22 E nga wahine, kia ngohengohe ki a koutou tane ake, hei mea ki te Ariki.
23 No te mea ko te tane te o te wahine, e rite ana hoki ki a te Karaiti, ko te ia o te hahi: ko te kaiwhakaora ano ia o te tinana.
24 Otiia e ngohengohe ana te hahi ki ta te Karaiti, kia pera ano nga wahine ki a ratou tane i nga mea katoa.
25 E nga tane, arohaina a koutou wahine, kia pera hoki me te Karaiti i aroha nei ki te hahi, i hoatu hoki i a ia ano mo taua hahi;
26 Hei whakatapunga mana, ma rawa i a ia i te horoinga ki te wai, i runga i te kupu,
27 Hei hahi tapae mana ki a ia ano, he hahi kororia rawa, kahore he ira, kahore he korukoru, tetahi atu mea pera ranei, engari kia tapu, kia kohakore.
28 Me aroha e nga tane a ratou wahine me te mea ko o ratou tinana ake ano. Ko te tangata e aroha ana ki tana wahine ake, e aroha ana ki a ia ake ano.
29 Kahore hoki tetahi kia kino noa ki tona kikokiko ake; engari e atawhai ana, e whakaahuru ana, e pera tonu ana me ta te Karaiti ki te hahi:
30 He wahi hoki tatou no tona tinana.
31 Mo konei ra ka whakarerea ai e te tangata tona papa me tona whaea, a ka piri ki tana wahine, ka kikokiko kotahi to raua tokorua.
32 He nui tenei mea ngaro; otiia mo te Karaiti raua ko te hahi taku korero.
33 Engari kia rite ki tona aroha ki a ia ake ano to koutou aroha, to tenei, to tenei, ki tana wahine, ki tana wahine; me te wahine ano, kia hopohopo ia ki tana tane.
22 Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as unto the Lord. 23 For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church: and he is the saviour of the body. 24 Therefore as the church is subject unto Christ, so let the wives be to their own husbands in every thing. 25 Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it; 26 That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word, 27 That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish. 28 So ought men to love their wives as their own bodies. He that loveth his wife loveth himself. 29 For no man ever yet hated his own flesh; but nourisheth and cherisheth it, even as the Lord the church: 30 For we are members of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones. 31 For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall be joined unto his wife, and they two shall be one flesh. 32 This is a great mystery: but I speak concerning Christ and the church. 33 Nevertheless let every one of you in particular so love his wife even as himself; and the wife see that she reverence her husband.
