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.
