Ephesians 5:25-33
English Standard Version
25 (A)Husbands, love your wives, as Christ loved the church and (B)gave himself up for her, 26 that he might sanctify her, having cleansed her by (C)the washing of water (D)with the word, 27 so (E)that he might present the church to himself in splendor, (F)without spot or wrinkle or any such thing, that she might be holy and without blemish.[a] 28 In the same way (G)husbands should love their wives as their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself. 29 For no one ever hated his own flesh, but nourishes and cherishes it, just as Christ does the church, 30 because (H)we are members of his body. 31 (I)“Therefore a man shall leave his father and mother and hold fast to his wife, and (J)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, (K)let each one of you love his wife as himself, and let the wife see that she (L)respects her husband.

Ephesians 5:25-33
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. 33 However, each one of you also must love his wife(J) as he loves himself, and the wife must respect her husband.
