妻子与丈夫

22 你们做妻子的,要服从[a]自己的丈夫,如同服从主, 23 因为丈夫是妻子的头,正如基督是教会的头;他也是这身体的救主。 24 而且教会怎样服从基督,妻子也照样要在一切事上服从[b]丈夫。 25 你们做丈夫的,要爱自己的妻子,就像基督也爱了教会,为她舍弃了自己。 26 基督这么做[c],是要藉着话语,用水[d]的洗涤而洁净教会,使她分别为圣, 27 为要给自己预备一个荣耀的教会,没有污渍、皱纹或任何这类的事,却要她成为圣洁、毫无瑕疵。 28 照样,丈夫也应该爱自己的妻子,就像爱自己的身体一样;那爱自己妻子的,就是爱自己。 29 从来没有人恨恶自己的身体,总是保养、顾惜它,就像基督[e]对待教会那样, 30 因为我们是基督身体的各个部分[f][g]

31 “为这缘故,人将离开父母,
与妻子结合,
两个人就成为一体。”[h]

32 这是极大的奥秘,但我是指着基督和教会说的。 33 不过,你们每一个人也要爱自己的妻子,就像爱自己一样;而妻子要敬重[i]丈夫。

22 Wives, submit yourselves to your own husbands(A) as you do to the Lord.(B) 23 For the husband is the head of the wife as Christ is the head of the church,(C) his body, of which he is the Savior. 24 Now as the church submits to Christ, so also wives should submit to their husbands(D) in everything.

25 Husbands, love your wives,(E) just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her(F) 26 to make her holy,(G) cleansing[a] her by the washing(H) with water through the word, 27 and to present her to himself(I) as a radiant church, without stain or wrinkle or any other blemish, but holy and blameless.(J) 28 In this same way, husbands ought to love their wives(K) as their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself. 29 After all, no one ever hated their own body, but they feed and care for their body, just as Christ does the church— 30 for we are members of his body.(L) 31 “For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh.”[b](M) 32 This is a profound mystery—but I am talking about Christ and the church. 33 However, each one of you also must love his wife(N) as he loves himself, and the wife must respect her husband.

  1. Ephesians 5:26 Or having cleansed
  2. Ephesians 5:31 Gen. 2:24

22 Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as unto the Lord.

23 For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church: and he is the saviour of the body.

24 Therefore as the church is subject unto Christ, so let the wives be to their own husbands in every thing.

25 Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it;

26 That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word,

27 That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish.

28 So ought men to love their wives as their own bodies. He that loveth his wife loveth himself.

29 For no man ever yet hated his own flesh; but nourisheth and cherisheth it, even as the Lord the church:

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

31 For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall be joined unto his wife, and they two shall be one flesh.

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

33 Nevertheless let every one of you in particular so love his wife even as himself; and the wife see that she reverence her husband.
