⁶ so that they are no more two, but one flesh; what therefore God did join together, let no man put asunder.'

² for the married woman to the living husband hath been bound by law, and if the husband may die, she hath been free from the law of the husband;

⁹ what therefore God did join together, let not man put asunder.'

¹⁷ Who is forsaking the guide of her youth, And the covenant of her God hath forgotten.

¹⁴ And ye have said, `Wherefore?' Because Jehovah hath testified between thee And the wife of thy youth, That thou hast dealt treacherously against her, And she thy companion, and thy covenant-wife.

¹⁰ and to the married I announce -- not I, but the Lord -- let not a wife separate from a husband:

¹¹ but and if she may separate, let her remain unmarried, or to the husband let her be reconciled, and let not a husband send away a wife.

¹² And to the rest I speak -- not the Lord -- if any brother hath a wife unbelieving, and she is pleased to dwell with him, let him not send her away;

¹³ and a woman who hath a husband unbelieving, and he is pleased to dwell with her, let her not send him away;

¹⁴ for the unbelieving husband hath been sanctified in the wife, and the unbelieving wife hath been sanctified in the husband; otherwise your children are unclean, but now they are holy.

²⁸ so ought the husbands to love their own wives as their own bodies: he who is loving his own wife -- himself he doth love;

⁴ honourable `is' the marriage in all, and the bed undefiled, and whoremongers and adulterers God shall judge.
