Matthew 19:7-9

New International Version - UK

⁷ ‘Why then,’ they asked, ‘did Moses command that a man give his wife a certificate of divorce and send her away?’

⁸ Jesus replied, ‘Moses permitted you to divorce your wives because your hearts were hard. But it was not this way from the beginning. ⁹ I tell you that anyone who divorces his wife, except for sexual immorality, and marries another woman commits adultery.’
