Genesis 2:18- And the LORD God said, It is not good that man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him.



Titus 2:3–5 says that the older women in the church are to teach the younger women to be sober, to love their husbands, to love their children, to be discreet, chaste, keepers at home, good, obedient to their own husbands, that the word of God be not blasphemed.



Ephesians 5:22- Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as unto the Lord.



Ephesians 5:24- Therefore as the church is subject unto Christ, so let the wives be to their own husbands in every thing.



Colossians 3:18- Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as it is fit in the Lord.



1Timothy 3:11- Even so must their wives be grave, not slanderers, sober, faithful in all things.



1Peter 3:1–4- Likewise, ye wives, be in subjection to your own husbands; that, if any obey not the word, they also may without the word be won by the conversation of the wives; While they behold your chaste conversation coupled with fear. Whose adorning let it not be that outward adorning of plaiting the hair, and of wearing of gold, or of putting on of apparel; But let it be the hidden man of the heart, in that which is not corruptible, even the ornament of a meek and quiet spirit, which is in the sight of God of great price.

Proverbs 31

I won't post it here because of it length so those interested can crack open their Bible and read it for themselves.
