17 A friend loves at all times;
and a brother is born for adversity.
8 But if anyone doesn’t provide for his own, and especially his own household, he has denied the faith and is worse than an unbeliever.
19 ‘Honour your father and your mother.’ And, ‘You shall love your neighbour as yourself.’"
12 May the Lord make you to increase and abound in love towards one another and towards all men, even as we also do towards you,
14 House and riches are an inheritance from fathers,
but a prudent wife is from the LORD.
33 Nevertheless each of you must also love his own wife even as himself; and let the wife see that she respects her husband.
10 For am I now seeking the favour of men, or of God? Or am I striving to please men? For if I were still pleasing men, I wouldn’t be a servant of Christ.
18 Wives, be in subjection to your husbands, as is fitting in the Lord.
19 Husbands, love your wives, and don’t be bitter against them.
2 But, because of sexual immoralities, let each man have his own wife, and let each woman have her own husband.
10 Who can find a worthy woman?
For her value is far above rubies.

18 The LORD God said, "It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make him a helper comparable to him."
1 A good name is more desirable than great riches,
and loving favour is better than silver and gold.
10 For if they fall, the one will lift up his fellow; but woe to him who is alone when he falls, and doesn’t have another to lift him up.
22 Wives, be subject to your own husbands, as to the Lord. 23 For the husband is the head of the wife, as Christ also is the head of the assembly, being himself the saviour of the body.
12 Therefore, whatever you desire for men to do to you, you shall also do to them; for this is the law and the prophets.
25 Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the assembly and gave himself up for her, 26 that he might sanctify her, having cleansed her by the washing of water with the word,
9 Two are better than one, because they have a good reward for their labour.
7 You are all beautiful, my love.
There is no spot in you.
12 If a man prevails against one who is alone, two shall withstand him; and a threefold cord is not quickly broken.
28 Even so husbands also ought to love their own wives as their own bodies. He who loves his own wife loves himself.
17 Iron sharpens iron;
so a man sharpens his friend’s countenance.
5 Yes, and for this very cause adding on your part all diligence, in your faith supply moral excellence; and in moral excellence, knowledge; 6 and in knowledge, self-control; and in self-control, perseverance; and in perseverance, godliness; 7 and in godliness, brotherly affection; and in brotherly affection, love.
