Mga Tagubilin tungkol sa Pag-aasawa
7 Tungkol naman sa mga bagay na isinulat ninyo: “Mabuti para sa isang lalaki na huwag gumalaw ng babae.” 2 Subalit dahil sa laganap na pakikiapid, ang bawat lalaki ay dapat magkaroon ng sarili niyang asawa, at gayundin ang bawat babae. 3 Dapat ibigay ng lalaki sa kanyang asawa ang karapatan nito bilang asawa, at gayundin ang babae sa kanyang asawa. 4 Sapagkat hindi na ang babae ang nagpapasya tungkol sa kanyang katawan, kundi ang kanyang asawa, at hindi na rin ang lalaki ang nagpapasya tungkol sa kanyang sariling katawan, kundi ang kanyang asawa. 5 Huwag ninyong ipagkait ang inyong mga sarili sa isa't isa, malibang may kasunduan kayo sa loob ng maikling panahon upang mailaan ang inyong mga sarili sa pananalangin. Pagkatapos nito ay magsiping kayong muli, upang hindi kayo matukso ni Satanas dahil sa kakulangan ninyo ng pagpipigil sa sarili. 6 Ngunit sinasabi ko ito bilang panukala at hindi bilang utos. 7 Nais ko sanang ang lahat ay maging katulad ko. Subalit ang bawat isa'y may kanya-kanyang kaloob mula sa Diyos, ang isa'y ganito at ang iba naman ay ganoon.
8 Ngunit sinasabi ko sa mga walang asawa at sa mga babaing balo: mabuti para sa kanila kung sila'y mananatiling kagaya ko. 9 Ngunit kung sila'y hindi makapagpigil, ay magsipag-asawa sila, sapagkat mas mabuti pang mag-asawa kaysa mag-apoy sa pagnanasa. 10 At sa mga may asawa ay nagtatagubilin ako, hindi ako, kundi ang Panginoon, na huwag hiwalayan ng babae ang kanyang asawa. 11 Ngunit kung siya'y humiwalay, manatili siyang walang asawa, kung hindi naman ay makipagkasundo siya sa kanyang asawa. At hindi dapat iwan ng lalaki ang kanyang asawa. 12 Ngunit sa iba ay ako mismo ang nagsasabi at hindi ang Panginoon, na kung sinumang kapatid na lalaki ay may asawang di-mananampalataya, at pumapayag itong mamuhay na kasama niya, huwag niya itong hiwalayan. 13 At kung ang babae ay may asawang di-mananampalataya, at pumapayag ang lalaking ito na mamuhay na kasama niya, huwag niyang hiwalayan ang kanyang asawa. 14 Sapagkat ang lalaking di-mananampalataya ay nagiging banal dahil sa kanyang asawa, at ang babaing di-mananampalataya ay nagiging banal dahil sa kanyang asawa. Kung hindi gayon, ang mga anak ninyo ay marurumi, ngunit ngayon sila'y mga banal. 15 Ngunit kung humiwalay ang di-mananampalataya, hayaan siyang humiwalay; ang kapatid na lalaki o ang kapatid na babae ay hindi dapat paalipin sa gayong kalagayan, sapagkat tayo ay tinawag ng Diyos tungo sa kapayapaan. 16 Hindi mo ba nalalaman, babae, na baka ikaw ang magliligtas sa iyong asawa? At hindi mo ba nalalaman, lalaki, na baka ikaw ang magliligtas sa iyong asawa?
Mamuhay ayon sa Pagkatawag ng Diyos
17 Hayaang mamuhay ang bawat isa ayon sa itinakda sa kanya ng Panginoon, at sa kalagayan niya noong tawagin siya ng Diyos. Ganito ang itinatagubilin ko sa lahat ng mga iglesya. 18 Natuli na ba ang sinuman nang siya'y tawagin? Huwag niyang alisin ang mga tanda ng pagtutuli. Hindi pa ba natuli ang sinuman nang siya'y tawagin? Huwag na siyang magpatuli. 19 Walang kabuluhan ang pagiging tuli o hindi tuli; ang mahalaga ay ang pagtupad sa mga utos ng Diyos. 20 Ang bawat isa ay hayaang manatili sa kalagayan nang siya ay tawagin. 21 Isa ka bang alipin nang ikaw ay tawagin? Wala kang dapat alalahanin. Subalit kung magagawa mong maging malaya ay gamitin mo ang pagkakataon. 22 Sapagkat ang tinawag na maging kaisa ng Panginoon nang siya'y alipin ay malaya sa Panginoon, at ang tinawag naman nang siya'y malaya ay alipin ni Cristo. 23 Mahal ang pagkabili sa inyo, kaya huwag kayong maging mga alipin ng mga tao. 24 Mga kapatid, hayaang manatili ang bawat isa sa kalagayan noong siya'y tawagin ng Diyos.
