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.

妇人和处女也有分别。没有出嫁的，是为主的事挂虑，要身体、灵魂都圣洁；已经出嫁的，是为世上的事挂虑，想怎样叫丈夫喜悦。

于是，他就分心了。没有结婚的和未婚的女子是为主的事挂虑，为要身体和心灵都圣洁；已经出嫁的是为世上的事挂虑，想怎样让丈夫喜悦。

于是，他就分心了。没有结婚的和未婚的女子是为主的事挂虑，为要身体和心灵都圣洁；已经出嫁的是为世上的事挂虑，想怎样让丈夫喜悦。

难免分心。没有丈夫的妇女和处女可以专心于主的事，叫身体和心灵都圣洁；已婚的妇女挂虑世上的事，想着如何取悦丈夫。

这样他就分心了。没有结婚的妇女和守独身的女子，挂念的是主的事，好让身体和心灵都成为圣洁；但结了婚的妇女是为世上的事挂虑，想怎样去讨丈夫的欢心。

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。

婦人和處女也有分別。沒有出嫁的，是為主的事掛慮，要身體、靈魂都聖潔；已經出嫁的，是為世上的事掛慮，想怎樣叫丈夫喜悅。

於是，他就分心了。沒有結婚的和未婚的女子是為主的事掛慮，為要身體和心靈都聖潔；已經出嫁的是為世上的事掛慮，想怎樣讓丈夫喜悅。

於是，他就分心了。沒有結婚的和未婚的女子是為主的事掛慮，為要身體和心靈都聖潔；已經出嫁的是為世上的事掛慮，想怎樣讓丈夫喜悅。

難免分心。沒有丈夫的婦女和處女可以專心於主的事，叫身體和心靈都聖潔；已婚的婦女掛慮世上的事，想著如何取悅丈夫。

這樣他就分心了。沒有結婚的婦女和守獨身的女子，掛念的是主的事，好讓身體和心靈都成為聖潔；但結了婚的婦女是為世上的事掛慮，想怎樣去討丈夫的歡心。

心就分了。沒有結婚的婦人和處女、掛慮主的事、要在身體和心靈上奉獻為聖；已經結婚的、掛慮世界的事、要怎樣給丈夫喜歡。

這樣他就分心了。未婚女子和童貞女子掛慮主的事，以致身體和心靈都得以聖潔；而結了婚的婦女掛慮世界的事，是要怎樣討丈夫的喜悅。

婦與處女亦有別、無夫者慮主之事、欲身與靈皆聖、有夫者慮世之事、如何悅夫、

婦固與處子異、無夫者慮主之事、欲其體其神成聖、有夫者慮世之事、如何悅夫、

婦與童女有別、無夫者慮主之事、欲其身與神皆成聖、有夫者慮世之事、如何悅夫、

無夫者及處女、亦能專心事主、惟求神形之聖潔，有夫者則注意世故、兼欲取悅於夫矣。

His concerns pull him in two directions. A single woman or a virgin is concerned about the Lord’s matters. She wants to serve the Lord with both body and spirit. But a married woman is concerned about the matters of this world. She wants to know how she can please her husband.

and his interests are divided. And the unmarried or betrothed woman is anxious about the things of the Lord, how to be holy in body and spirit. But the married woman is anxious about worldly things, how to please her husband.

His interests are divided. In the same way, a woman who is no longer married or has never been married can be devoted to the Lord and holy in body and in spirit. But a married woman has to think about her earthly responsibilities and how to please her husband.

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.

and his interests are divided. The woman who is unmarried, and the virgin, is concerned about the things of the Lord, that she may be holy both in body and spirit; but one who is married is concerned about the things of the world, how she may please her husband.

There is a difference between a wife and a virgin. The unmarried woman cares about the things of the Lord, that she may be holy both in body and in spirit. But she who is married cares about the things of the world— how she may please her husband.

and is divided. So also the woman that is unmarried and the virgin is careful for the things of the Lord, that she may be holy both in body and in spirit: but she that is married is careful for the things of the world, how she may please her husband.

But Martha was distracted by all the preparations that had to be made. She came to him and asked,“ Lord, don’t you care that my sister has left me to do the work by myself? Tell her to help me!”“ Martha, Martha,” the Lord answered,“ you are worried and upset about many things,but few things are needed— or indeed only one. Mary has chosen what is better, and it will not be taken away from her.”

I eagerly expect and hope that I will in no way be ashamed, but will have sufficient courage so that now as always Christ will be exalted in my body, whether by life or by death.

There was also a prophet, Anna, the daughter of Penuel, of the tribe of Asher. She was very old; she had lived with her husband seven years after her marriage,and then was a widow until she was eighty-four. She never left the temple but worshiped night and day, fasting and praying.

Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God— this is your true and proper worship.Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is— his good, pleasing and perfect will.

Besides everything else, I face daily the pressure of my concern for all the churches.

you were bought at a price. Therefore honor God with your bodies.

See what this godly sorrow has produced in you: what earnestness, what eagerness to clear yourselves, what indignation, what alarm, what longing, what concern, what readiness to see justice done. At every point you have proved yourselves to be innocent in this matter.So even though I wrote to you, it was neither on account of the one who did the wrong nor on account of the injured party, but rather that before God you could see for yourselves how devoted to us you are.

May God himself, the God of peace, sanctify you through and through. May your whole spirit, soul and body be kept blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.

This is a trustworthy saying. And I want you to stress these things, so that those who have trusted in God may be careful to devote themselves to doing what is good. These things are excellent and profitable for everyone.

( If anyone does not know how to manage his own family, how can he take care of God’s church?)

Do not offer any part of yourself to sin as an instrument of wickedness, but rather offer yourselves to God as those who have been brought from death to life; and offer every part of yourself to him as an instrument of righteousness.

Thanks be to God, who put into the heart of Titus the same concern I have for you.
