17 And as he was setting out on his journey, one came running, and kneeling down before him, asked him, Good teacher, what shall I do that I may inherit an everlasting life?
18 Thereupon Jesus said to him, Why callest thou me good? There is none good but God only.
19 Thou knowest the commandments; thou shall not commit adultery, thou shalt not commit murder, thou shalt not steal, thou shalt not bear false testimony, thou shalt not defraud, honour thy father and thy mother.
20 He answering, said to him, Teacher, All these I have observed from my childhood.
21 Then Jesus, looking stedfastly on him, loved him, and said to him, One thing is wanting to thee. Go sell what thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven. Then come, and having taken up the cross, follow me.
22 At this word, he was grieved and went away sorrowful, for he had great possessions.
23 Thereupon Jesus, looking round, saith to his disciples, How difficult it is for them who have riches to enter into the kingdom of God!
24 At these words of his, his disciples being astonished, Jesus, addressing them again, saith, Children, How difficult a thing it is for them who trust in riches to enter into the kingdom of God.
25 It is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God.
26 At this they were still more astonished, and said among themselves, Who then can be saved?
27 Whereupon Jesus, looking stedfastly on them, saith, With men it is impossible, but not with God. For with God all things are possible.
28 Upon this Peter took occasion to say to him, Behold we have forsaken all and followed thee.
29 In reply to this, Jesus said, Verily I say to you, There is none who hath left house, or brothers, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or fields, for the sake of me and the glad tidings,
30 who shall not now, even in the present time, receive an hundred fold compensation for houses, and brothers, and sisters, and mothers, and children, and fields, as well as for persecutions and in the age to come, everlasting life.
31 But many who are first, shall be last, and the last, first.
