38 So the man who marries the woman he's engaged to does well, while the one who does not get married does better.

39 A wife is bound to her husband as long as he lives. But if her husband dies,[30] she is free to marry whoever she wants in the Lord.[31]

40 But in my opinion she would be happier if she didn't re-marry—and I think I too have the Spirit of God when I say this.
