## 1 Corinthians 7:25-31 in Context (Verses 22–34 KJV)
 
 [22 ](/kjv/1-corinthians/7/22) For he that is called in the Lord, *being* a servant, is the Lord’s freeman: likewise also he that is called, *being* free, is Christ’s servant.
 
 [23 ](/kjv/1-corinthians/7/23) Ye are bought with a price; be not ye the servants of men.
 
 [24 ](/kjv/1-corinthians/7/24) Brethren, let every man, wherein he is called, therein abide with God.
 
 [25 ](/kjv/1-corinthians/7/25) Now concerning virgins I have no commandment of the Lord: yet I give my judgment, as one that hath obtained mercy of the Lord to be faithful.
 
 [26 ](/kjv/1-corinthians/7/26) I suppose therefore that this is good for the present distress, *I say*, that *it is* good for a man so to be.
 
 [27 ](/kjv/1-corinthians/7/27) Art thou bound unto a wife? seek not to be loosed. Art thou loosed from a wife? seek not a wife.
 
 [28 ](/kjv/1-corinthians/7/28) But and if thou marry, thou hast not sinned; and if a virgin marry, she hath not sinned. Nevertheless such shall have trouble in the flesh: but I spare you.
 
 [29 ](/kjv/1-corinthians/7/29) But this I say, brethren, the time *is* short: it remaineth, that both they that have wives be as though they had none;
 
 [30 ](/kjv/1-corinthians/7/30) And they that weep, as though they wept not; and they that rejoice, as though they rejoiced not; and they that buy, as though they possessed not;
 
 [31 ](/kjv/1-corinthians/7/31) And they that use this world, as not abusing *it*: for the fashion of this world passeth away.
 
 [32 ](/kjv/1-corinthians/7/32) But I would have you without carefulness. He that is unmarried careth for the things that belong to the Lord, how he may please the Lord:
 
 [33 ](/kjv/1-corinthians/7/33) But he that is married careth for the things that are of the world, how he may please *his* wife.
 
 [34 ](/kjv/1-corinthians/7/34) 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.
