1 Corinthians 7:29-31

New Revised Standard NRS

29 I mean, brothers and sisters, the appointed time has grown short; from now on, let even those who have wives be as though they had none,

30 and those who mourn as though they were not mourning, and those who rejoice as though they were not rejoicing, and those who buy as though they had no possessions,

31 and those who deal with the world as though they had no dealings with it. For the present form of this world is passing away.

New International Version NIV

29 What I mean, brothers and sisters, is that the time is short. 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.
