25 Husbands, you should love your wives in the same way as Christ loved the church and gave himself for it.

33 However, each husband should love his own wife as he does himself, and the wife should respect her husband.

28 Husbands should love their wives just like this, as they love their own bodies. A man who loves his wife loves himself— 29 for no one ever hated his own body, but feeds it and looks after it, just as Christ does for the church,

25 So reject lies, and tell the truth to each other—for we belong to each other.

26 Don’t sin by getting angry; don’t let evening come and find you still mad— 27 and don’t give the devil any opportunity.

29 Don’t use bad language. Speak words that will encourage people as necessary, so that those who listen will be helped.

31 Get rid of every kind of bitterness, rage, anger, verbal abuse, and insults, along with all forms of evil. 32 Be kind and compassionate to each other, forgiving one another, just as God in Christ forgave you.

6 Now they’re no longer two, but one. What God has joined together no one should separate."

15 But if you don’t want to worship the Lord, choose today who you want to worship! Is it going to be the gods your forefathers worshiped beyond the Euphrates? Or the gods of the Amorites in whose land you’re now living? But as for me and my family, we will worship the Lord!"

4 Everyone should honor marriage. Husbands and wives should be faithful to each other.* God will judge adulterers.

18 You married women, respect your husbands appropriately in the Lord. 19 You married men, love your wives and don’t treat them badly.

14 Above all, love one another, which is the perfect bond that will hold you together. 15 May the peace of Christ direct your thinking, because you were called to this by God who makes you one, and thank God for it!

12 Since you are God’s special people, holy and dearly loved, adopt a sympathetic nature that is kind, humble, gentle, and patient. 13 Be patient with one another, forgive others among you if you have grievances against one another. Just as the Lord forgave you, you should do the same.

4 Love is patient and kind. Love is not jealous. Love is not boastful. Love is not proud. 5 Love does not act improperly, or insist on having its own way. Love is not argumentative and doesn’t keep a record of wrongs. 6 Love takes no delight in evil but celebrates the truth. 7 Love never gives up, keeps on trusting, stays confident, and remains patient whatever happens.

10 These are my instructions to those who are married—in fact not from me but the Lord: The wife should not leave her husband 11 (or if she does, she should not remarry, or she should return to her husband); and the husband should not leave his wife.*

3 The husband should meet his wife’s sexual needs, and the wife her husband’s. 4 The wife’s body doesn’t just belong to her, but her husband; and similarly the husband’s body doesn’t just belong to him but his wife. 5 So don’t deprive each other, except by mutual consent for a while—for example because you want to spend time in prayer. Afterwards come together again so that Satan won’t tempt you to sin because of your lack of self-control.

3 Don’t do anything from a spirit of selfishness or pride, but humbly think of others better than you do of yourself. 4 None of you should be preoccupied about your own things—instead concern yourself with the interests of others too.

15 Make sure none of you pays back evil for evil, but always try to do good to one another, and to everyone.

8 Most of all, you should love one another very deeply, for love covers many of the wrong things people do.

22 If you find a wife, that’s great, and you’ll be blessed by the Lord.
