Luke 16:16-18
Disciples’ Literal New Testament
16 The Law and the Prophets were until John. From that time on, the kingdom of God is being announced-as-good-news, and everyone is forcing-himself [a] into it. 17 But it is easier that the heaven and the earth should pass away than that one stroke[b] of the Law should fail. 18 Everyone sending-away[c] his wife and marrying another is committing-adultery. And the one marrying one having been sent-away from her husband is committing-adultery.
