26 And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.
27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.

4 Marriage is honourable in all, and the bed undefiled: but fornicators and adulterers God will judge.
18 Flee immorality. Every sin that a man doeth is outside the body; but he that committeth immorality sinneth against his own body.
19 What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, which ye have from God, and ye are not your own?
20 For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God’s.
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.

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,
21 And the LORD God caused a deep sleep to fall upon Adam, and he slept: and he took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh in its place;

2 For the woman who hath an husband is bound by the law to her husband so long as he liveth; but if the husband is dead, she is loosed from the law of her husband.
3 So then if, while her husband liveth, she is married to another man, she shall be called an adulteress: but if her husband is dead, she is free from that law; so that she is no adulteress, though she be married to another man.
14 For the unbelieving husband is sanctified by the wife, and the unbelieving wife is sanctified by the husband: else were your children unclean; but now are they holy.
10 For immoral men, for them that defile themselves with mankind, for kidnappers, for liars, for perjured persons, and if there is any other thing that is contrary to sound doctrine;
31 It hath been said, Whoever shall put away his wife, let him give her a writing of divorcement:
32 But I say to you, That whoever shall put away his wife, except for the cause of immorality, causeth her to commit adultery: and whoever shall marry her that is divorced committeth adultery.
1 Now Sarai Abram’s wife bore him no children: and she had an handmaid, an Egyptian, whose name was Hagar.

3 And Sarai Abram’s wife took Hagar her maid the Egyptian, after Abram had dwelt ten years in the land of Canaan, and gave her to her husband Abram to be his wife.

8 I say therefore to the unmarried and widows, It is good for them if they remain even as I.
9 But if they cannot control themselves, let them marry: for it is better to marry than to burn.
10 And to the married I command, yet not I, but the Lord, Let not the wife depart from her husband:
11 But if she shall depart, let her remain unmarried, or be reconciled to her husband: and let not the husband put away his wife.

21 Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they who do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.
8 When thou art invited by any man to a wedding, sit not down in the best place; lest a more honourable man than thou be invited by him;
1 Sing, O barren, thou that didst not bear; break forth into singing, and cry aloud, thou that didst not travail with child: for more are the children of the desolate than the children of the married wife, saith the LORD.
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.
22 Whoever findeth a wife findeth a good thing, and obtaineth favour from the LORD.
22 Whoever findeth a wife findeth a good thing, and obtaineth favour from the LORD.

32 But I would have you without care. He that is unmarried careth for the things that belong to the Lord, how he may please the Lord: that belong…: Gr. of the Lord
33 But he that is married careth for the things that are of the world, how he may please his wife.
34 There is a difference also between a wife and a virgin. The unmarried woman careth for the things of the Lord, that she may be holy both in body and in spirit: but she that is married careth for the things of the world, how she may please her husband.
29 So he that goeth in to his neighbour’s wife; whoever toucheth her shall not be innocent.
4 And they said, Moses permitted to write a bill of divorcement, and to put her away.
5 And Jesus answered and said to them, For the hardness of your heart he wrote you this precept.
6 But from the beginning of the creation God made them male and female.
7 For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and cleave to his wife;
8 And they two shall be one flesh: so then they are no more two, but one flesh.
9 What therefore God hath joined together, let not man separate.
13 And he shall take a wife in her virginity.
14 A widow, or a divorced woman, or profane, or an harlot, these shall he not take: but he shall take a virgin of his own people for a wife.

13 If a man also shall lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.
2 For true and righteous are his judgments: for he hath judged the great harlot, who corrupted the earth with her immorality, and hath avenged the blood of his servants at her hand.
4 Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up, vaunteth…: or, is not rash

7 Thou art all fair, my love; there is no spot in thee.
6 If any is blameless, the husband of one wife, having faithful children not accused of dissipation or rebellion.

9 Two are better than one; because they have a good reward for their labour.
10 For if they fall, the one will lift up his companion: but woe to him that is alone when he falleth; for he hath not another to help him to rise.
11 Again, if two lie together, then they have heat: but how can one be warm alone?
12 And if one prevaileth against him, two shall withstand him; and a threefold cord is not quickly broken.
2 A bishop then must be blameless, the husband of one wife, temperate, sober minded, of good behaviour, given to hospitality, apt to teach; of good…: or, modest

24 Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave to his wife: and they shall be one flesh.
5 And said, For this cause shall a man leave father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife: and they two shall be one flesh?
6 Therefore they are no more two, but one flesh. Therefore what God hath joined together, let not man put asunder.
14 Thou shalt not commit adultery.
3 For this is the will of God, even your sanctification, that ye should abstain from immorality:
4 That each one of you should know how to possess his vessel in sanctification and honour;
5 Not in the lust of passion, even as the Gentiles who know not God:
8 The nakedness of thy father’s wife shalt thou not uncover: it is thy father’s nakedness.
20 Moreover thou shalt not lie carnally with thy neighbour’s wife, to defile thyself with her.
28 So ought men to love their wives as their own bodies. He that loveth his wife loveth himself.
36 Thus saith the Lord GOD; Because thy filthiness was poured out, and thy nakedness uncovered through thy harlotries with thy lovers, and with all the idols of thy abominations, and by the blood of thy children, which thou didst give to them;
37 Behold, therefore I will gather all thy lovers, with whom thou hast taken pleasure, and all them that thou hast loved, with all them that thou hast hated; I will even gather them on every side against thee, and will uncover thy nakedness to them, that they may see all thy nakedness.
