Mark 10:1-12

2 And some Pharisees came up to Jesus, testing Him, and began to question Him whether it was lawful for a man to ¹divorce a wife. 3 And He answered and said to them, “What did Moses command you?” 4 And they said, “^aMoses permitted a man to write a certificate of divorce and ¹send her away.” 5 But Jesus said to them, “¹^aBecause of your hardness of heart he wrote for you this commandment. 6 But ^afrom the beginning of creation, God ^bmade them male and female. 7 ^aFor this reason a man shall leave his father and mother¹, 8 ^aand the two shall become one flesh; so they are no longer two, but one flesh. 9 What therefore God has joined together, let no man separate.”
10 And in the house the disciples began questioning Him about this again. 11 And He *said to them, “^aWhoever ¹divorces his wife and marries another woman commits adultery against her; 12 and ^aif she herself ¹divorces her husband and marries another man, she is committing adultery.”
