虽然我希望人人都像我一样独身，但每个人从上帝所领受的恩赐不同，有的是这样，有的是那样。

我愿意众人像我一样；只是各人领受神的恩赐，一个是这样，一个是那样。

我愿众人像我一样；但是各人都有来自上帝的恩赐，一个是这样，一个是那样。

我愿众人像我一样；但是各人都有来自神的恩赐，一个是这样，一个是那样。

我願眾皆如我、但各得其賜於上帝、一如此、一如彼、○

吾願爾眾如我焉、但人得恩賜於上帝、各有不同、

我願眾人皆若我然、但人得恩賜於天主、各有不同、一如此、一如彼焉、○

依我心意、固願人人能如我也。惟各人所秉賦於天主者、不能盡同；甲長於此、乙長於彼、固不可相提並論也。

I wish that all of you were as I am. But each of you has your own gift from God; one has this gift, another has that.

I wish all of you were single like me. But you each have your own gift from God. One has this gift, and another has that one.

I wish that all were as I myself am. But each has his own gift from God, one of one kind and one of another.

But I wish everyone were single, just as I am. Yet each person has a special gift from God, of one kind or another.

I wish that all people were as I am. But each has his own gift from God, one person has this gift, another has that.

Yet I wish that all men were even as I myself am. However, each has his own gift from God, one in this way, and another in that.

For I wish that all men were even as I myself. But each one has his own gift from God, one in this manner and another in that.

Yet I would that all men were even as I myself. Howbeit each man hath his own gift from God, one after this manner, and another after that.

I wish that all people were just like me. But each has his own gift from God, one person in this way and another in that way.

For I would that all men were even as I myself. But every man hath his proper gift of God, one after this manner, and another after that.

I wish that everyone was as I am. But each has his own gift from God, one this way, another that.

Yet I wish that all men were like me. However each man has his own gift from God, one of this kind, and another of that kind.

耶稣说：“这话不是每个人都能接受的，只有那些得到这种恩赐的人才能接受。人不结婚的原因很多，有些是因为先天的缺陷，有些是被人阉了，也有些是为了天国而自己放弃结婚的权利。谁能接受，就让他接受吧。”

我们照所得的恩典各有不同的恩赐。说预言的，要按着信心的程度说预言；

难道我们没有权利像主的兄弟、彼得和其他使徒一样，娶信主的姊妹为妻，一同出入吗？

恩赐各有不同，但圣灵是同一位。

至于那些未婚的和寡居的，他们若能像我一样就好了。

这一切都是同一位圣灵所赐的，是祂按自己的旨意分别赐给各人的。

但是，我完全没有使用这权利，如今我谈这些事，并不是要你们这样待我。因为我宁死也不要让人抹杀我所夸耀的。

保罗说：“不论话多话少，我求上帝不仅使你，也使今天在座的各位都能像我一样，只是不要像我这样带着锁链。”
