28 So ought the husbands to love their own wives as their own bodies. He who loves his own wife loves himself.

29 For no man ever hated his own flesh, but nourishes and cherishes it, just as also Christ the church,

30 because we are parts of his body, of his flesh and of his bones.

31 Separate from this a man will leave his father and mother behind, and will be bonded with his wife, and the two will be in one flesh.

32 This mystery is great, but I speak for Christ and for the church.

33 Nevertheless ye also, each one in particular, shall so love his own wife as himself, and the wife that she fear her husband.
