Matthew 19:16-29

16And lo, one coming up said to him, Teacher, what good thing shall I do that I may have life eternal?

17And he said to him, What askest thou me concerning goodness? one is good. But if thou wouldest enter into life, keep the commandments.

18He says to him, Which? And Jesus said, Thou shalt not kill, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness,

19Honour thy father and thy mother, and Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.

20The young man says to him, All these have I kept; what lack I yet?

21Jesus said to him, If thou wouldest be perfect, go, sell what thou hast and give to [the] poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven; and come, follow me.

22But the young man, having heard the word, went away grieved, for he had large possessions.

23And Jesus said to his disciples, Verily I say unto you, A rich man shall with difficulty enter into the kingdom of the heavens;

24and again I say unto you, It is easier for a camel to enter a needle's eye than a rich man into the kingdom of 1God.

25And when the disciples heard [it] they were exceedingly astonished, saying, Who then can be saved?

26But Jesus, looking on [them], said to them, With men this is impossible; but with 2God all things are possible.

27Then Peter answering said to him, Behold, we have left all things and have followed thee; what then shall happen to us?

28And Jesus said to them, Verily I say unto you, That ye who have followed me, in the regeneration when the Son of man shall sit down upon his throne of glory, ye also shall sit on twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.

29And every one who has left houses, or brethren, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for my name's sake, shall receive a hundredfold, and shall inherit life eternal.
