Amor de Casal

9 Two are better than one, because they have a good reward for their labor.

10 For if they fall, the one will lift up his fellow, but woe to him who is alone when he falls, and has not another to lift him up.

11 Again, if two lay together, then they have warmth, but how can one be warm [alone]?

12 And if a man prevails against him who is alone, two shall withstand him. And a threefold cord is not quickly broken.


18 And LORD God said, It is not good that the man should be alone, I will make a help meet for him.


9 Thou have ravished my heart, my sister, [my] bride. Thou have ravished my heart with one of thine eyes, with one chain of thy neck.


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


14 and above all these things, love, which is the bond of perfection.


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,


2 Let him kiss me with the kisses of his mouth, for thy love is better than wine.

3 Thine oils have a good fragrance. Thy name is oil poured forth. Therefore the virgins love thee.


6 Set me as a seal upon thy heart, as a seal upon thine arm. For love is strong as death, jealousy is cruel as Sheol. The flashes of it are flashes of fire, a most vehement flame.

7 Many waters cannot quench love, nor can floods drown it. If a man would give all the substance of his house for love, he would be utterly scorned.


6 So that they are no longer two, but one flesh. What therefore God has joined together, no man shall separate.


5 When a man takes a new wife, he shall not go out in the army, neither shall he be charged with any business. He shall be free at home one year, and shall cheer his wife whom he has taken.


15 Behold, thou are fair, my love, behold thou are fair. Thine eyes are doves.

16 Behold, thou are fair, my beloved, yea, pleasant. Also our couch is green.


22 He who finds a wife finds a good thing, and obtains favor from LORD.


18 Let thy fountain be blessed, and rejoice in the wife of thy youth:

19 a loving hind and a pleasant doe. Let her breasts satisfy thee at all times, and be thou ravished always with her love.

20 For why should thou, my son, be ravished with an interloping woman, and embrace the bosom of a stranger?


4 Love is patient and is kind. Love does not envy. Love does not brag, and is not puffed up.

5 It does not behave improperly, does not seek the things of itself, is not made sharp, does not contemplate evil,

6 does not rejoice in wrong but rejoices in the truth,

7 covers all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.


22 And the rib, which LORD God had taken from the man, he made a woman, and brought her to the man.

23 And the man said, This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh. She shall be called Woman, because she was taken out of Man.

24 Therefore a man shall leave his father and his mother, and shall cling to his wife, and the two (LXX/NT) shall be one flesh.


15 And did he not make one, although he had the residue of the Spirit? And why one? He sought a godly seed. Therefore take heed to your spirit, and let none deal treacherously against the wife of his youth.
