Ephesians 5:25-33

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.] 31Because of this a man shall leave his father and mother, and shall be united to his wife, and the two shall be one flesh. 32This mystery is great, but I speak as to Christ, and as to the assembly. 33But ye also, every one of you, let each so love his own wife as himself; but as to the wife [I speak] that she may fear the husband.
