The King James Version Bible

Ephesians 5:29-33

  1. For no man ever yet hated his own flesh; but nourisheth and cherisheth it, even as the Lord the church:

  2. For we are members of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones.

  3. 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.

  4. This is a great mystery: but I speak concerning Christ and the church.

  5. Nevertheless let every one of you in particular so love his wife even as himself; and the wife see that she reverence her husband.
