Ephesians 5:31-33

311For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and shall be joined to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh.

32This mystery is great; but I am speaking with reference to Christ and the church.

33Nevertheless, each individual among you also is to 2love his own wife even as himself, and the wife must see to it that she 34respects her husband.
