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. |
