我对没有结婚的人和寡妇说，如果他们能像我一样保持现状，对他们来说是好事。

我对着没有嫁娶的和寡妇说，若他们常像我就好。

我对没有嫁娶的和寡妇说，他们若能维持独身像我一样就好。

我对没有嫁娶的和寡妇说，他们若能维持独身像我一样就好。

至于那些未婚的和寡居的，他们若能像我一样就好了。

我现在要对未婚的人和寡妇说，他们若保持像我这样就好了；

我對着沒有嫁娶的和寡婦說，若他們常像我就好。

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。

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。

至於那些未婚的和寡居的，他們若能像我一樣就好了。

我現在要對未婚的人和寡婦說，他們若保持像我這樣就好了；

對沒有結婚的和寡婦呢、我是說，他們若像我安於素常，這對於他們倒好。

我對沒有結婚的人和寡婦說，如果他們能像我一樣保持現狀，對他們來說是好事。

我謂未嫁娶者、與嫠婦、若恆如我則善、

論曠夫嫠婦、我云、可恆如我焉、

論未嫁娶者及寡婦、我曰、若能恆如我、則於彼有益、

對於尚未結婚之人、及守寡之婦、我則曰以我為法可也。

Now to the unmarried and the widows I say: It is good for them to stay unmarried, as I do.

I speak now to those who are not married. I also speak to widows. It is good for you to stay single like me.

To the unmarried and the widows I say that it is good for them to remain single, as I am.

So I say to those who aren’t married and to widows— it’s better to stay unmarried, just as I am.

I say to the unmarried and to widows: It is good for them if they remain as I am.

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

But I say to the unmarried and to the widows: It is good for them if they remain even as I am;

But I say to the unmarried and to widows, It is good for them if they abide even as I.

I say to the unmarried and to widows: It is good for them if they remain as I am.

I say therefore to the unmarried and widows, It is good for them if they abide even as I.

To the unmarried and widows I say that it is best for them to remain as I am.

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

我希望你们一无挂虑。没有结婚的男人所挂虑的是主的事，是要怎样讨主的喜悦；

这样他就分心了。未婚女子和童贞女子挂虑主的事，以致身体和心灵都得以圣洁；而结了婚的妇女挂虑世界的事，是要怎样讨丈夫的喜悦。我说这话是为了你们自己的益处，不是要给你们套上牢笼，而是要你们行事合宜，毫无分心地殷勤服事主。

实际上，由于现今的艰难，我认为一个人保持现状是合宜的，这才是好的。你已经有妻子约束着，就不要寻求摆脱；你没有妻子束缚着，就不要寻求妻子。

我希望所有的人也都像我一样，但是每个人自己都有从神而来的恩赐：有人是这样，有人是那样。

关于你们所写的事，你们说“男人不碰女人是好事”；
