1 Corinthians 7:35

35I am saying this for your own good, not to restrict you, but that you may live in a right way in undivided devotion to the Lord.

35I say this for your own benefit, not to put a restraint on you, but 7:35 Lit for what is seemlyto promote what is appropriate and to secure undistracted devotion to the Lord.

35This I say for your own benefit; not to put a restraint upon you, but to promote what is appropriate and to secure undistracted devotion to the Lord.

35Now I say this for your own benefit; not to restrict you, but to promote what is appropriate and secure undistracted devotion to the Lord.

35I am saying this for your own good, not to restrict you, but in order to promote proper decorum and undivided devotion to the Lord.

35I’m saying those things for your own good. I’m not trying to hold you back. I want you to be free to live in a way that is right. I want you to give yourselves completely to the Lord.
