1 Corinthians 7:7-9

International Children’s Bible

⁷ I wish everyone were like me. But each person has his own gift from God. One has one gift, another has another gift.

⁸ Now for those who are not married and for the widows I say this: It is good for them to stay single as I am. ⁹ But if they cannot control their bodies, then they should marry. It is better to marry than to burn with lust.
