Mark 10:17-31

171As He was setting out on a journey, a man ran up to Him and 2knelt before Him, and asked Him, “Good Teacher, what shall I do to 3inherit eternal life?” 18And Jesus said to him, “Why do you call Me good? No one is good except God alone. 19You know the commandments, ‘4Do not murder, Do not commit adultery, Do not steal, Do not bear false witness, Do not defraud, Honor your father and mother.’” 20And he said to Him, “Teacher, I have kept 5all these things from my youth up.” 21Looking at him, Jesus felt a love for him and said to him, “One thing you lack: go and sell all you possess and give to the poor, and you will have 6treasure in heaven; and come, follow Me.” 22But at these words 7he was saddened, and he went away grieving, for he was one who owned much property.

23And Jesus, looking around, said to His disciples, “8How hard it will be for those who are wealthy to enter the kingdom of God!” 24The disciples 9were amazed at His words. But Jesus answered again and said to them, “Children, how hard it is to enter the kingdom of God! 2510It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God.” 26They were even more astonished and said to Him, “11Then who can be saved?” 27Looking at them, Jesus said, “12With people it is impossible, but not with God; for all things are possible with God.”

2813Peter began to say to Him, “Behold, we have left everything and followed You.” 29Jesus said, “Truly I say to you, 14there is no one who has left house or brothers or sisters or mother or father or children or farms, for My sake and for the gospel’s sake, 3015but that he will receive a hundred times as much now in 16the present age, houses and brothers and sisters and mothers and children and farms, along with persecutions; and in 17the age to come, eternal life. 31But 18many who are first will be last, and the last, first.”
