Ephesians 5:28-33

28SoG3779 oughtG3784 menG3588G435 to loveG25 theirG1438 wivesG1135 asG5613 their ownG1438 bodiesG4983. He thatG3588 lovethG25 hisG1438 wifeG1135 lovethG25 himselfG1438.

29ForG1063 no manG3762 ever yetG4218 hatedG3404 his ownG1438 fleshG4561; butG235 nourishethG1625 andG2532 cherishethG2282 itG846, evenG2532 asG2531 the LordG3588G2962 the AssemblyG3588G1577:

30ForG3754 we areG1510 membersG3196 of hisG846 bodyG3588G4983, ofG1537 hisG846 fleshG3588G4561, andG2532 ofG1537 hisG846 bonesG3588G3747.

31ForG473 this causeG3778 shallG2641 a manG444 leaveG2641 hisG846 fatherG3588G3962 andG2532 motherG3588G3384, andG2532 shall be joinedG4347 untoG4314 hisG846 wifeG3588G1135, andG2532 theyG1510 twoG1417 shall beG1510 oneG1520 fleshG4561.

32ThisG3778 isG1510 a greatG3173 mysteryG3588G3466: butG1161 IG1473 speakG3004 concerningG1519 ChristG5547 andG2532 the AssemblyG3588G1577.

33NeverthelessG4133 letG25 every oneG1520 of youG4771 in particularG1538 soG3779 loveG25 hisG1438 wifeG3588G1135 even asG5613 himselfG1438; andG1161 the wifeG3588G1135 see thatG2443 she reverenceG5399 her husbandG3588G435.
