Yet ye say, Wherefore? Because the LORD hath been
witness between thee and the wife of thy youth, against
whom thou hast dealt treacherously: yet is she thy
companion, and the wife of thy covenant. And did not
he make one? Yet had he the residue of the spirit.
And wherefore one? That he might seek a godly seed.
Therefore take heed to your spirit, and let none deal
treacherously against the wife of his youth. For the
LORD, the God of Israel, saith that he hateth putting
away: for one covereth violence with his garment, saith
the LORD of hosts: therefore take heed to your spirit,
that ye deal not treacherously.
Mal. 2:14-16
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? Wherefore they are no more twain,
but one flesh. What therefore God hath joined together,
let not man put asunder.
Matt. 19:5-6
