Ephesians 5:31-33

311For this reason a man shall leave his father and his mother and 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, as for you individually, each husband is to 2love his own wife the same as himself, and the wife must see to it that she 3respects her husband.
