* And when he was gone forth (5740 ) into the way , there came one running (5631 ), and kneeled (5660 ) to him , and asked (5707 ) him , Good Master , what shall I do (5661 ) that I may inherit (5661 ) eternal life ? * And Jesus said (5627 ) unto him , Why callest thou (5719 ) me good ? there is none good but one , that is , God . * Thou knowest (5758 ) the commandments , Do not commit adultery (5661 ), Do not kill (5661 ), Do not steal (5661 ), Do not bear false witness (5661 ), Defraud (5661 ) not , Honour (5720 ) thy father and mother . * And he answered (5679 ) and said (5627 ) unto him , Master , all these have I observed (5668 ) from my youth . * Then Jesus beholding (5660 ) him loved (5656 ) him , and said (5627 ) unto him , One thing thou lackest (5719 ): go thy way (5720 ), sell (5657 ) whatsoever thou hast (5719 ), and give (5628 ) to the poor , and thou shalt have (5692 ) treasure in heaven : and come (5773 ), take up (5660 ) the cross , and follow (5720 ) me . * And he was sad (5660 ) at that saying , and went away (5627 ) grieved (5746 ): for he had (5723 ) (5713 ) great possessions . * And Jesus looked round about (5671 ), and saith (5719 ) unto his disciples , How hardly shall they that have (5723 ) riches enter (5695 ) into the kingdom of God ! * And the disciples were astonished (5712 ) at his words . But Jesus answereth (5679 ) again , and saith (5719 ) unto them , Children , how hard is it (5748 ) for them that trust (5756 ) in riches to enter (5629 ) into the kingdom of God ! * It is (5748 ) easier for a camel to go (5629 ) (5625 ) (5629 ) through the eye of a needle , than for a rich man to enter (5629 ) into the kingdom of God . * And they were astonished (5712 ) out of measure , saying (5723 ) among themselves , Who then can (5736 ) be saved (5683 )? * And Jesus looking upon (5660 ) them saith (5719 ), With men it is impossible , but not with God : for with God all things are (5748 ) possible . * Then Peter began (5662 ) to say (5721 ) unto him , Lo (5628 ), we have left (5656 ) all , and have followed (5656 ) thee . * And Jesus answered (5679 ) and said (5627 ), Verily I say (5719 ) unto you , There is (5748 ) no man that hath left (5656 ) house , or brethren , or sisters , or father , or mother , or wife , or children , or lands , for my sake , and the gospels , * But he shall receive (5632 ) an hundredfold now in this time , houses , and brethren , and sisters , and mothers , and children , and lands , with persecutions ; and in the world to come (5740 ) eternal life . * But many that are first shall be (5704 ) last ; and the last first .
