1 Corinthians 7:33 Context
31And they that vse this world, as not abusing it: for the fashion of this world passeth away. 32But I would haue you without carefulnesse. He that is vnmarried, careth for the things that belōgeth to the Lord, how he may please the Lord: 33But hee that is maried, careth for the things that are of the world, how he may please his wife. 34There is difference also between a wife and a virgin: the vnmaried woman careth for the things of the Lord, that shee may be holy, both in body and in spirit: but she that is married, careth for the things of the worlde, how shee may please her husband. 35And this I speake for your owne profite, not that I may cast a snare vpon you, but for that which is comely, and that you may attend vpon the Lord without distraction.
