Psalm 25


Some Pharisees came to him, and to test him they asked, "Is it lawful for a man to [d]ivorce his wife for any cause; He answered, "Have you not read that the one who made them at the beginning 'made them male and female,' and said, 'For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh'? So they are no longer two, but one flesh. Therefore what God has joined together, let no one separate." They said to him, "Why then did Moses command us to give a certificate of dismissal and to [d]ivorce her?; He said to them, "It was because you were so hard-hearted that Moses allowed you to [d]ivorce your wives, but from the beginning it was not so.
