21 He will forget his father, his mother, and his country to spend the rest of his life with his wife.

1 Esdras 4:21 In-Context

19 they will leave it all to gape and stare, and they will desire her more than their wealth.
20 A man will leave his own father, who brought him up, and leave his own country to get married.
21 He will forget his father, his mother, and his country to spend the rest of his life with his wife.
22 So you must recognize that women are your masters. Don't you work and sweat and then take all that you have earned and give it to your wives?
