Ephesians 5:23-27
English Standard Version
23 For (A)the husband is the head of the wife even as (B)Christ is the head of the church, his body, and is (C)himself its Savior. 24 Now as the church submits to Christ, so also wives should submit (D)in everything to their husbands.
25 (E)Husbands, love your wives, as Christ loved the church and (F)gave himself up for her, 26 that he might sanctify her, having cleansed her by (G)the washing of water (H)with the word, 27 so (I)that he might present the church to himself in splendor, (J)without spot or wrinkle or any such thing, that she might be holy and without blemish.[a]
