20 Giving thanks always for all things to God and the Father, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ;

always giving thanks to God the Father for everything, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.
21 Submitting yourselves one to another in the fear of God.
21
Submit to one another out of reverence for Christ.
22 Wives, submit yourselves to your own husbands, as to the Lord.
22
Wives, submit yourselves to your own husbands as you do to the Lord.
23 For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church: and he is the Savior of the body.
23
For the husband is the head of the wife as Christ is the head of the church, his body, of which he is the Savior.
24 Therefore as the church is subject to Christ, so [let] wives [be] to their own husbands in every thing.
24
Now as the church submits to Christ, so also wives should submit to their husbands in everything.
25 Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it;
25
Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her
26 That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word,
26
to make her holy, cleansing her by the washing with water through the word,
27 That 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.
27
and to present her to himself as a radiant church, without stain or wrinkle or any other blemish, but holy and blameless.
28 So ought men to love their wives, as their own bodies. He that loveth his wife, loveth himself.
28
In this same way, husbands ought to love their wives as their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself.
29 For no man ever yet hated his own flesh; but nourisheth and cherisheth it, even as the Lord the church:
29
After all, no one ever hated their own body, but they feed and care for their body, just as Christ does the church—
30 For we are members of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones.
30
for we are members of his body.
