Matthew(i)
23 For the husbande is the wyues head, euen as Christe is the heade of the congregation, and the same is the sauiour of the body.
24 Therfore as the congregation is in subieccion to Christe, lykewyse let the wyues be in subieccion to theyr husbandes in all thynges.
25 Husbandes loue youre wyues, euen as Christe loued the congregation, and gaue him selfe for it,
26 to sanctifye it, and cleansed it in the fountayne of water thorowe the worde
27 to make it vnto hym selfe a glorious congregation wythout spotte or wrinckle, or anye suche thinge: but that it shoulde be holy and wythout blame.
28 So ought men to loue theyr wyues, as their owne bodies. He that loueth hys wyfe, loueth him selfe.
29 For no man euer yet hated hys owne fleshe, but norisheth and cherisseth it euen as the Lorde doeth the congregation.
30 For we are members of his bodie, of his fleshe, and of hys bones.
31 For this cause shall a man leaue father and mother, and shall continue wyth hys wyfe, and two shalbe made one fleshe.
32 Thys is a greate secrete, but I speake betwene Christe and the congregation.
