1 Corinthians 7:29 in Context — 1 Corinthians 7

27 ¿Estás ligado á mujer? no procures soltarte. ¿Estás suelto de mujer? no procures mujer.

28 Mas también si tomares mujer, no pecaste; y si la doncella se casare, no pecó: pero aflicción de carne tendrán los tales: mas yo os dejo.

29 Esto empero digo, hermanos, que el tiempo es corto: lo que resta es, que los que tienen mujeres sean como los que no las tienen;

30 Y los que lloran, como los que no lloran; y los que se huelgan, como los que no se huelgan; y los que compran, como los que no poseen;

31 Y los que usan de este mundo, como los que no usan: porque la apariencia de este mundo se pasa.
