Matthew 19:5-7

Worldwide English (New Testament)

⁵ God said, "A man must leave his father and mother and must stay with his wife. The two of them will be like one person."

⁶ So they are not two people any more, but they are one person. Man must not separate what God has joined together.'

⁷ They said to Jesus, `Then why did Moses make this law? He said that a man may give his wife a paper to show that he does not want her any more. Then he may send her away.'
