Matthew 19:16-22

161And someone came to Him and said, “Teacher, what good thing shall I do so that I may obtain 2eternal life?” 17And He said to him, “Why are you asking Me about what is good? There is only One who is good; but 3if you want to enter life, keep the commandments.” 18Then he said to Him, “Which ones?” And Jesus said, “4You shall not commit murder; You shall not commit adultery; You shall not steal; You shall not give false testimony; 195Honor your father and mother; and 6You shall love your neighbor as yourself.” 20The young man said to Him, “All these I have kept; what am I still lacking?” 21Jesus said to him, “If you want to be 7complete, go and 8sell your possessions and give to the poor, and you will have 9treasure in heaven; and come, follow Me.” 22But when the young man heard this statement, he went away grieving; for he was one who owned much property.
