Ephesians 5:22

22 Wives, place yourselves under your husbands' authority as you have placed yourselves under the Lord's authority.

Ephesians 5:22 In-Context

20 Always thank God the Father for everything in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.
21 Place yourselves under each other's authority out of respect for Christ.
22 Wives, place yourselves under your husbands' authority as you have placed yourselves under the Lord's authority.
23 The husband is the head of his wife as Christ is the head of the church. It is his body, and he is its Savior.
24 As the church is under Christ's authority, so wives are under their husbands' authority in everything.
