1 Corinthians 7:32-34
Worldwide English (New Testament)
32 I want your minds to be free. The man who is not married thinks about the things of the Lord. He tries to please the Lord.
33 But the man who is married thinks about the things of this world. He tries to please his wife.
34 In the same way, there is a difference between the woman who is married and the one who is not. The woman who is not married thinks about the things of the Lord. She wants her body and her spirit to be holy. But the married woman thinks about the things of this life. She tries to please her husband.

New King James Version
32 But I want you to be without [a]care. (A)He who is unmarried [b]cares for the things of the Lord—how he may please the Lord. 33 But he who is married cares about the things of the world—how he may please his wife. 34 There is a difference between a wife and a virgin. The unmarried woman (B)cares about the things of the Lord, that she may be holy both in body and in spirit. But she who is married cares about the things of the world—how she may please her husband.
