Luke 18:24-34

24Seeing that he became sad, Jesus said, “How hard it is for those who have wealth to enter the kingdom of God!

25For it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich person to enter the kingdom of God.”

26Those who heard this asked, “Then who can be saved?”

27He replied, “What is impossible with man is possible with God.”

28Then Peter said, “Look, we have left what we had and followed you.”

29So he said to them, “Truly I tell you, there is no one who has left a house, wife or brothers or sisters, parents or children because of the kingdom of God,

30who will not receive many times more at this time, and eternal life in the age to come.”

31Then he took the Twelve aside and told them, “See, we are going up to Jerusalem. Everything that is written through the prophets about the Son of Man will be accomplished.

32For he will be handed over to the Gentiles, and he will be mocked, insulted, spit on;

33and after they flog him, they will kill him, and he will rise on the third day.”

34They understood none of these things. The meaning of the saying was hidden from them, and they did not grasp what was said.
