1 Corinthians 7:38

MSG

NIV

38 Marriage is spiritually and morally right and not inferior to singleness in any way, although as I indicated earlier, because of the times we live in, I do have pastoral reasons for encouraging singleness.
38 So then, he who marries the virgin does right, but he who does not marry her does better.
