Sirach 6:7
Wives, submit your selves unto your own husbands, as unto the Lord.
23For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the Church: and he is the saviour of the body.
24Therefore as the Church is subject unto Christ, so let the wives be to their own husbands in every thing.
25Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the Church, and gave himselfe for it:
Ephesians 5:22-25
Wives, submit your selves vnto your own husbands, as it is fit in the Lord.
19Husbands, love your wives, and be not bitter against them.
Colossians 3:18-19
1Now concerning the things wherof ye wrote unto me, It is good for a man not to touch a woman.
2Nevmerthelesse, to aoid fornication, let every man have his own wife, and let every woman have her own husband.
3Let the husband render unto the wife due benevolence: and likewise also the wife unto the husband.
4The wife hath not power of her own body, but the husband: and likewise also the husband hath not power of his own body, but the wife.
5Defraud you not one the other, except it be with consent for a time, that ye may give your selves to fasting and prayer, and come together again, that Satan tempt you not for your inconsistence
1 Corinthians 7:1-5
1Likewise, ye wives, be in subjection to your own husbands, that if any obey not the word, they also may without the word be won by the conversation of the wives:
2While they behold your chaste conversation coupled with fear
3Whose adorning, let it not be that outward adorning, of plaiting the hair, and of wearing of gold, or of putting on of apparel.
4But let it be the hidden man of the heart, in that which is not corruptible, even the ornament of a meek and quiet spirit, which is in the sight of God of great price.
5For after this manner in the old time, the holy women also who trusted in God adorned themselves, being in subjection unto their own husbands.
6Even as Sara obeyed Abraham, calling him Lord, whose daughters ye are as long as ye do well, and are not afraid with any amazement.
7Likewise ye husbands, dwell with them according to knowledge, giving honour unto the wife as unto the weaker vessel, and as being heires together of the grace of life, that your prayers be not hindered.
1st Peter 3:1-7
