26
Therefore I consider this to be good because of the present distress: it is fine for a man to stay as he is.
1 Corinthians 7:26 In-Context
24
Brothers and sisters, each person, as responsible to God, should remain in the situation they were in when God called them.
25
Now about virgins: I have no command from the Lord, but I give a judgment as one who by the Lord’s mercy is trustworthy.
26
Because of the present crisis, I think that it is good for a man to remain as he is.
27
Are you pledged to a woman? Do not seek to be released. Are you free from such a commitment? Do not look for a wife.
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.
