But if you should marry, you would not sin. And if a virgin should marry, she would not sin. But such will have affliction in the flesh. But I spare you.

but he that is married, is concerned about the things of the world, how he may please his wife.

Now, this I say, brethren, the time is fraught with trials. It remains that those who have wives be as though they had them not;

But seek first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness, and all these things shall be given to you in addition.

He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the Most High; and the Lord God will give to him the throne of David his father;

And he said to him: Verily, verily I say to you, From this time you shall see heaven opened, and the angels of God ascending and descending upon the Son of man.
