Ephesians 5:25-33

25HusbandsG435, loveG25 your ownG1438 wivesG1135, evenG2532 as the ChristG5547 alsoG2532 lovedG25 the assemblyG1577, and has deliveredG3860 himself up for it, 26in orderG2443 that he might sanctifyG37 it, purifying [it] by the washingG3067 of waterG5204 by [the] word, 27that he might presentG3936 the assemblyG1577 to himself glorious, having no spot, or wrinkle, or any of suchG5108 thingsG5108; but that it might beG1510 holyG40 and blamelessG299. 28So oughtG3784 menG435 alsoG2532 to loveG25 their ownG1438 wivesG1135 as their ownG1438 bodiesG4983: he that lovesG25 his ownG1438 wifeG1135 lovesG25 himself. 29For no oneG3762 has everG4218 hatedG3404 his ownG1438 fleshG4561, but nourishes and cherishes it, evenG2532 as alsoG2532 the ChristG5547 the assemblyG1577: 30for we areG1510 membersG3196 of his bodyG4983; [we areG1510 of his flesh, and of his bones.] 31Because of this a manG444 shall leaveG2641 his fatherG3962 and motherG3384, and shall beG1510 united to his wifeG1135, and the twoG1417 shall beG1510 oneG1520 fleshG4561. 32This mysteryG3466 isG1510 greatG3173, but I speakG3004 as to ChristG5547, and as to the assemblyG1577. 33But ye alsoG2532, every oneG1520 of you, let each soG2443 loveG25 his ownG1438 wifeG1135 as himself; but as to the wifeG1135 [I speak] that she may fearG5399 the husbandG435.
