Ephesians 5:23
| ← Ephesians 5:22 | Ephesians 5:23 (KJV) | Ephesians 5:24 → |
|---|---|---|
Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as unto the Lord.
|
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.
|
Therefore as the church is subject unto Christ, so let the wives be to their own husbands in every thing.
