Ephesians 5:22-30

22Wives, [submit yourselves] to your own husbands, as to the Lord,

23for a husband is head of the wife, as also the Christ [is] head of the assembly. He [is] Saviour of the body.

24But even as the assembly is subjected to the Christ, so also wives to their own husbands in everything.

25Husbands, love your own wives, even as the Christ also loved the assembly, and has delivered himself up for it,

26in order that he might sanctify it, purifying [it] by the washing of water by [the] word,

27that he might present the assembly to himself glorious, having no spot, or wrinkle, or any of such things; but that it might be holy and blameless.

28So ought men also to love their own wives as their own bodies: he that loves his own wife loves himself.

29For no one has ever hated his own flesh, but nourishes and cherishes it, even as also the Christ the assembly:

30for we are members of his body; [we are of his flesh, and of his bones.]