Sa mga Walang Asawa at mga Balo
25 At tungkol naman sa mga walang asawa[a] ay wala akong utos mula sa Panginoon, ngunit nagbibigay ako ng kuru-kuro bilang isang taong mapagkakatiwalaan dahil sa habag ng Panginoon. 26 Sa palagay ko, dahil sa kagipitang kinakaharap ngayon, makabubuti sa isang tao ang manatili sa kanyang kalagayan. 27 Nakatali ka ba sa asawang-babae? Huwag mong sikaping makalaya. Nakalaya ka ba mula sa asawa? Huwag kang nang humanap ng asawa. 28 Ngunit kung ikaw ay mag-aasawa, hindi ka nagkakasala, at kung ang isang dalaga ay mag-asawa, hindi siya nagkakasala. Subalit ang mga may asawa ay daranas ng kahirapan sa buhay[b] at iniiwas ko lamang kayo sa mga iyon. 29 Ang ibig kong sabihin, mga kapatid, ay maikli na ang panahon. Mula ngayon, ang mga may asawa ay mamuhay tulad sa walang asawa; 30 at ang mga umiiyak ay maging katulad ng mga hindi umiiyak, at ang mga natutuwa ay maging katulad ng mga hindi natutuwa; at ang mga bumibili ay maging katulad ng mga walang pag-aari, 31 at ang mga gumagamit ng mga bagay ng sanlibutan ay maging katulad ng mga hindi lubos na gumagamit nito. Sapagkat lumilipas ang anyo ng sanlibutang ito. 32 At nais kong mawalan kayo ng mga alalahanin. Ang lalaking walang asawa ay nag-aalala tungkol sa mga bagay ng Panginoon, kung paano niya mabibigyang-kasiyahan ang Panginoon. 33 Ngunit ang lalaking may asawa ay nag-aalala tungkol sa mga bagay ng sanlibutan, kung paano niya mabibigyang-kasiyahan ang kanyang asawa, 34 at nahahati ang kanyang pag-iisip. Ang babaing walang asawa at ang birhen ay nag-aalala tungkol sa mga bagay ng Panginoon, kung paano magiging banal sa katawan at sa espiritu, ngunit ang babaing may asawa ay nag-aalala tungkol sa mga bagay ng sanlibutan, kung paano niya bibigyang-kasiyahan ang kanyang asawa. 35 Sinasabi ko ito para sa inyong kapakanan, hindi upang paghigpitan kayo, kundi upang magkaroon kayo ng kaayusan at makapaglingkod sa Panginoon nang walang sagabal.
36 Ngunit kung iniisip ng sinuman na hindi tama ang kanyang inaasal sa kanyang dalaga[c] na nasa hustong gulang na, hayaang mangyari ang gusto niya, hayaan silang magpakasal—walang masama rito. 37 Subalit sinumang may matibay na paninindigan sa kanyang puso, at hindi nakakaramdam ng pangangailangan kundi napipigil niya ang kanyang sariling kagustuhan at nagpasya sa kanyang puso na panatilihin siya bilang kanyang dalaga, mabuti ang kanyang ginagawa. 38 Kaya't ang nagpapakasal sa kanyang kasintahan ay gumagawa ng mabuti at ang hindi naman nagpapakasal ay gumagawa ng mas mabuti.
39 Ang asawang babae ay nakatali habang nabubuhay ang kanyang asawa. Ngunit kung namayapa na ang kanyang asawa, malaya na siyang mag-asawa sa kanino mang nais niya, basta sa kapwa nasa Panginoon. 40 Ngunit sa aking palagay, mas maligaya siya kung mananatili siya sa kanyang kalagayan. Iniisip ko rin naman na taglay ko ang Espiritu ng Diyos.

New International Version
Concerning Married Life
7 Now for the matters you wrote about: “It is good for a man not to have sexual relations with a woman.”(A) 2 But since sexual immorality is occurring, each man should have sexual relations with his own wife, and each woman with her own husband. 3 The husband should fulfill his marital duty to his wife,(B) and likewise the wife to her husband. 4 The wife does not have authority over her own body but yields it to her husband. In the same way, the husband does not have authority over his own body but yields it to his wife. 5 Do not deprive each other except perhaps by mutual consent and for a time,(C) so that you may devote yourselves to prayer. Then come together again so that Satan(D) will not tempt you(E) because of your lack of self-control. 6 I say this as a concession, not as a command.(F) 7 I wish that all of you were as I am.(G) But each of you has your own gift from God; one has this gift, another has that.(H)
8 Now to the unmarried[a] and the widows I say: It is good for them to stay unmarried, as I do.(I) 9 But if they cannot control themselves, they should marry,(J) for it is better to marry than to burn with passion.
