Singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord Giving thanks always concerning all things In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ to God even the Father Subjecting yourselves to one another in the fear of Christ
Wives be subject to your own husbands as to the Lord Husbands love your wives even as Christ also loved the assembly And gave himself up for her that he might sanctify her
That he might present the assembly to himself gloriously Not having spot or wrinkle or any such thing But that she should be holy and without defect For no man ever hated his own flesh But nourishes and cherishes it even as the Lord
