4. And he answered and said to them, Have ye not read, that he who made them, at the beginning made them male and female,
5. And said, For this cause shall a man leave father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife: and they two shall be one flesh?
6. Wherefore they are no more two, but one flesh. Therefore what God hath joined together, let not man put asunder.
7. They say to him, Why did Moses then command to give a writing of divorcement, and to put her away?
8. He saith to them, Moses, because of the hardness of your hearts, suffered you to put away your wives: but from the beginning it was not so.
9. And I say to you, Whoever shall put away his wife, except for lewdness, and shall marry another, committeth adultery: and whoever marrieth her who is put away, committeth adultery.
10. His disciples say to him, If the case of the man is so with his wife, it is not good to marry.
