4 They said, Moses permitted a man to write a certificate of divorce, and to put her away.

5 And Jesus answered and said to them, Because of the hardness of your heart he wrote you this precept.

6 But from the beginning of the creation, God made them male and female.

7 For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and cleave to his wife,

8 and the two shall become one flesh; so then they are no longer two, but one flesh.

9 Therefore what God has yoked together, let not man separate.
