爾娶非罪、處女嫁亦非罪、但若輩身必遭難、願爾免之、

娶無尤、嫁亦無尤、但若輩身遭難吾不復爾責、

爾若娶、非犯罪、童女若嫁、亦非犯罪、但如此之人、身必受難、但我不忍使爾憂愁、

雖然、男娶女嫁、究非罪孽；惟肉身上之苦痛、在所不免；吾欲免爾苦痛耳。

But if you do marry someone, you have not sinned. And if a virgin marries someone, she has not sinned. But those who marry someone will have many troubles in this life. I want to save you from this.

But if you do marry, you have not sinned, and if a betrothed woman marries, she has not sinned. Yet those who marry will have worldly troubles, and I would spare you that.

But if you do get married, it is not a sin. And if a young woman gets married, it is not a sin. However, those who get married at this time will have troubles, and I am trying to spare you those problems.

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.

But shouldest thou marry, thou hast not sinned; and if a virgin marry, she hath not sinned. Yet such shall have tribulation in the flesh: and I would spare you.

Marriage should be honored by all, and the marriage bed kept pure, for God will judge the adulterer and all the sexually immoral.

I would like you to be free from concern. An unmarried man is concerned about the Lord’s affairs— how he can please the Lord.But a married man is concerned about the affairs of this world— how he can please his wife—and his interests are divided. An unmarried woman or virgin is concerned about the Lord’s affairs: Her aim is to be devoted to the Lord in both body and spirit. But a married woman is concerned about the affairs of this world— how she can please her husband.I am saying this for your own good, not to restrict you, but that you may live in a right way in undivided devotion to the Lord.If anyone is worried that he might not be acting honorably toward the virgin he is engaged to, and if his passions are too strong and he feels he ought to marry, he should do as he wants. He is not sinning. They should get married.

I call God as my witness— and I stake my life on it— that it was in order to spare you that I did not return to Corinth.

Because of the present crisis, I think that it is good for a man to remain as he is.
