Matthew 19:7-9

Common English Bible

⁷ The Pharisees said to him, “Then why did Moses command us to give a divorce certificate and divorce her?”^[a]

⁸ Jesus replied, “Moses allowed you to divorce your wives because your hearts are unyielding. But it wasn’t that way from the beginning. ⁹ I say to you that whoever divorces his wife, except for sexual unfaithfulness, and marries another woman commits adultery.”
