Bible verses about "weddings" | CLV

²¹ to our God and Father, being subject to one another in the fear of Christ." ²² Let the wives be subject to their own husbands, as to the Lord, ²³ for the husband is head of the wife even as Christ is Head of the ecclesia, and He is the Saviour of the body." ²⁴ Nevertheless, as the ecclesia is subject to Christ, thus are the wives also to their husbands in everything." ²⁵ Husbands, be loving your wives according as Christ also loves the ecclesia, and gives Himself up for its sake, ²⁶ that He should be hallowing it, cleansing it in the bath of the water (with His declaration), ²⁷ that He should be presenting to Himself a glorious ecclesia, not having spot or wrinkle or any such things, but that it may be holy and flawless." ²⁸ Thus, the husbands also ought to be loving their own wives as their own bodies. He who is loving his own wife is loving himself." ²⁹ For no one at any time hates his own flesh, but is nurturing and cherishing it, according as Christ also the ecclesia, ³⁰ for we are members of His body. ³¹ For this "a man shall leave his father and mother and shall be joined to his wife, and the two shall be one flesh." ³² This secret is great: yet I am saying this as to Christ and as to the ecclesia. ³³ Moreover, you also individually, each be loving his own wife thus, as himself, yet that the wife may be fearing the husband."

¹³ invalidating the word of God by your tradition which you give over. And many such like things you are doing."

¹ And, answering, Jesus speaks to them again in parables, saying, ² Likened was the kingdom of the heavens to a man, a king, who makes wedding festivities for his son." ³ And he dispatches his slaves to call those invited to the wedding festivities, and they would not come." ⁴ Again he dispatches other slaves, saying, 'Say to those invited, "Lo! my luncheon have I made ready, my bulls and grain-fed animals have been sacrificed, and all is ready: Hither for the wedding festivities!"'" ⁵ Yet they, not caring, came away, one, indeed, to his own field, yet one to his merchandise." ⁶ Yet the rest, taking hold of his slaves, outrage and kill them." ⁷ Now the king is angered, and, sending his troops, destroys those murderers and sets their city in flames." ⁸ Then he is saying to his slaves, 'The wedding, indeed, is ready, yet those invited were not worthy." ⁹ Go, then, to the exits of the roads and whosoever you may be finding, call to the wedding festivities.'" ¹⁰ And, coming out into the roads, those slaves gathered all whom they found, both wicked and good, and filled is the wedding with those lying back at table." ¹¹ Now the king, entering to gaze at those lying back at table, perceived there a man who has not put on wedding apparel." ¹² And he is saying to him, 'Comrade, how did you enter here having no wedding apparel?' Yet he was still." ¹³ Then the king said to the servants, 'Binding his feet and hands, cast him out into outer darkness.' There shall be lamentation and gnashing of teeth." ¹⁴ For many are the called, yet few are the chosen."

¹ Likewise wives may do it by being subject to their own husbands, that, if any are stubborn also, as to the word, they will be gained without a word, through the behavior of their wives, ² being spectators of your pure behavior in fear, ³ whose adornment, let it not be the outside, of braiding aught into the hair and of decking with gold, or putting on of garments, ⁴ but the hidden human of the heart, in the incorruptibility of a meek and quiet spirit, which, in God's sight, is costly." ⁵ For thus once the holy women also, whose expectation was in God, adorned themselves, being subject to their own husbands" ⁶ (as Sarah obeys Abraham, calling him "lord,whose children you became), doing good and not fearing dismay in anything." ⁷ Husbands, likewise, may do it by making a home with them according to knowledge, awarding honor to the feminine as to the weaker vessel, as to those who are also joint enjoyers of the allotment of the varied grace of life, that your prayers be not hindered." ⁸ Now the finish; Be all of a like disposition, sympathetic, fond of the brethren, tenderly compassionate, of a humble disposition, ⁹ not rendering evil for evil, or reviling for reviling, but, on the contrary, blessing, seeing that you were called for this, that you should be enjoying the allotment of blessing, ¹⁰ for He who is wanting to love life and be acquainted with good days, Let his tongue cease from evil And his lips speak no guile."

¹⁸ And saying is Yahweh Elohim, "Not good is it for the human for him to be alone. Make for him will I a helper as his complement. ¹⁹ And furthermore Yahweh Elohim, having formed from the ground all field life and every flyer of the heavens, He is also bringing it to the human to see what he will call it. And whatever the human living soul is calling it, that is its name. ²⁰ And calling is the human the names for every beast and for every flyer of the heavens, and for all field life. Yet for the human He does not find a helper as His complement. ²¹ And falling is a stupor on the human, caused by Yahweh Elohim, and he is sleeping. And taking is He one of his angular organs and is closing the flesh under it. ²² And Yahweh Elohim is building the angular organ, which He takes from the human, into a woman, and bringing her is He to the human. ²³ And saying is the human, "This was once bone of my bones and flesh from my flesh. This shall be called woman, for from her man is this taken. ²⁴ Therefore a man shall forsake his father and his mother and cling to his wife, and they two become one flesh. ²⁵ And coming are they two, the human and his wife, to be naked, yet are not shaming themselves.
