Ephesians 5:29-33

English Standard Version

²⁹ For no one ever hated his own flesh, but nourishes and cherishes it, just as Christ does the church, ³⁰ because ^(A)we are members of his body. ^31 (B)“Therefore a man shall leave his father and mother and hold fast to his wife, and ^(C)the two shall become one flesh.” ³² This mystery is profound, and I am saying that it refers to Christ and the church. ³³ However, ^(D)let each one of you love his wife as himself, and let the wife see that she ^(E)respects her husband.
