The disciples said to him,“ If this is the situation between a husband and wife, it is better not to marry.”

Here is what the disciples said to him.“ If that’s the way it is between a husband and wife, it is better not to get married.”

The disciples said to him,“ If such is the case of a man with his wife, it is better not to marry.”

Jesus’ disciples then said to him,“ If this is the case, it is better not to marry!”

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

Because of the present distress, I think that it is good for a man to remain as he is.Are you bound to a wife? Do not seek to be released. Are you released from a wife? Do not seek a wife.However, if you do get married, you have not sinned, and if a virgin marries, she has not sinned. But such people will have trouble in this life, and I am trying to spare you.

They forbid marriage and demand abstinence from foods that God created to be received with gratitude by those who believe and know the truth.

A man who finds a wife finds a good thing and obtains favor from the LORD.

Now in response to the matters you wrote about:“ It is good for a man not to have sexual relations with a woman.”But because sexual immorality is so common, each man should have sexual relations with his own wife, and each woman should have sexual relations with her own husband.

Better to live on the corner of a roof than to share a house with a nagging wife.

Better to live in a wilderness than with a nagging and hot-tempered wife.

But refuse to enroll younger widows, for when they are drawn away from Christ by desire, they want to marryand will therefore receive condemnation because they have renounced their original pledge.At the same time, they also learn to be idle, going from house to house; they are not only idle, but are also gossips and busybodies, saying things they shouldn’t say.Therefore, I want younger women to marry, have children, manage their households, and give the adversary no opportunity to accuse us.For some have already turned away to follow Satan.

Drink water from your own cistern, water flowing from your own well.Should your springs flow in the streets, streams in the public squares?They should be for you alone and not for you to share with strangers.Let your fountain be blessed, and take pleasure in the wife of your youth.A loving deer, a graceful doe— let her breasts always satisfy you; be lost in her love forever.

A foolish son is his father’s ruin, and a wife’s nagging is an endless dripping.A house and wealth are inherited from fathers, but a prudent wife is from the LORD.

A wife is bound as long as her husband is living. But if her husband dies, she is free to be married to anyone she wants— only in the Lord.But she is happier if she remains as she is, in my opinion. And I think that I also have the Spirit of God.

I want you to be without concerns. The unmarried man is concerned about the things of the Lord— how he may please the Lord.But the married man is concerned about the things of the world— how he may please his wife—and his interests are divided. The unmarried woman or virgin is concerned about the things of the Lord, so that she may be holy both in body and in spirit. But the married woman is concerned about the things of the world— how she may please her husband.I am saying this for your own benefit, not to put a restraint on you, but to promote what is proper and so that you may be devoted to the Lord without distraction.

Then the LORD God said,“ It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make a helper corresponding to him.”
