Matthew 19:16-22
16Just thenG2532G2400 a manG1520 came upG4334 toG846 Jesus and inquiredG2036, “TeacherG1320, whatG5101 goodG18 thing must I doG4160 toG2443 obtainG2192 eternalG166 lifeG2222?”
17“WhyG5101 do you askG2065 MeG1473 aboutG4012 what isG3588 goodG18?”1 Jesus repliedG2036G846. “There isG1510 only OneG1520 who isG3588 goodG18. IfG1487 you wantG2309 to enterG1525G1519 lifeG2222, keepG5083 theG3588 commandmentsG1785.”
18“WhichG4169 ones?” the man askedG3004G846.
JesusG2424 answeredG2036, “‘Do not murderG3756G5407, do not commit adulteryG3756G3431, do not stealG3756G2813, do not bear false witnessG3756G5576, 19honorG5091 your fatherG3962 andG2532 motherG3384, andG2532 loveG25 yourG4771 neighborG4139 asG5613 yourselfG4572.’2”
20“All theseG3778G3956 I have keptG5442,” saidG3004 theG3588 young manG3495G846. “WhatG5101 do I still lackG2089G5302?”
JesusG2424 toldG5346 himG846, “IfG1487 you wantG2309 to beG1510 perfectG5046, goG5217, sellG4453 yourG4771 possessionsG5225 andG2532 giveG1325 to theG3588 poorG4434, andG2532 you will haveG2192 treasureG2344 inG1722 heavenG3772. ThenG2532 comeG1204, followG190 MeG1473.”
22When theG3588 young manG3495 heardG191 thisG3778, he went awayG565 in sorrowG3076, becauseG1063 heG1510 hadG2192 greatG4183 wealthG2933.
