25 Ye hussbandes loue youre wyues, euen as Christ loued the congregacion, and gaue himselfe for it,
26 to sanctifye it, and clensed it in the fountayne of water by the worde,
27 to make it vnto himselfe a glorious congregacion, hauynge no spot ner wrynkle, ner eny soch thinge, but that it shulde be holy and without blame.
28 So oughte men also to loue their wyues, euen as their awne bodyes. He that loueth his wife, loueth himselfe.
29 For no ma euer yet hated his awne flesshe, but norisheth and cherissheth it, euen as the LORDE doth also the congregacion.
