25 The husbands, love you the wives of yourselves, even as also the Anointed loved the congregation, and himself delivered up on behalf of her,

26 so that her he might sanctify, having cleansed in the bath of the water by a word; Ephesians

27 that might place beside he himself glorious the congregation, not having a spot or blemish or any of such like things, but that she might be holy and blameless.

28 Thus are obligated the husbands to love the of themselves wives, as the of themselves bodies. He loving the of himself wife, himself loves;

29 no one for ever the of himself flesh hated, but nourishes and cherishes her; as even the Anointed the congregation;
