Luke 18:22-26

22When JesusG2424 heardG191 this, He saidG3004 to him, “OneG1520 thingG1520 you stillG2089 lackG3007; 1sellG4453 allG3956 that you possessG2192 and distributeG1239 it to the poorG4434, and you shall haveG2192 2treasureG2344 in heavenG3772; and comeG1204, followG190 Me.”

23But when he had heardG191 theseG3778 thingsG3778, he becameG1096 veryG4036 sadG4036, for he was extremelyG4970 richG4145.

24And JesusG2424 lookedG3708 at him and saidG3004, “3HowG4459 hardG1423 it is for thoseG3588 who are wealthyG5536 to enterG1531 the kingdomG932 of GodG2316!

25For 4it is easierG2123 for a camelG2574 to 5goG1525 throughG1223 the eyeG5144 of a needleG956 thanG2228 for a richG4145 manG4145 to enterG1525 the kingdomG932 of GodG2316.”

26They who heardG191 it saidG3004, “ThenG2532 whoG5101 canG1410 be savedG4982?”
