Discussion about Divorce and Marriage
19 When Jesus had finished saying these things, he left Galilee and went down to the region of Judea east of the Jordan River. 2 Large crowds followed him there, and he healed their sick.
3 Some Pharisees came and tried to trap him with this question: “Should a man be allowed to divorce his wife for just any reason?”
4 “Haven’t you read the Scriptures?” Jesus replied. “They record that from the beginning ‘God made them male and female.’[a]” 5 And he said, “‘This explains why a man leaves his father and mother and is joined to his wife, and the two are united into one.’[b] 6 Since they are no longer two but one, let no one split apart what God has joined together.”
7 “Then why did Moses say in the law that a man could give his wife a written notice of divorce and send her away?”[c] they asked.
8 Jesus replied, “Moses permitted divorce only as a concession to your hard hearts, but it was not what God had originally intended. 9 And I tell you this, whoever divorces his wife and marries someone else commits adultery—unless his wife has been unfaithful.[d]”

Discusión acerca del divorcio y del matrimonio
19 Cuando Jesús terminó de decir esas cosas, salió de Galilea y descendió a la región de Judea, al oriente del río Jordán. 2 Grandes multitudes lo siguieron, y él sanó a los enfermos.
3 Unos fariseos se acercaron y trataron de tenderle una trampa con la siguiente pregunta:
—¿Se permite que un hombre se divorcie de su esposa por cualquier motivo?
4 Jesús respondió:
—¿No han leído las Escrituras? Allí está escrito que, desde el principio, “Dios los hizo hombre y mujer”[a] . 5 —Y agregó—: “Esto explica por qué el hombre deja a su padre y a su madre, y se une a su esposa, y los dos se convierten en uno solo”[b]. 6 Como ya no son dos sino uno, que nadie separe lo que Dios ha unido.
7 —Entonces—preguntaron—, ¿por qué dice Moisés en la ley que un hombre podría darle a su esposa un aviso de divorcio por escrito y despedirla?[c]
8 Jesús contestó:
—Moisés permitió el divorcio solo como una concesión ante la dureza del corazón de ustedes, pero no fue la intención original de Dios. 9 Y les digo lo siguiente: el que se divorcia de su esposa y se casa con otra comete adulterio, a menos que la esposa le haya sido infiel.[d]

Divorce(A)
19 When Jesus had finished saying these things,(B) he left Galilee and went into the region of Judea to the other side of the Jordan. 2 Large crowds followed him, and he healed them(C) there.
3 Some Pharisees came to him to test him. They asked, “Is it lawful for a man to divorce his wife(D) for any and every reason?”
4 “Haven’t you read,” he replied, “that at the beginning the Creator ‘made them male and female,’[a](E) 5 and said, ‘For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh’[b]?(F) 6 So they are no longer two, but one flesh. Therefore what God has joined together, let no one separate.”
7 “Why then,” they asked, “did Moses command that a man give his wife a certificate of divorce and send her away?”(G)
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.”(H)
