Mark 10:15-45

15TrulyG281 I sayG3004 to you, 1whoeverG3739G302 does not receiveG1209 the kingdomG932 of GodG2316 likeG5613 a childG3813 will not enterG1525 it at all.” 16And He 2tookG1723 them in His armsG1723 and began blessingG2721 them, layingG5087 His handsG5495 on them.

173As He was settingG1607 out on a journeyG3598, a manG1520 ranG4370 up to Him and 4kneltG1120 beforeG1120 Him, and askedG1905 Him, “GoodG18 TeacherG1320, whatG5101 shall I doG4160 to 5inheritG2816 eternalG166 lifeG2222?” 18And JesusG2424 saidG3004 to him, “WhyG5101 do you callG3004 Me goodG18? NoG3762 oneG3762 is goodG18 exceptG1508 GodG2316 aloneG1520. 19You knowG3609 the commandmentsG1785, ‘6Do not murderG5407, Do not commitG3431 adulteryG3431, Do not stealG2813, Do not bearG5576 falseG5576 witnessG5576, Do not defraudG650, HonorG5091 your fatherG3962 and motherG3384.’” 20And he saidG5346 to Him, “TeacherG1320, I have keptG5442 7allG3956 theseG3778 thingsG3778 from my youthG3503 up.” 21LookingG1689 at him, JesusG2424 feltG25 a loveG25 for him and saidG3004 to him, “OneG1520 thingG1520 you lackG5302: goG5217 and sellG4453 allG3745 you possessG2192 and giveG1325 to the poorG4434, and you will haveG2192 8treasureG2344 in heavenG3772; and comeG1204, followG190 Me.” 22But at theseG3588 wordsG3056 9he was saddenedG4768, and he wentG565 awayG565 grievingG3076, for he was one who ownedG2192 muchG4183 propertyG2933.

23And JesusG2424, lookingG4017 aroundG4017, saidG3004 to His disciplesG3101, “10HowG4459 hardG1423 it will be for thoseG3588 who are wealthyG5536 to enterG1525 the kingdomG932 of GodG2316!” 24The disciplesG3101 11were amazedG2284 at His wordsG3056. But JesusG2424 answeredG611 againG3825 and saidG3004 to them, “ChildrenG5043, howG4459 hardG1422 it is to enterG1525 the kingdomG932 of GodG2316! 2512It is easierG2123 for a camelG2574 to goG1330 throughG1223 the eyeG5168 of a needleG4476 thanG2228 for a richG4145 manG4145 to enterG1525 the kingdomG932 of GodG2316.” 26They were evenG4057 moreG4057 astonishedG1605 and saidG3004 to Him, “13ThenG2532 whoG5101 canG1410 be savedG4982?” 27LookingG1689 at them, JesusG2424 saidG3004, “14With peopleG444 it is impossibleG102, but not with GodG2316; for allG3956 thingsG3956 are possibleG1415 with GodG2316.”

2815PeterG4074 beganG757 to sayG3004 to Him, “BeholdG2400, we have leftG863 everythingG3956 and followedG190 You.” 29JesusG2424 saidG5346, “TrulyG281 I sayG3004 to you, 16there is noG3762 oneG3762 whoG3739 has leftG863 houseG3614 orG2228 brothersG80 orG2228 sistersG79 orG2228 motherG3384 orG2228 fatherG3962 orG2228 childrenG5043 orG2228 farmsG68, for My sakeG1752 and for the gospel’sG2098 sakeG1752, 3017but that he will receiveG2983 a hundredG1542 timesG1542 as muchG1542 nowG3568 in 18the presentG3778 ageG2540, housesG3614 and brothersG80 and sistersG79 and mothersG3384 and childrenG5043 and farmsG68, along with persecutionsG1375; and in 19the ageG165 to comeG2064, eternalG166 lifeG2222. 31But 20manyG4183 who are firstG4413 will be lastG2078, and the lastG2078, firstG4413.”

3221They were on the roadG3598 goingG305 up to JerusalemG2414, and JesusG2424 was walkingG4254 on aheadG4254 of them; and they 22were amazedG2284, and thoseG3588 who followedG190 were fearfulG5399. And againG3825 He tookG3880 the twelveG1427 asideG3880 and beganG757 to tellG3004 them whatG3588 was goingG3195 to happenG4819 to Him, 33saying, “BeholdG2400, we are goingG305 up to JerusalemG2414, and 23the SonG5207 of ManG444 will be 24deliveredG3860 to the chiefG749 priestsG749 and the scribesG1122; and they will condemnG2632 Him to deathG2288 and will 25handG3860 Him over to the GentilesG1484. 34They will mockG1702 Him and 26spitG1716 on Him, and scourgeG3146 Him and killG615 Him, and threeG5140 daysG2250 laterG3326 He will riseG450 againG450.”

352728JamesG2385 and JohnG2491, the twoG1417 sonsG5207 of ZebedeeG2199, cameG4365 up to Jesus, sayingG3004, “TeacherG1320, we wantG2309 You to doG4160 for us whateverG3739G1437 we askG154 of You.” 36And He saidG3004 to them, “WhatG5101 do you wantG2309 Me to doG4160 for you?” 37They saidG3004 to Him, “29GrantG1325 that we 30may sitG2523, oneG1520 on Your rightG1188 and oneG1520 on Your leftG710, in Your gloryG1391.” 38But JesusG2424 saidG3004 to them, “You do not knowG3609 whatG5101 you are askingG154. Are you ableG1410 31to drinkG4095 the cupG4221 that I drinkG4095, orG2228 32to be baptizedG907 with the baptismG908 with whichG3739 I am baptizedG907?” 39They saidG3004 to Him, “We are ableG1410.” And JesusG2424 saidG3004 to them, “The cupG4221 that I drinkG4095 33you shall drinkG4095; and you shall be baptizedG907 with the baptismG908 with whichG3739 I am baptizedG907. 40But to sitG2523 on My rightG1188 orG2228 on My leftG2176, this is not MineG1699 to giveG1325; 34but it is for those for whomG3739 it has been preparedG2090.”

4135HearingG191 this, the tenG1176 beganG757 to feelG23 indignantG23 with 36JamesG2385 and JohnG2491. 42CallingG4341 them to Himself, JesusG2424 saidG3004 to them, “You knowG3609 that thoseG3588 who are recognizedG1380 as rulersG757 of the GentilesG1484 lordG2634 it overG2634 them; and their greatG3173 menG3173 exerciseG2715 authorityG2715 overG2715 them. 43But it is not thisG3779 wayG3779 amongG1722 you, 37but whoeverG3739G302 wishesG2309 to becomeG1096 greatG3173 amongG1722 you shall be your servantG1249; 44and whoeverG3739G302 wishesG2309 to be firstG4413 amongG1722 you shall be slaveG1401 of allG3956. 45For evenG2532 the SonG5207 of ManG444 38did not comeG2064 to be servedG1247, but to serveG1247, and to giveG1325 His 39lifeG5590 a ransomG3083 for manyG4183.”
