25 Ye husbands, be loving your wives, even as, the Christ also, loved the assembly, and delivered, himself, up in her behalf,

26 That, her, he might sanctify, having purified with the bath of water, in declaration,

27 That, he, might present, unto himself, the assembly, all glorious, not having spot or wrinkle or any of such things, but that she should be holy and blameless;

28 So, ought the husbands to be loving their own wives, as their own bodies,he that loveth his own wife, loveth himself,

29 No one, in fact, ever yet hated, his own flesh, but nourisheth and cherisheth it,even as, the Christ, the assembly,

30 Because, members, are we of his body;
