    22 Wives, submit to your own husbands as to the Lord.

    23 For the husband is the head of the wife as Christ is the head of the church, His body, of which He is the Savior.

    24 As the church submits to Christ, so also wives should submit to their husbands in everything.

    25 Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave Himself up for her,

    26 to make her holy, cleansing her by the washing of water through the word,

    27 and to present her to Himself as a glorious church, without stain or wrinkle or any such blemish, but holy and blameless.

    28 In the same way, husbands ought to love their wives as their own bodies. 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.
