29 What I am saying, brothers, is that the time is short. From now on those who have wives should live as if they had none;

30 those who weep, as if they did not; those who are joyful, as if they were not; those who make a purchase, as if they had nothing;

31 and those who use the things of this world, as if not dependent on them. For this world in its present form is passing away.
