Ephesians 5:21-33

Each of you should be willing to accept what others tell you to do out of reverence for Christ. Wives, do what your own husbands tell you to do, as you would if the Lord told you. The husband is head of the wife in the same way as Christ is head of the church—his body and its savior. In the same way that the church does what Christ says, wives should do what their husbands tell them in all things. Husbands, you should love your wives in the same way as Christ loved the church and gave himself for it. He made it holy, he made it clean by washing in the water of the word, so that he could make the church his own, with no flaw or blemish or any kind of fault, but holy and blameless. Husbands should love their wives just like this, as they love their own bodies. A man who loves his wife loves himself— for no one ever hated his own body, but feeds it and looks after it, just as Christ does for the church, for we are parts of his body. “This is why a man leaves his father and mother, and is joined to his wife, and the two are united in one.” This is a deep hidden truth—but I'm talking about Christ and the church. However, each husband should love his own wife as he does himself, and the wife should respect her husband.
