Husbands, love your wives, and use no asperity against them.

Remember those who are in chains, as in chains with them; and those who are suffering afflictions, as being yourselves also in the body.

BUT this know, that in the last days distressing times will come. For men will be self-lovers, money-lovers, boasters, vainglorious, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, unnatural, implacable, slanderers, intemperate, inhuman, averse to goodness,read more.
treacherous, wilful, puffed up [with pride], lovers of pleasure more than lovers of God; holding the form of godliness, but denying the power of it: from these men turn with aversion. For such are they who insinuate themselves into houses, and captivate weak women laden with accumulated sins, and actuated by a variety of passions, always learning, yet never able to attain unto the knowledge of truth.

So ought husbands to love their own wives as their own bodies. He that loveth his own wife loveth himself. For no man ever hated his own flesh; but nourisheth and cherisheth it, even as the Lord the church:

Let all bitterness, and wrath, and anger, and clamour, and scandal, be removed from you, with all malice:

but be ye kind one to another, full of sensibility, forgiving mutually, even as God in Christ hath forgiven you.

If possible, as far as you can, be at peace with all men.

But I say unto you, Whosoever shall put away his wife, except on account of whoredom, causeth her to commit adultery: and whosoever shall marry her that is put away, committeth adultery.

Ye husbands, in like manner dwell with them discreetly, putting respect on the dear woman as being the weaker vessel, and as co-heirs of the grace of life, so that your prayers may meet no interruption.
