Bible verses about "weddings" | BLB

²¹ Be submitting yourselves to one another in reverence of Christ: ²² wives, to the own husbands as to the Lord; ²³ for the husband is head of the wife as also Christ is the head of the church, He Himself Savior of the body. ²⁴ But even as the church is subjected to Christ, so also wives to the own husbands in everything. ²⁵ Husbands, love the wives just as Christ also loved the church and gave Himself up for her, ²⁶ so that He might sanctify her, having cleansed her by the washing of water by the word, ²⁷ so that He might present to Himself the church in glory, not having spot or wrinkle or any of the such things, but that it would be holy and blameless. ²⁸ So also husbands ought to love their wives as their own bodies. The one loving his wife loves himself. ²⁹ For no one at any time hated his flesh. But he nourishes and cherishes it just as Christ also does the church. ³⁰ For we are members of His body. ³¹ “Because of this, a man will leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and the two will be into one flesh.” ³² This mystery is great; but I speak as to Christ and as to the church. ³³ However, you also, every individual, let each so love his wife as himself; and the wife, that she may respect the husband.

¹³ making void the word of God for your tradition, which you have handed down. And you do many things like such.”

¹ And answering, Jesus spoke to them again in parables, saying, ² “The kingdom of the heavens has become like a man, a king, who made a wedding feast for his son. ³ And he sent his servants to call those having been invited to the wedding feast—and they were not willing to come. ⁴ Again he sent other servants, saying, ‘Say to those having been invited, “Behold, I have prepared my dinner. My oxen and the fatlings have been killed, and all things are ready; come to the wedding feast.”’ ⁵ And having paid no attention they went away, one to the own field, and one to his business. ⁶ And the rest, having laid hold of his servants, mistreated and killed them. ⁷ And the king was angry, and having sent his armies, he destroyed those murderers and burned their city. ⁸ Then he says to his servants, ‘Indeed the wedding feast is ready, but those having been invited were not worthy. ⁹ Therefore go into the thoroughfares of the highways, and invite to the wedding feast as many as you shall find.’ ¹⁰ And those servants, having gone out into the highways, brought together all, as many as they found, both evil and good; and the wedding hall became full of those reclining. ¹¹ And the king having entered in to see those reclining, he beheld a man there not being dressed in wedding clothes. ¹² And he says to him, ‘Friend, how did you enter here not having a wedding garment?’ And he was speechless. ¹³ Then the king said to the servants, ‘Having bound his hands and feet, cast him out into the outer darkness, where there will be weeping and gnashing of the teeth.’ ¹⁴ For many are called, but few chosen.”

¹ Likewise wives, be subject to the own husbands so that, even if any are disobedient to the word, they will be won over without word by the conduct of the wives, ² having witnessed your respectful, pure conduct, ³ whose adorning let not be the external, of braiding of hair and putting around of gold, or putting on of garments, ⁴ but the hidden man of the heart, in the imperishable of the gentle and quiet spirit, which is of great worth before God. ⁵ For in this way formerly, the holy women also hoping in God used to adorn themselves, being subject to the own husbands, ⁶ as Sarah obeyed Abraham, calling him lord, of whom you have become children, doing good and not fearing any consternation. ⁷ Husbands do likewise, dwelling with them according to knowledge, as with a weaker vessel, with the female, rendering honor as joint-heirs also of the grace of life, so as for your prayers not to be hindered. ⁸ Now the end: All be single-minded, sympathetic, loving as brothers, tender-hearted, humble, ⁹ not repaying evil for evil or insult for insult; but on the contrary blessing, because to this you were called, so that you should inherit blessing. ¹⁰ For, “The one desiring to love life, and to see good days, let him keep the tongue from evil, and lips not to speak deceit.
