1 Corinthians 7:38-40
Good News Translation
38 So the man who marries[a] does well, but the one who doesn't marry[b] does even better.
39 A married woman is not free as long as her husband lives; but if her husband dies, then she is free to be married to any man she wishes, but only if he is a Christian. 40 She will be happier, however, if she stays as she is. That is my opinion, and I think that I too have God's Spirit.
