  • Eph 5:22-6:9 : 22 Wyues, submit your selues vnto your owne husbandes, as vnto the Lorde: 23 For the husbande is the head of the wyfe, euen as Christe is the head of the Church: & he is the sauiour of the bodie. 24 But as the Church is subiect to Christ, lykewyse the wyues to their owne husbandes in all thynges. 25 Ye husbandes loue your wyues, euen as Christe also loued the Churche, and gaue hym selfe for it, 26 To sanctifie it, clensyng it in the fountayne of water in the worde, 27 To make it vnto hym selfe a glorious Churche, not hauyng spot or wrinckle, or any such thyng: but that it should be holy, and without blame. 28 So ought men to loue their wyues, as their owne bodies. He that loueth his wyfe, loueth hym selfe. 29 For no man euer yet hated his owne flesshe: but norissheth & cherissheth it, euen as the Lorde the Churche. 30 For we are members of his body, of his flesshe, and of his bones. 31 For this cause shall a man leaue father and mother, and shalbe ioyned vnto his wyfe, and two shalbe made one flesshe. 32 This is a great secrete: but I speake of Christe and of the Churche. 33 Therfore euery one of you do ye so Let euery one of you loue his wyfe euen as hym selfe, and let the wyfe reuerence her husbande. 1 Chyldren, obey your fathers and mothers in the Lorde: for this is ryght. 2 Honour thy father and mother (whiche is the first commaundement in promise) 3 That thou mayest prosper, and lyue long on earth. 4 Fathers prouoke not your children to wrath: but bring them vp in instruction and information of the Lorde. 5 Seruauntes obey them that are your bodyly maisters, with feare and tremblyng, in singlenesse of your heart, as vnto Christe. 6 Not with seruice vnto the eye, as men pleasers: but as the seruautes of Christ. 7 Doyng the wyll of God fro the heart, with good wyll seruyng the Lorde, and not men: 8 Knowyng, that whatsoeuer good thyng any man doeth, that shall he receaue agayne of the Lorde, whether he be bonde or free. 9 And ye maisters do the same thynges vnto them, puttyng away threatnyng: knowyng that your maister also is in heauen, neither is respecte of person with hym.
