Matthew 19:23

A Rich Young Man

²² But when the young man heard the saying, he went away sorrowing, for he was having many possessions. ²³ And Jesus said to his disciples, Truly I say to you, that a rich man will enter into the kingdom of the heavens difficultly. ²⁴ And again I say to you, it is easier for a camel to pass through the hole of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.

Truly I Say to You

I Tell You the Truth

Jesus Said

Kingdom of Heaven

Truly I Tell You

Verily I Say Unto You

Jesus
