9 But if they cannot control themselves, they should marry, for it is better to marry than to burn with passion.

1 Corinthians 7:28

28 But if you do marry, you have not sinned; 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.

1 Corinthians 7:33

33 But a married man is concerned about the affairs of this world—how he can please his wife—

1 Corinthians 7:34

1 Corinthians 7:36

1 Corinthians 7:39

39 A woman is bound to her husband as long as he lives. But if her husband dies, she is free to marry anyone she wishes, but he must belong to the Lord.
