*
Now a certain ruler asked Him ,
saying ,
Good Teacher ,
what shall I do to inherit eternal life ?
*
So Jesus said to him ,
Why do you call Me good ?
No one is good except One :
God .
*
You know the commandments :
Do not commit adultery ,
Do not murder ,
Do not steal ,
Do not bear false witness ,
Honor your father and your mother .
*
And he said ,
All these things I have kept from my youth .
*
So when Jesus heard these things ,
He said to him ,
You still lack one thing .
Sell everything that you have and distribute to the poor ,
and you will have treasure in Heaven ;
and come ,
follow Me .
*
But when he heard this ,
he became very sorrowful ,
for he was very rich .
*
And when Jesus saw that he became very sorrowful ,
He said ,
How hard it is for those who have riches to enter into the kingdom of God .
*
For it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God .
*
And those who heard it said ,
Who then is able to be saved ?
*
And He said ,
The things which are impossible with men are possible with God .
*
Then Peter said ,
See ,
we have left all and followed You .
*
So He said to them ,
Truly ,
I say to you ,
there is no one who has left house or parents or brothers or wife or children ,
on account of the kingdom of God ,
*
who shall not receive many times more in this present time ,
and in the age to come eternal life .
