22 Wives, be under the authority of your husbands, as of the Lord.
23 For the husband is the head of the wife, as Christ is the head of the church, being himself the saviour of the body.
24 And as the church is under Christ's authority, so let wives be under the rule of their husbands in all things.
25 Husbands, have love for your wives, even as Christ had love for the church, and gave himself for it;
26 So that he might make it holy, having made it clean with the washing of water by the word,
27 And might take it for himself, a church full of glory, not having one mark or fold or any such thing; but that it might be holy and complete.
28 Even so it is right for husbands to have love for their wives as for their bodies. He who has love for his wife has love for himself:
29 For no man ever had hate for his flesh; but he gives it food and takes care of it, even as Christ does for the church;
30 Because we are parts of his body.
31 For this cause will a man go away from his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and the two will become one flesh.
32 This is a great secret: but my words are about Christ and the church.
33 But do you, everyone, have love for his wife, even as for himself; and let the wife see that she has respect for her husband.
22 Ženy mužům svým poddány buďte jako Pánu.
23 Nebo muž jest hlava ženy, jako i Kristus jest hlava církve, a onť jest Spasitel těla.
24 A tak jakož církev poddána jest Kristu, tak i ženy mužům svým ať jsou poddány ve všem.
25 Muži milujte ženy své, jako i Kristus miloval církev, a vydal sebe samého za ni,
26 Aby ji posvětil, očistiv ji obmytím vody v slovu,
27 Aby ji sobě postavil slavnou církev, nemající poskvrny, ani vrásky, neb cokoli takového, ale aby byla svatá a bez úhony.
28 Takť jsou povinni muži milovati ženy své jako svá vlastní těla. Kdo miluje ženu svou, sebeť samého miluje.
29 Žádný zajisté nikdy těla svého neměl v nenávisti, ale krmí a chová je, jakožto i Pán církev.
30 Neboť jsme údové těla jeho, z masa jeho a z kostí jeho.
31 A protoť opustí člověk otce i matku, a připojí se k manželce své, i budouť dva jedno tělo.
32 Tajemství toto veliké jest, ale já pravím o Kristu a o církvi.
33 Avšak i vy, jeden každý z vás, manželku svou tak jako sám sebe miluj. Žena pak ať se bojí muže svého.
