Mark 10:2-12
2 Some Pharisees came up to Jesus, testing Him, and began to question Him whether it was lawful for a man to (a)divorce a wife.
3 And He answered and said to them, “What did Moses command you?”
4 They said, “(A)Moses permitted a man to write a certificate of divorce and (b)send her away.”
5 But Jesus said to them, “(c)(B)Because of your hardness of heart he wrote you this commandment.
6 But (C)from the beginning of creation, God (D)made them male and female.
7 (E)For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother(d),
8 (F)and the two shall become one flesh; so they are no longer two, but one flesh.
9 What therefore God has joined together, let no man separate.”
10 In the house the disciples began questioning Him about this again.
11 And He *said to them, “(G)Whoever (e)divorces his wife and marries another woman commits adultery against her;
12 and (H)if she herself (f)divorces her husband and marries another man, she is committing adultery.”
