Bible. Matthew
40:019:001 And it came to pass, that when Jesus had finished these
sayings, he departed from Galilee, and came into the coasts of
Judaea beyond Jordan;
40:019:002 And great multitudes followed him; and he healed them there.
40:019:003 The Pharisees also came unto him, tempting him, and saying
unto him, Is it lawful for a man to put away his wife for
every cause?
40:019:004 And he answered and said unto them, Have ye not read, that he
which made them at the beginning made them male and female,
40:019:005 And said, For this cause shall a man leave father and mother,
and shall cleave to his wife: and they twain shall be one
flesh?
40:019:006 Wherefore they are no more twain, but one flesh. What
therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder.
40:019:007 They say unto him, Why did Moses then command to give a
writing of divorcement, and to put her away?
40:019:008 He saith unto them, Moses because of the hardness of your
hearts suffered you to put away your wives: but from the
beginning it was not so.
40:019:009 And I say unto you, Whosoever shall put away his wife, except
it be for fornication, and shall marry another, committeth
adultery: and whoso marrieth her which is put away doth commit
adultery.
40:019:010 His disciples say unto him, If the case of the man be so with
his wife, it is not good to marry.
40:019:011 But he said unto them, All men cannot receive this saying,
save they to whom it is given.
40:019:012 For there are some eunuchs, which were so born from their
mother's womb: and there are some eunuchs, which were made
eunuchs of men: and there be eunuchs, which have made
themselves eunuchs for the kingdom of heaven's sake. He that
is able to receive it, let him receive it.
40:019:013 Then were there brought unto him little children, that he
should put his hands on them, and pray: and the disciples
rebuked them.
40:019:014 But Jesus said, Suffer little children, and forbid them not,
to come unto me: for of such is the kingdom of heaven.
40:019:015 And he laid his hands on them, and departed thence.
40:019:016 And, behold, one came and said unto him, Good Master, what
good thing shall I do, that I may have eternal life?
40:019:017 And he said unto him, Why callest thou me good? there is none
good but one, that is, God: but if thou wilt enter into life,
keep the commandments.
40:019:018 He saith unto him, Which? Jesus said, Thou shalt do no murder,
Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not steal, Thou
shalt not bear false witness,
40:019:019 Honour thy father and thy mother: and, Thou shalt love thy
neighbour as thyself.
