Let each one remain in the calling in which he was called.
Like a bird that strays from its nest is a man that wanders from his home.
Only, as the Lord has assigned to each one, as God has called each, let him walk in this way. I give this rule in all of Messiah’s communities.
Are you bound to a wife? Don’t seek a divorce. Are you free from a wife? Don’t seek a wife.
and aspire to lead a quiet life, to mind your own affairs, and to work with your hands, just as we directed you—
Now such people we command and urge in the Lord Messiah Yeshua to work in a quiet demeanor, so they may eat their own bread.
