1 Corinthians 7:35 in Context — 1 Corinthians 7

33 Porém o que é casado se preocupa com as coisas do mundo, como irá agradar à mulher.

34 A mulher casada e a virgem são diferentes: a que está para casar tem preocupação com as coisas do Senhor, para ser santa, tanto de corpo como de Espírito; mas a casada tem preocupação com as coisas do mundo, como irá agradar ao marido.

35 Porém digo isto para vosso próprio proveito; não para vos enlaçar, mas para [vos guiar] ao que é decente, e servirem ao Senhor sem distração.

36 Mas se alguém lhe parece que indecentemente trata com sua virgem, se ela passar da idade da juventude, e assim convier se fazer, que tal faça o que quiser, não peca, casem-se.

37 Porém o que está firme em [seu] coração, não tendo necessidade, mas tem poder sobre sua própria vontade, e isto decidiu em seu próprio coração, de guardar sua virgem, faz bem.
