Luke 18:15-43

15And they brought to him also infants that he might touch them, but the disciples when they saw [it] rebuked them. 16But Jesus calling them to [him] said, Suffer little children to come to me, and do not forbid them, for of such is the kingdom of 1God. 17Verily I say to you, Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of 2God as a little child shall in no wise enter therein. 18And a certain ruler asked him saying, Good teacher, having done what, shall I inherit eternal life? 19But Jesus said to him, Why callest thou me good? There is none good but one, 3God. 20Thou knowest the commandments: Do not commit adultery, Do not kill, Do not steal, Do not bear false witness, Honour thy father and thy mother. 21And he said, All these things have I kept from my youth. 22And when Jesus had heard this, he said to him, One thing is lacking to thee yet: Sell all that thou hast and distribute to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in the heavens, and come, follow me. 23But when he heard this he became very sorrowful, for he was very rich. 24But when Jesus saw that he became very sorrowful, he said, How difficultly shall those who have riches enter into the kingdom of 4God; 25for it is easier for a camel to enter through a needle's eye than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of 5God. 26And those who heard it said, And who can be saved? 27But he said, The things that are impossible with men are possible with 6God. 28And Peter said, Behold, we have left all things and have followed thee. 29And he said to them, Verily I say to you, There is no one who has left home, or parents, or brethren, or wife, or children, for the kingdom of 7God's sake, 30who shall not receive manifold more at this time, and in the coming age life eternal. 31And he took the twelve to [him] and said to them, Behold, we go up to Jerusalem, and all things that are written of the Son of man by the prophets shall be accomplished; 32for he shall be delivered up to the nations, and shall be mocked, and insulted, and spit upon. 33And when they have scourged [him] they will kill him; and on the third day he will rise again. 34And they understood nothing of these things. And this word was hidden from them, and they did not know what was said. 35And it came to pass when he came into the neighbourhood of Jericho, a certain blind man sat by the wayside begging. 36And when he heard the crowd passing, he inquired what this might be. 37And they told him that Jesus the Nazaraean was passing by. 38And he called out saying, Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me. 39And those [who were] going before rebuked him that he might be silent; but he cried out so much the more, Son of David, have mercy on me. 40And Jesus stood still, and commanded him to be led to him. And when he drew nigh he asked him [saying], 41What wilt thou that I shall do to thee? And he said, Lord, that I may see. 42And Jesus said to him, See: thy faith has healed thee. 43And immediately he saw, and followed him, glorifying 8God. And all the people when they saw [it] gave praise to 9God.
