Matthew 19:4-6

EasyEnglish Bible

⁴ Jesus replied, ‘You surely have read about this in the Bible. At the start, when God created the world, he made people male and female.^{[a] 5} Because of this, a man leaves his father and his mother. God joins him and his wife together. The man and the woman become like one body. ⁶ They are not two separate people any longer. They have come together as one person. God has put them together to be husband and wife. So nobody should make them separate.’
