1 Corinthians 7:6-8
Darby Translation
6 But this I say, as consenting [to], not as commanding [it].
7 Now I wish all men to be even as myself: but every one has his own gift of God: one man thus, and another thus.
8 But I say to the unmarried and to the widows, It is good for them that they remain even as I.
