Ephesians 5:23-27
23For 1the husband is the head of the wife, as Christ also is the 2head of the church, He Himself 3being the Savior of the body. 24But as the church is subject to Christ, so also the wives ought to be to their husbands in everything.
254Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ also loved the church and 5gave Himself up for her, 266so that He might sanctify her, having 7cleansed her by the 8washing of water with 9the word, 27that He might 10present to Himself the church 11in all her glory, having no spot or wrinkle or any such thing; but that she would be 12holy and blameless.
