22. Wives, submit to your husbands as to the Lord.
23. For the husband is the head of the wife as Christ is the head of the church, his body, of which he is the Savior.
24. Now as the church submits to Christ, so also wives should submit to their husbands in everything.
25. Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her
26. to make her holy, cleansing her by the washing with water through the word,
27. and to present her to himself as a radiant church, without stain or wrinkle or any other blemish, but holy and blameless.
28. In this same way, husbands ought to love their wives as their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself.
29. After all, no one ever hated his own body, but he feeds and cares for it, just as Christ does the church--
30. for we are members of his body.
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."
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 as he loves himself, and the wife must respect her husband.
13. Submit yourselves for the Lord's sake to every authority instituted among men: whether to the king, as the supreme authority,
14. or to governors, who are sent by him to punish those who do wrong and to commend those who do right.
15. For it is God's will that by doing good you should silence the ignorant talk of foolish men.
16. Live as free men, but do not use your freedom as a cover-up for evil; live as servants of God.
17. Show proper respect to everyone: Love the brotherhood of believers, fear God, honor the king.