10 To the married I give this command (not I, but the Lord): A wife must not separate from her husband.(K) 11 But if she does, she must remain unmarried or else be reconciled to her husband.(L) And a husband must not divorce his wife.
12 To the rest I say this (I, not the Lord):(M) If any brother has a wife who is not a believer and she is willing to live with him, he must not divorce her. 13 And if a woman has a husband who is not a believer and he is willing to live with her, she must not divorce him. 14 For the unbelieving husband has been sanctified through his wife, and the unbelieving wife has been sanctified through her believing husband. Otherwise your children would be unclean, but as it is, they are holy.(N)
15 But if the unbeliever leaves, let it be so. The brother or the sister is not bound in such circumstances; God has called us to live in peace.(O) 16 How do you know, wife, whether you will save(P) your husband?(Q) Or, how do you know, husband, whether you will save your wife?
Concerning Change of Status
17 Nevertheless, each person should live as a believer in whatever situation the Lord has assigned to them, just as God has called them.(R) This is the rule I lay down in all the churches.(S) 18 Was a man already circumcised when he was called? He should not become uncircumcised. Was a man uncircumcised when he was called? He should not be circumcised.(T) 19 Circumcision is nothing and uncircumcision is nothing.(U) Keeping God’s commands is what counts. 20 Each person should remain in the situation they were in when God called them.(V)
21 Were you a slave when you were called? Don’t let it trouble you—although if you can gain your freedom, do so. 22 For the one who was a slave when called to faith in the Lord is the Lord’s freed person;(W) similarly, the one who was free when called is Christ’s slave.(X) 23 You were bought at a price;(Y) do not become slaves of human beings. 24 Brothers and sisters, each person, as responsible to God, should remain in the situation they were in when God called them.(Z)
Concerning the Unmarried
25 Now about virgins: I have no command from the Lord,(AA) but I give a judgment as one who by the Lord’s mercy(AB) is trustworthy. 26 Because of the present crisis, I think that it is good for a man to remain as he is.(AC) 27 Are you pledged to a woman? Do not seek to be released. Are you free from such a commitment? Do not look for a wife.(AD) 28 But if you do marry, you have not sinned;(AE) and if a virgin marries, she has not sinned. But those who marry will face many troubles in this life, and I want to spare you this.
29 What I mean, brothers and sisters, is that the time is short.(AF) From now on those who have wives should live as if they do not; 30 those who mourn, as if they did not; those who are happy, as if they were not; those who buy something, as if it were not theirs to keep; 31 those who use the things of the world, as if not engrossed in them. For this world in its present form is passing away.(AG)
32 I would like you to be free from concern. An unmarried man is concerned about the Lord’s affairs(AH)—how he can please the Lord. 33 But a married man is concerned about the affairs of this world—how he can please his wife— 34 and his interests are divided. An unmarried woman or virgin is concerned about the Lord’s affairs: Her aim is to be devoted to the Lord in both body and spirit.(AI) But a married woman is concerned about the affairs of this world—how she can please her husband. 35 I am saying this for your own good, not to restrict you, but that you may live in a right way in undivided(AJ) devotion to the Lord.
36 If anyone is worried that he might not be acting honorably toward the virgin he is engaged to, and if his passions are too strong[b] and he feels he ought to marry, he should do as he wants. He is not sinning.(AK) They should get married. 37 But the man who has settled the matter in his own mind, who is under no compulsion but has control over his own will, and who has made up his mind not to marry the virgin—this man also does the right thing. 38 So then, he who marries the virgin does right,(AL) but he who does not marry her does better.[c]
39 A woman is bound to her husband as long as he lives.(AM) But if her husband dies, she is free to marry anyone she wishes, but he must belong to the Lord.(AN) 40 In my judgment,(AO) she is happier if she stays as she is—and I think that I too have the Spirit of God.

- 1 Corinthians 7:38 Or 36 If anyone thinks he is not treating his daughter properly, and if she is getting along in years (or if her passions are too strong), and he feels she ought to marry, he should do as he wants. He is not sinning. He should let her get married. 37 But the man who has settled the matter in his own mind, who is under no compulsion but has control over his own will, and who has made up his mind to keep the virgin unmarried—this man also does the right thing. 38 So then, he who gives his virgin in marriage does right, but he who does not give her in marriage does better.
