5:25Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it;

5:26That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word,

5:27That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish.

5:28So ought men to love their wives as their own bodies. He that loveth his wife loveth himself.

5:29For no man ever yet hated his own flesh; but nourisheth and cherisheth it, even as the Lord the church:

5:30For we are members of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones.

5:31For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall be joined unto his wife, and they two shall be one flesh.

5:32This is a great mystery: but I speak concerning Christ and the church.

5:33Nevertheless let every one of you in particular so love his wife even as himself; and the wife see that she reverence her husband.
