Porque torpe cosa es aun hablar de lo que ellos hacen en oculto.

For it is a shame even to speak of those things which are done of them in secret.

For 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.

For no one has ever hated his own flesh, but nourishes and cherishes it, even as also the Christ the assembly:

Porque ninguno aborreció jamás á su propia carne, antes la sustenta y regala, como también Cristo á la iglesia;

For no man ever yet hated his own flesh; but nourisheth and cherisheth it, even as the Lord the church:

For no man ever hated his own flesh, but nourishes and cherishes it, even as the Lord also does the assembly,

“For this cause a man will leave his father and mother and will be joined to his wife. Then the two will become one flesh.”

This mystery is great, but I speak as to Christ, and as to the assembly.

Este misterio grande es: mas yo digo esto con respecto á Cristo y á la iglesia.

This is a great mystery: but I speak concerning Christ and the church.

This mystery is great, but I speak concerning Christ and the assembly.

But ye also, every one of you, let each so love his own wife as himself; but as to the wife †I speak that she may fear the husband.

Cada uno empero de vosotros de por sí, ame también á su mujer como á sí mismo; y la mujer reverencie á su marido.

Nevertheless let every one of you in particular so love his wife even as himself; and the wife see that she reverence her husband.

Nevertheless each of you must also love his own wife even as himself; and let the wife see that she respects her husband.
