He who loves his wife loves himself. 29 For no one ever hated his own body, but he nourishes and cherishes it, just as Christ does the church, 30 because we are members of His body. 31 For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and the two will become one flesh. 32 This mystery is great—but I am speaking about Christ and the church. 33 However, each one of you must also love his own wife as he loves himself, and the wife must respect her husband.
