1 Corinthians 7:35

MSG

NIV

35 I'm trying to be helpful and make it as easy as possible for you, not make things harder. All I want is for you to be able to develop a way of life in which you can spend plenty of time together with the Master without a lot of distractions.
35 I am saying this for your own good, not to restrict you, but that you may live in a right way in undivided devotion to the Lord.
