Mark 10:2-12
Lexham English Bible
2 And they asked[a] him if it was permitted for a man to divorce his[b] wife, in order to[c] test him. 3 And he answered and[d] said to them, “What did Moses command you?” 4 So they said, “Moses permitted a man[e] to write a certificate of divorce and to send her[f] away.” 5 But Jesus said to them, “He wrote this commandment for you because of your hardness of heart. 6 But from the beginning of creation ‘he made them male and female.[g] 7 Because of this a man will leave his father and mother and will be joined to his wife,[h] 8 and the two will become one flesh,’[i] so that they are no longer two but one flesh. 9 Therefore what God has joined together, man must not separate.”
10 And in the house again the disciples began to ask[j] him about this. 11 And he said to them, “Whoever divorces his wife and marries another commits adultery against her. 12 And if she divorces her husband and[k] marries another, she commits adultery.”
