Wives and Husbands

3 Likewise, wives, ^(A)be subject to your own husbands, so that ^(B)even if some do not obey the word, ^(C)they may be won without a word by the conduct of their wives, ² when they see your ^(D)respectful and pure conduct.

^31 (A)“Therefore a man shall leave his father and mother and hold fast to his wife, and ^(B)the two shall become one flesh.” ³² This mystery is profound, and I am saying that it refers to Christ and the church. ³³ However, ^(C)let each one of you love his wife as himself, and let the wife see that she ^(D)respects her husband.
