SECOND READING 

"The woman who remains a virgin cares about the affairs of the Lord, in order to be sanctified" 

the first letter of Saint Paul the apostle to the Corinthians (7, 32-35) 

Brethren, I would like to see you free from worry. The one who is not married cares about the Lord's affairs, he seeks how to please the Lord. He who is married cares about the affairs of this world, he seeks how to please his wife, and he finds himself divided. The woman without a husband, or one who remains a virgin, cares about the affairs of the Lord, in order to be sanctified in body and spirit. The one who is married is concerned with the affairs of this world, she is looking for how to please her husband. It is in your interest that I say this; it is not to set a trap for you, but to offer you what is good, so that you may be attached to the Lord without sharing.
