that is on us, that it’s good for a man to remain as he is.

But this I say by way of concession, not of commandment.

For even if I boast somewhat abundantly concerning our authority, which the Lord gave for building you up, and not for casting you down, I will not be ashamed,that I may not seem as if I desire to terrify you by my letters.For,“ His letters”, they say,“ are weighty and strong, but his bodily presence is weak, and his speech is despised.”

But I say to the unmarried and to widows, it is good for them if they remain even as I am.

What!? Was it from you that the word of God went out? Or did it come to you alone?If any man thinks himself to be a prophet, or spiritual, let him recognize the things which I write to you, that they are the commandment of the Lord.

I have become foolish in boasting. You compelled me, for I ought to have been commended by you, for in nothing was I inferior to the very best apostles, though I am nothing.

Regard the patience of our Lord as salvation; even as our beloved brother Paul also, according to the wisdom given to him, wrote to you,as also in all of his letters, speaking in them of these things. In those, there are some things that are hard to understand, which the ignorant and unsettled twist, as they also do to the other Scriptures, to their own destruction.

Am I not free? Am I not an apostle? Haven’t I seen Jesus Christ, our Lord? Aren’t you my work in the Lord?If to others I am not an apostle, yet at least I am to you; for you are the seal of my apostleship in the Lord.My defense to those who examine me is this:

Now concerning the things about which you wrote to me: it is good for a man not to touch a woman.

Therefore he who rejects this doesn’t reject man, but God, who has also given his Holy Spirit to you.

This I say for your own profit; not that I may ensnare you, but for that which is appropriate, and that you may attend to the Lord without distraction.
