22 Wives, submit yourselves to your own husbands as unto the Lord.

23 For the husband is head of the wife, as Christ also is head of the church:

24 (and he is the Saviour of the body) Therefore as the church is subject to Christ, so also let the wives be to their own husbands in every thing.

25 Husbands, love your wives, as Christ also loved the church and gave himself for it;

26 That he might sanctify it (having cleansed it by the washing of water) through the word:

27 That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot or wrinkle, or any such thing, that it may be holy and unblamable.

28 Men ought so to love their wives as their own bodies: he that loveth his wife, loveth himself.

29 Now no one ever hated his own flesh, but nourisheth and cherisheth it, as also the Lord the church.

30 For we are members of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones.

31 For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall be joined to his wife; and they two shall be one flesh.

32 This is a great mystery; I mean, concerning Christ and the church.

33 But let every one of you in particular so love his wife as himself: and let the wife reverence her husband.
