9 And I say unto you, Whosoever shall put away his wife, except [it be]Therefore in these days the laws that were made against adulterers were not regarded: for they would have no need of divorce, if the marriage had been severed by punishment of death.for fornication, and shall marry another, committeth adultery: and whoso marrieth her which is put away doth commit adultery.

10 His disciples say unto him, If theIf the matter stands in this way between man and wife, or in marriage.case of the man be so with [his] wife, it is not good to marry.

11 The gift of celibacy is peculiar, and therefore no man can set a law to himself of perpetual celibacy.But he said unto them, All [men] cannotReceive and admit, as by translation we say, that a straight and narrow place is not able to receive many things.receive this saying, save [they] to whom it is given.

12 For there are someA man can become a eunuch in one of two ways: the first is by castration or emasculation, and the other by natural causes, such as a rupture.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 haveWho abstain from marriage, and live as celibates through the gift of God.made themselves eunuchs for the kingdom of heaven's sake. He that is able to receive [it], let him receive [it].

13 The elect infants and little children are contained in the free covenant of God. (Ed.)Then were there brought unto him little children, that he should put [his] hands on them, and pray: and the disciples rebuked them.

20 The yong man sayd vnto him, I haue obserued all these things from my youth: what lacke I yet?

22 And when the yong man heard that saying, he went away sorowfull: for he had great possessions.

23 Rich men have need of a singular gift of God to escape out of the snares of Satan.Then said Jesus unto his disciples, Verily I say unto you, That a rich man shall hardly enter into the kingdom of heaven.
