Ephesians 5:21-27
2112and subjectG5293 yourselvesG5293 to oneG240 anotherG240 in the 34fearG5401 of ChristG5547.
225WivesG1135, 6subject yourselves to your ownG2398 husbandsG435, 7as to the LordG2962. 23For 8the husbandG435 is the headG2776 of the wifeG1135, as ChristG5547 alsoG2532 is the 9headG2776 of the churchG1577, He HimselfG846 10being the SaviorG4990 of the bodyG4983. 24But as the churchG1577 isG5293 subjectG5293 to ChristG5547, soG3779 alsoG2532 the wivesG1135 ought to be to their husbandsG435 in everythingG3956.
2511HusbandsG435, loveG25 your wivesG1135, justG2531 asG2531 ChristG5547 alsoG2532 lovedG25 the churchG1577 and 12gaveG3860 HimselfG1438 upG3860 for her, 2613soG2443 thatG2443 He might sanctifyG37 her, having 14cleansedG2511 her by the 15washingG3067 of waterG5204 with 16the wordG4487, 27that He might 17presentG3936 to HimselfG1438 the churchG1577 18in allG1741 her gloryG1741, havingG2192 noG3361 spotG4696 orG2228 wrinkleG4512 orG2228 anyG5100 suchG5108 thingG5108; but that she would be 19holyG40 and blamelessG299.
