Ephesians 5:25-27 Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself up for it;

ASV⁽ⁱ⁾ ²⁵ Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself up for it; ²⁶ that he might sanctify it, having cleansed it by the washing of water with the word, ²⁷ that he might present the church to himself a glorious [church], not having spot or wrinkle or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish.
