1 Corinthians 7:34

---

← 1 Corinthians 7:33	1 Corinthians 7:34 (KJV)	1 Corinthians 7:35 →
But he that is married careth for the things that are of the world, how he may please [his] wife.	There is difference [also] between a wife and a virgin. The unmarried woman careth for the things of the Lord, that she may be holy both in body and in spirit: but she that is married careth for the things of the world, how she may please [her] husband.	And this I speak for your own profit; not that I may cast a snare upon you, but for that which is comely, and that ye may attend upon the Lord without distraction.
