King James Version
"And they that use this world, as not abusing it: for the fashion of this world passeth away."
— 1 Corinthians 7:31, King James Version
“and those that use the world, as not using it to the full: for the fashion of this world passeth away. ”
“and those who use the world, as not using it to the fullest. For the mode of this world passes away.”
“those who use the world as though they were not using it to the full. For the present shape of this world is passing away.”
“And they that use this world, as if they used it not. For the fashion of this world passeth away.”
“And for those who make use of the world, not to be using it fully; for this world's way of life will quickly come to an end.”
“And they that use this world, as not abusing it: for the fashion of this world passeth away.”
But and if thou marry, thou hast not sinned; and if a virgin marry, she hath not sinned. Nevertheless such shall have trouble in the flesh: but I spare you.
But this I say, brethren, the time is short: it remaineth, that both they that have wives be as though they had none;
And they that weep, as though they wept not; and they that rejoice, as though they rejoiced not; and they that buy, as though they possessed not;
And they that use this world, as not abusing it: for the fashion of this world passeth away.
But I would have you without carefulness. He that is unmarried careth for the things that belong to the Lord, how he may please the Lord:
But he that is married careth for the things that are of the world, how he may please his wife.
There is difference also between a wife and a virgin. The unmarried woman careth for the things of the Lord, that she may be holy both in body and in spirit: but she that is married careth for the things of the world, how she may please her husband.
