1 Corinthians 7:7-9
Jubilee Bible 2000
7 For I would that all men were even as I myself. But each one has his own gift from God, one after this manner and another after that.
8 I say, therefore, to the unmarried men and widowers, It is good for them if they abide even as I.
9 But if they do not have the gift of continence, let them marry, for it is better to marry than to burn.
