Ephesians 5:28
So ought men to love their wives as their own bodies. He that loveth his wife loveth himself.

וַיַּפֵּל יְהוָה אֱלֹהִים׀ תַּרְדֵּמָה עַל-הָאָדָם וַיִּישָׁן וַיִּקַּח אַחַת מִצַּלְעֹתָיו וַיִּסְגֹּר בָּשָׂר תַּחְתֶּֽנָּה׃
And the LORD God caused a deep sleep to fall upon Adam, and he slept: and he took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh instead thereof;
καὶ εἶπεν ἕνεκεν τούτου καταλείψει ἄνθρωπος τὸν πατέρα καὶ τὴν μητέρα καὶ προσκολληθήσεται τῇ γυναικὶ αὐτοῦ καὶ ἔσονται οἱ δύο εἰς σάρκα μίαν
And said, For this cause shall a man leave father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife: and they shall twain be one flesh?
Οἱ ἄνδρες ἀγαπᾶτε τὰς γυναῖκας ἑαυτῶν καθὼς καὶ ὁ Χριστὸς ἠγάπησεν τὴν ἐκκλησίαν καὶ ἑαυτὸν παρέδωκεν ὑπὲρ αὐτῆς
Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it;
πλὴν καὶ ὑμεῖς οἱ καθ' ἕνα ἕκαστος τὴν ἑαυτοῦ γυναῖκα οὕτως ἀγαπάτω ὡς ἑαυτόν ἡ δὲ γυνὴ ἵνα φοβῆται τὸν ἄνδρα
Nevertheless let every one of you in particular so love his wife even as himself; and the wife see that she reverence her husband.
ἀντὶ τούτου καταλείψει ἄνθρωπος τὸν πατέρα αὐτοῦ καὶ τὴν μητέρα καὶ προσκολληθήσεται πρὸς τὴν γυναῖκα αὐτοῦ καὶ ἔσονται οἱ δύο εἰς σάρκα μίαν
For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall be joined unto his wife, and they shall two be one flesh.
