Isaiah 62:2-5
New International Version
2 The nations(A) will see your vindication,
and all kings your glory;
you will be called by a new name(B)
that the mouth of the Lord will bestow.
3 You will be a crown(C) of splendor in the Lord’s hand,
a royal diadem in the hand of your God.
4 No longer will they call you Deserted,(D)
or name your land Desolate.(E)
But you will be called Hephzibah,[a](F)
and your land Beulah[b];
for the Lord will take delight(G) in you,
and your land will be married.(H)
5 As a young man marries a young woman,
so will your Builder marry you;
as a bridegroom(I) rejoices over his bride,
so will your God rejoice(J) over you.

Ephesians 5:25-32
New International Version
25 Husbands, love your wives,(A) just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her(B) 26 to make her holy,(C) cleansing[a] her by the washing(D) with water through the word, 27 and to present her to himself(E) as a radiant church, without stain or wrinkle or any other blemish, but holy and blameless.(F) 28 In this same way, husbands ought to love their wives(G) 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.(H) 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](I) 32 This is a profound mystery—but I am talking about Christ and the church.
