¹⁶ “For God so ^(A)loved the world, that He ^(B)gave His ^(C)only Son, so that everyone who ^(D)believes in Him will not perish, but have eternal life.

¹⁴ Do all things without ^(A)complaining or arguments; ¹⁵ so that you will ^[a]prove yourselves to be ^(B)blameless and innocent, ^(C)children of God above reproach in the midst of a ^(D)crooked and perverse generation, among whom you ^[b](E)appear as ^[c]lights in the world, ¹⁶ holding firmly the word of life, so that on ^(F)the day of Christ I can take pride because I did not ^(G)run in vain nor ^(H)labor in vain.

² For I am jealous for you with a godly jealousy; for I ^(A)betrothed you to one husband, to ^(B)present you as a pure virgin to Christ.

²⁷ that He might ^(A)present to Himself the church ^[a]in all her glory, having no spot or wrinkle or any such thing; but that she would be ^(B)holy and blameless.

Marriage of the Lamb

⁷ Let’s rejoice and be glad and ^(A)give the glory to Him, because ^(B)the marriage of the Lamb has come, and His ^[a](C)bride has prepared herself.”
