Matthew 19:16-30 - A Rich Young Man
16 And lo! one coming near unto him, said, Teacher! what good thing shall I do, that I may have life age-abiding?
17 And, he, said unto him - Why dost thou question me concerning that which is good? There is, One, that is good! But, if thou desirest, into life, to enter, be keeping the commandments.
18 He saith unto him, Which? Jesus, said - These: Thou shalt not commit murder, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not steal, - Thou shalt not bear false witness; 19 Honour thy father and thy mother, - and - Thou shalt love thy neighbour as, thyself.
20 The young man saith unto him - These all, have I kept, - What, further, do I lack?
21 Jesus said unto him - If thou desirest to be perfect, Withdraw! sell thy substance, and give to the destitute, - and thou shalt have treasure in the heavens; and come! be following me.
22 And the young man, hearing, this word, went away sorrowing, - for he was holding large possessions.
23 And, Jesus, said unto his disciples - Verily, I say unto you, A rich man, with difficulty, shall enter into the kingdom of the heavens. 24 Again I say unto you - Easier, is it for, a camel, through the eye of a needle, to enter, than a rich man - into the kingdom of God.
25 And, hearing it, the disciples were being struck with the greatest astonishment, saying - Who then can be saved?
26 And, looking intently, Jesus said unto them - With men, this is, impossible, but, with God, all things are possible.
27 Then, making answer, Peter said unto him - Lo! we, have left all, and followed thee, - What then shall there be, for us?
28 And, Jesus, said unto them - Verily, I say unto you, As for you who followed me in the regeneration, When the Son of Man shall take his seat on his throne of glory, ye also, shall be seated upon twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel. 29 And, whosoever left houses, or brethren, or sisters, or father, or mother, or children, or lands, for sake of my name, manifold, shall receive, and life, age-abiding, shall inherit. 30 But many shall be - first-last, and last-first.
17 And, as he was going forth into a road, one, running, and kneeling before him, was questioning him - Good Teacher! what shall I do that, life age - abiding, I may inherit?
18 And, Jesus, said unto him - Why callest thou me, good? None, is good, save one - God. 19 The commandments, thou knowest, - Do not commit murder, Do not commit adultery, Do not steal; Do not bear false witness, Do not defraud, Honour thy father and mother.
20 And, he, said unto him - Teacher! all these things, have I kept, from my youth.
21 And, Jesus, looking at him, loved him, and said unto him - One thing, unto thee, is wanting; - Withdraw! whatsoever thou hast, sell, and give unto thedestitute, - and thou shalt have treasure in heaven; and come! be following me. 22 And, he, becoming gloomy because of the word, departed sorrowing, for he was holding, many possessions.
23 And, looking around, Jesus saith unto his disciples - With what difficulty, shall, they who have money, enter, into the kingdom of God! 24 And, the disciples, were in amazement, because of the words. But, Jesus, again answering, saith unto them - Children! how difficult, it is, to enter, into the kingdom of God! 25 It is, easier, for a camel, through the eye of a needle, to pass, than for, a rich man, into the kingdom of God, to enter.
26 And, they, were being exceedingly struck with astonishment, saying unto him - Who, then, can, be saved?
27 Looking at them, Jesus saith - With men, impossible, but not, with God; for, all things, are possible, with God
28 Peter began to be saying unto him - Lo! we, have left all, and followed thee!
29 Jesus said - Verily, I say unto you - There is, no one, who hath left house, or brethren, or sisters, or mother, or father, or children, or lands, for the sake of me, and for the sake ofthe glad-message, 30 who shall not receive a hundredfold, now, in this season, houses, and brethren, and sisters, and mothers, and children, and lands, - with persecutions, and, in the age that is coming, life age-abiding. 31 But, many, shall be - first-last, and theLast-first.
18 And a certain, ruler, questioned him, saying - Good Teacher! by doing what, shall I inherit life age-abiding?
19 But Jesus said to him - Why, callest thou me, good? None, is good, save one - God. 20 The commandments, thou knowest: - Do not commit adultery, Do not commit murder, Do not steal, Do not bear false witness, - Honour thy father and mother,
21 And, he, said - All these things, have I kept from my youth.
22 And Jesus, hearing, said unto him - Yet one thing, unto thee, is lacking: Whatsoever thou hast, sell, and distribute unto the destitute, - and thou shalt have treasure in theheavens; and come! be following me.
23 But, he, hearing these things, became, encompassed with grief; for he was rich exceedingly.
24 And Jesus, beholding him, said - With what difficulty, shall, they who have money, enter, into the kingdom of God. 25 For it is, easier, for a camel, to enter, through the eye of a needle, than for, a rich man, to enter, into the kingdom of God.
26 And they who heard said - Who, then, can be saved?
27 And, he, said - The things impossible with men, are, possible with God.
28 And Peter said - Lo! we, have left our own possessions, and followed thee!
29 And, he, said unto them - Verily, I say unto you - No one, is there, who hath left - house, or wife, or brethren, or parents, or children, - for the sake of the kingdom of God; 30 who shall in anywise not receive manifold in this season, and, in the age that is coming, life age-abiding.
