Ephesians 5

American Standard-ASV1901 (ASV)

22 Ref Wives, `be in subjection' unto your own husbands, as unto the Lord.

23 Ref For the husband is the head of the wife, and Christ also is the head of the church, `being' himself the saviour of the body.

24 Ref But as the church is subject to Christ, so `let' the wives also `be' to their husbands in everything.

Young's Literal Translation (YLT)

22 Ref The wives! to your own husbands subject yourselves, as to the Lord,

23 Ref because the husband is head of the wife, as also the Christ `is' head of the assembly, and he is saviour of the body,

24 Ref but even as the assembly is subject to Christ, so also `are' the wives to their own husbands in everything.
