28 So men ought to love their wives as their [own] bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself.

29 For no man ever yet hated his [own] flesh, but nourishes and cherishes it, even as the Lord loves the church.

30 For we are members of His body, of His flesh, and of His bones.

31 For this cause a man shall leave his father and mother and shall be joined to his wife, and the two of them shall be one flesh.

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

33 But also let everyone of you in particular so love his wife even as himself, and the wife that she defers to her husband.
