  1. Matthew 5:31 Deut. 24:1

(A)Yesu n’abaddamu nti, “Temusomanga nti, ‘Okuva ku lubereberye Katonda yatonda omusajja n’omukazi,’ (B)era nti, ‘Omusajja anaalekanga kitaawe ne nnyina, ne yeegatta ne mukazi we. Nabo banaabanga omuntu omu, nga tebakyali babiri naye omuntu omu.’ Noolwekyo Katonda be yagatta awamu, omuntu tabaawukanyanga.”

(D)Era mbagamba nti omuntu yenna anaagobanga mukazi we okuggyako olw’obwenzi, n’amala awasa omulala, anaabanga ayenze, n’oyo anaawasanga oyo agobeddwa anaabanga ayenze.”

Therefore what God has joined together, let no one separate.”

“Why then,” they asked, “did Moses command that a man give his wife a certificate of divorce and send her away?”(C)

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