Matthew 19:7-9

Modern English Version

⁷ They said to Him, “Then why did Moses command to give a certificate of divorce, and to send her away?”^[a]

⁸ He said to them, “Moses, for the hardness of your hearts, permitted you to divorce your wives, but from the beginning it was not so. ⁹ But I say to you, whoever divorces his wife, except for sexual immorality, and marries another, commits adultery. And whoever marries her who is divorced commits adultery.”
