1 Corintios 7 Douay-Rheims (revisión Challoner), edición estadounidense de 1899
Audio: World English Bible (WEB), en inglés, leído por Winfred W. Henson · Sobre las grabaciones
1 Now concerning the thing whereof you wrote to me: It is good for a man not to touch a woman.
1 CUANTO á las cosas de que me escribisteis, bien es al hombre no tocar mujer.
2 But for fear of fornication, let every man have his own wife, and let every woman have her own husband.
2 Mas á causa de las fornicaciones, cada uno tenga su mujer, y cada una tenga su marido.
3 Let the husband render the debt to his wife, and the wife also in like manner to the husband.
3 El marido pague á la mujer la debida benevolencia; y asimismo la mujer al marido.
4 The wife hath not power of her own body, but the husband. And in like manner the husband also hath not power of his own body, but the wife.
4 La mujer no tiene potestad de su propio cuerpo, sino el marido: é igualmente tampoco el marido tiene potestad de su propio cuerpo, sino la mujer.
5 Defraud not one another, except, perhaps, by consent, for a time, that you may give yourselves to prayer; and return together again, lest Satan tempt you for your incontinency.
5 No os defraudéis el uno al otro, á no ser por algún tiempo de [mutuo] consentimiento, para ocuparos en la oración: y volved á juntaros en uno, porque no os tiente Satanás á causa de vuestra incontinencia.
6 But I speak this by indulgence, not by commandment.
6 Mas esto digo por permisión, no por mandamiento.
7 For I would that all men were even as myself: but every one hath his proper gift from God; one after this manner, and another after that.
7 Quisiera más bien que todos los hombres fuesen como yo: empero cada uno tiene su propio don de Dios; uno á la verdad así, y otro así.
8 But I say to the unmarried, and to the widows: It is good for them if they so continue, even as I.
8 Digo pues á los solteros y á las viudas, que bueno les es si se quedaren como yo.
9 But if they do not contain themselves, let them marry. For it is better to marry than to be burnt.
9 Y si no tienen don de continencia, cásense; que mejor es casarse que quemarse.
10 But to them that are married, not I but the Lord commandeth, that the wife depart not from her husband.
10 Mas á los que están juntos en matrimonio, denuncio, no yo, sino el Señor: Que la mujer no se aparte del marido;
11 And if she depart, that she remain unmarried, or be reconciled to her husband. And let not the husband put away his wife.
11 Y si se apartare, que se quede sin casar, ó reconcíliese con su marido; y que el marido no despida á su mujer.
12 For to the rest I speak, not the Lord. If any brother hath a wife that believeth not, and she consent to dwell with him, let him not put her away.
12 Y á los demás yo digo, no el Señor: Si algún hermano tiene mujer infiel, y ella consiente en habitar con él, no la despida.
13 And if any woman hath a husband that believeth not, and he consent to dwell with her, let her not put away her husband.
13 Y la mujer que tiene marido infiel, y él consiente en habitar con ella, no lo deje.
14 For the unbelieving husband is sanctified by the believing wife; and the unbelieving wife is sanctified by the believing husband: otherwise your children should be unclean; but now they are holy.
14 Porque el marido infiel es santificado en la mujer, y la mujer infiel en el marido: pues de otra manera vuestros hijos serían inmundos; empero ahora son santos.
15 But if the unbeliever depart, let him depart. For a brother or sister is not under servitude in such cases. But God hath called us in peace.
15 Pero si el infiel se aparta, apártese: que no es el hermano ó la hermana sujeto á servidumbre en semejante [caso]; antes á paz nos llamó Dios.
16 For how knowest thou, O wife, whether thou shalt save thy husband? Or how knowest thou, O man, whether thou shalt save thy wife?
16 Porque ¿de dónde sabes, oh mujer, si quizá harás salvo á tu marido? ¿ó de dónde sabes, oh marido, si quizá harás salva á tu mujer?
17 But as the Lord hath distributed to every one, as God hath called every one, so let him walk: and so in all churches I teach.
17 Empero cada uno como el Señor le repartió, y como Dios llamó á cada uno, así ande: y así enseño en todas las iglesias.
18 Is any man called, being circumcised? let him not procure uncircumcision. Is any man called in uncircumcision? let him not be circumcised.
18 ¿Es llamado alguno circuncidado? quédese circunciso. ¿Es llamado alguno incircuncidado? que no se circuncide.
19 Circumcision is nothing, and uncircumcision is nothing: but the observance of the commandments of God.
19 La circuncisión nada es, y la incircuncisión nada es; sino la observancia de las mandamientos de Dios.
20 Let every man abide in the same calling in which he was called.
20 Cada uno en la vocación en que fué llamado, en ella se quede.
21 Wast thou called, being a bondman? care not for it; but if thou mayest be made free, use it rather.
21 ¿Eres llamado siendo siervo? no se te dé cuidado: mas también si puedes hacerte libre, procúralo más.
22 For he that is called in the Lord, being a bondman, is the freeman of the Lord. Likewise he that is called, being free, is the bondman of Christ.
22 Porque el que en el Señor es llamado siendo siervo, liberto es del Señor: asimismo también el que es llamado siendo libre, siervo es de Cristo.
23 You are bought with a price; be not made the bondslaves of men.
23 Por precio sois comprados; no os hagáis siervos de los hombres.
24 Brethren, let every man, wherein he was called, therein abide with God.
24 Cada uno, hermanos, en lo que es llamado, en esto se quede para con Dios.
25 Now concerning virgins, I have no commandment of the Lord; but I give counsel, as having obtained mercy of the Lord, to be faithful.
