LEB⁽ⁱ⁾ 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.* ⁷ Because of this a man will leave his father and mother and will be joined to his wife,* ⁸ and the two will become one flesh,'* so that they are no longer two but one flesh. ⁹ Therefore what God has joined together, man must not separate."
