Ver. 2. While they behold your chaste conversation,.... Cheerful
subjection, strong affection, and inviolable attachment to them, and
strict regard to the honour of the marriage state, and to the preserving
of the bed undefiled with lusts and adulteries:

coupled with fear; with reverence of their husbands, giving them due
honour, and showing all proper respect; or with the fear of God, which
being before their eyes, and upon their hearts, engages them to such an
agreeable conversation.
