Matthew:19:1-12
asv@Matthew:19:1 @And it came to pass when Jesus had finished these words, he departed from Galilee, and came into the borders of Judaea beyond the Jordan;
asv@Matthew:19:2 @and great multitudes followed him; and he healed them there.
asv@Matthew:19:3 @And there came unto him Pharisees, trying him, and saying, Is it lawful [for a man] to put away his wife for every cause?
asv@Matthew:19:4 @And he answered and said, Have ye not read, that he who made [them] from the beginning made them male and female,
asv@Matthew:19:5 @and said, For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife; and the two shall become one flesh?
asv@Matthew:19:6 @So that they are no more two, but one flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder.
asv@Matthew:19:7 @They say unto him, Why then did Moses command to give a bill of divorcement, and to put [her] away?
asv@Matthew:19:8 @He saith unto them, Moses for your hardness of heart suffered you to put away your wives: but from the beginning it hath not been so.
asv@Matthew:19:9 @And I say unto you, Whosoever shall put away his wife, except for fornication, and shall marry another, committeth adultery: and he that marrieth her when she is put away committeth adultery.
asv@Matthew:19:10 @The disciples say unto him, If the case of the man is so with his wife, it is not expedient to marry.
asv@Matthew:19:11 @But he said unto them, Not all men can receive this saying, but they to whom it is given.
asv@Matthew:19:12 @For there are eunuchs, that were so born from their mother's womb: and there are eunuchs, that were made eunuchs by men: and there are eunuchs, that made themselves eunuchs for the kingdom of heaven's sake. He that is able to receive it, let him receive it.
