Ephesians 5:25-33

Lamsa(i) 25 Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ loved his church, and gave himself for it; 26 That he might sanctify and cleanse it, by the washing of water and by the word, 27 In order to build for himself a glorious church, without stain or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish. 28 So should men love their wives as their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself. 29 For no man ever yet hated his own body; but nourishes it and cherishes it, even as Christ does for his church. 30 For we are members of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones. 31 For this reason shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall be joined to his wife, and they two shall be one flesh. 32 This is a great mystery; but I speak concerning Christ and his church. 33 Nevertheless, let every one of you so love his wife as himself, and the wife see that she reverence her husband.
