Matthew 19:16-29

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?”

21

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.

23ThenG1161 JesusG2424 saidG2036 toG3588 HisG846 disciplesG3101, “TrulyG281 I tellG3004 youG4771, it is hard forG1423 a rich manG4145 to enterG1525G1519 theG3588 kingdomG932 ofG3588 heavenG3772. 24AgainG1161G3825 I tellG3004 youG4771, it isG1510 easier forG2123 a camelG2574 to passG1525 throughG1223 the eyeG5169 of a needleG4476 than forG2228 a rich manG4145 to enterG1525G1519 theG3588 kingdomG932 ofG3588 GodG2316.”

25WhenG1161 theG3588 disciplesG3101 heard thisG191, they were greatlyG4970 astonishedG1605 and askedG3004, “WhoG5101 thenG686 canG1410 be savedG4982?”

26

JesusG2424 looked atG1689 them and saidG2036G846, “WithG3844 manG444 thisG3778 isG1510 impossibleG102, butG1161 withG3844 GodG2316 all thingsG3956 are possibleG1415.”

27“LookG2400,” PeterG4074 repliedG611G2036G846, “weG1473 have leftG863 everythingG3956 to followG190 YouG4771. WhatG5101 thenG686 will there beG1510 for usG1473?”

28

JesusG2424 saidG2036 to themG846, “TrulyG281 I tellG3004 youG4771, inG1722 theG3588 renewal of all thingsG3824,3 whenG3752 theG3588 SonG5207 of ManG444 sitsG2523 onG1909 HisG846 gloriousG1391 throneG2362, youG4771 whoG3588 have followedG190 MeG1473 will also sitG2532G2521 onG1909 twelveG1427 thronesG2362, judgingG2919 theG3588 twelveG1427 tribesG5443 of IsraelG2474. 29AndG2532 everyoneG3956 whoG3748 has leftG863 housesG3614 orG2228 brothersG80 orG2228 sistersG79 orG2228 fatherG3962 orG2228 motherG3384 orG2228 wifeG11354 orG2228 childrenG5043 orG2228 fieldsG68 for the sake ofG1752 MyG1473 nameG3686 will receiveG2983 a hundredfoldG1542 andG2532 will inheritG2816 eternalG166 lifeG2222.