25 Empero de las vírgenes no tengo mandamiento del Señor; mas doy mi parecer, como quien ha alcanzado misericordia del Señor para ser fiel.
26 I think therefore that this is good for the present necessity, that it is good for a man so to be.
26 Tengo, pues, esto por bueno á causa de la necesidad que apremia, que bueno es al hombre estarse así.
27 Art thou bound to a wife? seek not to be loosed. Art thou loosed from a wife? seek not a wife.
27 ¿Estás ligado á mujer? no procures soltarte. ¿Estás suelto de mujer? no procures mujer.
28 But if thou take a wife, thou hast not sinned. And if a virgin marry, she hath not sinned: nevertheless, such shall have tribulation of the flesh. But I spare you.
28 Mas también si tomares mujer, no pecaste; y si la doncella se casare, no pecó: pero aflicción de carne tendrán los tales: mas yo os dejo.
29 This therefore I say, brethren; the time is short; it remaineth, that they also who have wives, be as if they had none;
29 Esto empero digo, hermanos, que el tiempo es corto: lo que resta es, que los que tienen mujeres sean como los que no las tienen;
30 And they that weep, as though they wept not; and they that rejoice, as if they rejoiced not; and they that buy, as though they possessed not;
30 Y los que lloran, como los que no lloran; y los que se huelgan, como los que no se huelgan; y los que compran, como los que no poseen;
31 And they that use this world, as if they used it not: for the fashion of this world passeth away.
31 Y los que usan de este mundo, como los que no usan: porque la apariencia de este mundo se pasa.
32 But I would have you to be without solicitude. He that is without a wife, is solicitous for the things that belong to the Lord, how he may please God.
32 Quisiera, pues, que estuvieseis sin congoja. El soltero tiene cuidado de las cosas que son del Señor, cómo ha de agradar al Señor:
33 But he that is with a wife, is solicitous for the things of the world, how he may please his wife: and he is divided.
33 Empero el que se casó tiene cuidado de las cosas que son del mundo, cómo ha de agradar á su mujer.
34 And the unmarried woman and the virgin thinketh on the things of the Lord, that she may be holy both in body and in spirit. But she that is married thinketh on the things of the world, how she may please her husband.
34 Hay asimismo diferencia entre la casada y la doncella: la doncella tiene cuidado de las cosas del Señor, para ser santa así en el cuerpo como en el espíritu: mas la casada tiene cuidado de las cosas del mundo, cómo ha de agradar á su marido.
35 And this I speak for your profit: not to cast a snare upon you; but for that which is decent, and which may give you power to attend upon the Lord, without impediment.
35 Esto empero digo para vuestro provecho; no para echaros lazo, sino para lo honesto y decente, y para que sin impedimento os lleguéis al Señor.
36 But if any man think that he seemeth dishonoured, with regard to his virgin, for that she is above the age, and it must so be: let him do what he will; he sinneth not, if she marry.
36 Mas, si á alguno parece cosa fea en su [hija] virgen, que pase ya de edad, y que así conviene que se haga, haga lo que quisiere, no peca; cásese.
37 For he that hath determined being steadfast in his heart, having no necessity, but having power of his own will; and hath judged this in his heart, to keep his virgin, doth well.
37 Pero el que está firme en su corazón, y no tiene necesidad, sino que tiene libertad de su voluntad, y determinó en su corazón esto, el guardar su [hija] virgen, bien hace.
38 Therefore, both he that giveth his virgin in marriage, doth well; and he that giveth her not, doth better.
38 Así que, el que la da en casamiento, bien hace; y el que no la da en casamiento, hace mejor.
39 A woman is bound by the law as long as her husband liveth; but if her husband die, she is at liberty: let her marry to whom she will; only in the Lord.
39 La mujer casada está atada á la ley, mientras vive su marido; mas si su marido muriere, libre es: cásese con quien quisiere, con tal que sea en el Señor.
40 But more blessed shall she be, if she so remain, according to my counsel; and I think that I also have the spirit of God.
40 Empero más venturosa será si se quedare así, según mi consejo; y pienso que también yo tengo Espíritu de Dios.

Lo que dijeron los Padres
Pasajes de los Padres de la Iglesia que comentan o citan este capítulo, tal como aparecen en la edición de Schaff (traducciones inglesas del siglo XIX, de dominio público). Los textos están en inglés.
Cómo se eligieron
«Comentario» es el comienzo de una homilía o exposición sobre este capítulo (homilías de san Juan Crisóstomo; tratados, sermones y comentarios a los Salmos de san Agustín). «Cita» es una frase en la que las notas de la propia edición identifican la cita de un versículo de este capítulo; solo se conserva si el texto coincide con el versículo. Solo se usan obras de autoría segura. Los Salmos siguen la numeración hebrea (Agustín usa la de los Setenta: su Salmo 50 es aquí el 51).
Having corrected the three heaviest things laid to their charge, one, the distraction of the Church, another, about the fornicator, a third, about the covetous person, he thenceforth uses a milder sort of speech. And he interposes some exhortation and advice about marriage and virginity, giving the hearers some respite from more unpleasant subjects.

And they are also unacquainted with [the meaning of] the passing away of the heaven and earth; but Paul was not ignorant of it when he declared, "For the figure of this world passeth away." In the next place, David explains their question, for he says that when the fashion of this world passes away, not only shall God remain, …
For Thy omnipotency is not far from us even when we are far from Thee, else in truth ought I more vigilantly to have given heed to the voice from the clouds: "Nevertheless, such shall have trouble in the flesh, but I spare you;" and, "It is good for a man not to touch a woman;" and, "He that is …
