Ephesians 5:17-33

17 Therefore do not ye be made unwise, but understanding which is the will of God [which is the will of the Lord].

18 And do not ye be drunk of wine, in which is lechery [in which is luxury], but be ye filled with the Holy Ghost;

19 and speak ye to yourselves in psalms, and hymns, and spiritual songs, singing and saying psalm in your hearts to the Lord; [speaking to yourselves in psalms, and hymns, and spiritual songs, singing and saying psalm in your heart to the Lord;]

20 evermore doing thankings for all things in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ to God and to the Father [to God and the Father.]

21 Be ye subject together in the dread of Christ.

22 Women, be they subject to their husbands, as to the Lord,

23 for the man is head of the woman, as Christ is head of the church; he is Saviour of his body.

24 But as the church is subject to Christ, so [and] women to their husbands in all things.

25 Men, love ye your wives, as [and] Christ loved the church, and gave himself for it,

26 to make it holy; and cleansed it with the washing of water [that he should make it holy; cleansing it with the washing of water], in the word of life,

27 to give the church glorious to himself, that it had no wem, nor rivelling, or any such thing[a], but that it be holy and undefouled.

28 So and men shall love their wives, as their own bodies. He that loveth his wife, loveth himself;

29 for no man hated ever his own flesh, but nourisheth and fostereth it, as [and] Christ doeth the church.

30 And we be members of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones. [For we be members of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones.]

31 For this thing a man shall forsake his father and mother, and he shall draw to his wife; and they shall be twain in one flesh [and he shall cleave to his wife; and they shall be two in one flesh].

32 This sacrament is great; yea, I say in Christ, and in the church.

33 Nevertheless ye all, each man love his wife as himself; and the wife dread her husband.
