¹⁸ Everyone who puts away his wife and takes another, is a false husband: and he who is married to a woman whose husband has put her away, is no true husband to her.

⁹ And I say to you, Whoever puts away his wife for any other cause than the loss of her virtue, and takes another, is a false husband: and he who takes her as his wife when she is put away, is no true husband to her.

³¹ Again, it was said, Whoever puts away his wife has to give her a statement in writing for this purpose:

³² But I say to you that everyone who puts away his wife for any other cause but the loss of her virtue, makes her false to her husband; and whoever takes her as his wife after she is put away, is no true husband to her.

¹¹ And he said to them, Whoever puts away his wife and takes another, is false to his wife;

¹² And if she herself puts away her husband and takes another, she is false to her husband.

⁴ The wife has not power over her body, but the husband; and in the same way the husband has not power over his body, but the wife.

¹⁰ But to the married I give orders, though not I but the Lord, that the wife may not go away from her husband

¹¹ (Or if she goes away from him, let her keep unmarried, or be united to her husband again); and that the husband may not go away from his wife.

¹² But to the rest I say, and not the Lord; If a brother has a wife who is not a Christian, and it is her desire to go on living with him, let him not go away from her.
