Psalms 78:63
63 aFire devoured their young men,and their young women had no bmarriage song.
1 Corinthians 7:28
28But if you do marry, you have not sinned, and if a betrothed woman ▼▼Greek virgin; also verse 34
marries, she has not sinned. Yet those who marry will have worldly troubles, and I would spare you that. 1 Corinthians 7:34
34and his interests are divided. And the unmarried or betrothed woman is anxious about the things of the Lord, how to be holy in body and spirit. But the married woman is anxious about worldly things, how to please her husband.1 Corinthians 7:36-38
36If anyone thinks that he is not behaving properly toward his betrothed, ▼▼Greek virgin; also verses 37, 38
if his ▼▼Or her
passions are strong, and it has to be, let him do as he wishes: let them marry—it is no sin. 37But whoever is firmly established in his heart, being under no necessity but having his desire under control, and has determined this in his heart, to keep her as his betrothed, he will do well. 38So then he who marries his betrothed fdoes well, and he who refrains from marriage will do even better.
