Ephesians 5:26 in Context — Ephesians 5

24 Or, de même que l’Église est soumise à Christ, les femmes aussi doivent l’être à leurs maris en toutes choses.

25 Maris, aimez vos femmes, comme Christ a aimé l’Église, et s’est livré lui-même pour elle,

26 afin de la sanctifier par la parole, après l’avoir purifiée par le baptême d’eau,

27 afin de faire paraître devant lui cette Église glorieuse, sans tache, ni ride, ni rien de semblable, mais sainte et irrépréhensible.

28 C’est ainsi que les maris doivent aimer leurs femmes comme leurs propres corps. Celui qui aime sa femme s’aime lui-même.
