4 And He answered and said to them, “Have you not read that He who [a]made them at the beginning (A)‘made them male and female,’ 5 and said, (B)‘For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and (C)the two shall become one flesh’? 6 So then, they are no longer two but one flesh. Therefore what God has joined together, let not man separate.”
