Husbands Wives and Children

Ephesians Chapter 5


5:21 Submitting yourselves one to another in the fear of God.    
5:22 Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as unto the Lord.    
5:23 For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church: and he is the saviour of the body.    
5:24 Therefore as the church is subject unto Christ, so let the wives be to their own husbands in every thing.    
5:25 Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it;    
5:26 That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word,    
5:27 That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish.    
5:28 So ought men to love their wives as their own bodies. He that loveth his wife loveth himself.    
5:29 For no man ever yet hated his own flesh; but nourisheth and cherisheth it, even as the Lord the church:    
5:30 For we are members of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones.    
5:31 For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall be joined unto his wife, and they two shall be one flesh.    
5:32 This is a great mystery: but I speak concerning Christ and the church.    
5:33 Nevertheless let every one of you in particular so love his wife even as himself; and the wife see that she reverence her husband.    
6:1 Children, obey your parents in the Lord: for this is right.    
6:2 Honour thy father and mother; which is the first commandment with promise;    
6:3 That it may be well with thee, and thou mayest live long on the earth.    
6:4 And, ye fathers, provoke not your children to wrath: but bring them up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord.
