Ephesians 5:22-28

22WivesG1135, beG2962 inG435 subjection unto yourG2962 ownG2398 husbandsG435, asG5613 unto theG3588 LordG2962.

23ForG3754 theG3588 husbandG435 isG1510 theG3588 headG2776 ofG435 theG3588 wifeG1135, asG5613 ChristG5547 alsoG2532 isG1510 theG3588 headG2776 ofG435 theG3588 churchG1577, beingG1510 himselfG846 theG3588 saviour ofG435 theG3588 bodyG4983.

24ButG235 asG5613 theG3956 churchG1577 is subjectG5293 toG2532 ChristG5547, soG2532 let theG3956 wivesG1135 alsoG2532 beG2532 toG2532 theirG2532 husbandsG435 inG1722 everythingG3956.

25HusbandsG435, loveG25 yourG25 wivesG1135, evenG2532 asG2531 ChristG5547 alsoG2532 lovedG25 theG3588 churchG1577, andG2532 gaveG3860 himselfG1438 upG3860 forG5228 itG846;

26thatG2443 heG846 might sanctifyG37 itG846, having cleansedG2511 itG846 byG1722 theG3588 washingG3067 ofG1722 waterG5204 withG1722 theG3588 wordG4487,

27thatG2443 heG2532 mightG2532 presentG3936 theG3588 churchG1577 toG2443 himselfG1438 a gloriousG1741 churchG1577, notG3361 havingG2192 spotG4696 orG2228 wrinkleG4512 orG2228 anyG5100 suchG5108 thingG846; butG235 thatG2443 itG846 shouldG5100 beG1510 holyG40 andG2532 withoutG3361 blemishG299.

28EvenG2532 soG2532 oughtG3784 husbandsG435 alsoG2532 toG2532 loveG25 theirG1438 ownG1438 wivesG1135 asG5613 theirG1438 ownG1438 bodiesG4983. HeG2532 thatG5613 loveth hisG25 ownG1438 wifeG1135 loveth himselfG1438:
