But (B)from the beginning of creation, ‘God made them (C)male and female.’ (D)‘Therefore a man shall leave his father and mother and hold fast to his wife,[a] and (E)the two shall become one flesh.’ So they are no longer two but one flesh. (F)What therefore God has joined together, let not man separate.”
