Ephesians 5:27-29

Jubilee Bible 2000

²⁷ that he might present her glorious for himself, a congregation, {Gr. ekklesia – called out ones} not having spot or wrinkle or any such thing, but that she should be holy and without blemish.

²⁸ So ought husbands to love their wives as their own bodies. He that loves his wife loves himself.

²⁹ For no one ever hated his own flesh, but nourishes and cherishes it even as the Lord with his congregation. {Gr. ekklesia – called out ones}
