¹⁹Husbands, loue your wiues, and be not bitter against them.

²⁵Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it;

²⁶That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word,

²⁷That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish.

⁵And said, ^*For this cause shall a man leaue father and mother, and shall cleaue to his wife: and ^*they twaine shalbe one flesh.

⁶Wherefore they are no more twaine, but one flesh. What therefore God hath ioyned together, let not man put asunder.

⁷They say vnto him, ^*Why did Moses then command to giue a writing of diuorcement, and to put her away?

^9*And I say vnto you, Whosoeuer shall put away his wife, except it be for fornication, and shall marry another, committeth adultery: and whoso marrieth her which is put away, doth commit adultery.
