Ephesians 5:25-27 You husband, love your spouse, even as Christ loved the church, and laid down his life for her:

Mace⁽ⁱ⁾ ²⁵ You husband, love your spouse, even as Christ loved the church, and laid down his life for her: ²⁶ to sanctify and purify her by the ablution of his word, ²⁷ that he himself might make her appear illustrious to his own eye, a church without spot, or any thing like a defect; so as to be holy and irreprehensible.
