1 Corinthians 7:7

* The two F.O.G. Bibles & Commentary below are currently a work in progress.

I wish that all men were as I am. But each man has his own gift from God; one has this gift, another has that.
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
Yet I wish that all men were like me. However each man has his own gift from God, one of this kind, and another of that kind.
World English Bible (WEB)
For{G1063} I would{G2309}{(G5719)} that all{G3956} men{G444} were{G1511}{(G5750)} even{G2532} as{G5613} I myself{G1683}. But{G235} every man{G1538} hath{G2192}{(G5719)} his proper{G2398} gift{G5486} of{G1537} God{G2316}, one{G3739}{G3303} after this manner{G3779}, and{G1161} another{G3739} after that{G3779}.
Strong's King James
(7) wanting now that all men were also as myself. Yet everyone has their own gift from יהוה YAHWEH, one in this way and another in that. 
The F.O.G*
[7] I wish everyone could have the gift of contentment in singleness as I do. But יהוה gives different gifts to different people – some are called to marriage, others to singleness.
The F.O.G Paraphrase
for I wish all men to be even as I myself am; but each his own gift hath of God, one indeed thus, and one thus.
Young's Literal Translation
