Mark 10:7-25

71For thisG3778 reasonG1752 a manG444 shall leaveG2641 his fatherG3962 and motherG33842, 83and the twoG1417 shall becomeG1510G1519 oneG1520 fleshG4561; soG5620 they are noG3765 longerG3765 twoG1417, but oneG1520 fleshG4561. 9ThereforeG3767, whatG3739 GodG2316 has joinedG4801 togetherG4801, noG3361 personG444 is to separateG5563.”

10And in the houseG3614 the disciplesG3101 againG3825 began questioningG1905 Him aboutG4012 thisG3778. 11And He saidG3004 to them, “4WhoeverG3739G302 5divorcesG630 his wifeG1135 and marriesG1060 anotherG243 womanG243 commitsG3429 adulteryG3429 againstG1909 her; 12and 6ifG1437 she herselfG846 7divorcesG630 her husbandG435 and marriesG1060 anotherG243 manG243, she is committingG3431 adulteryG3429.”

138And they were bringingG4374 childrenG3813 to Him soG2443 thatG2443 He would touchG681 them; but the disciplesG3101 rebukedG2008 them. 14But when JesusG2424 sawG3708 this, He was indignantG23 and saidG3004 to them, “AllowG863 the childrenG3813 to comeG2064 to Me; do not 9forbidG2967 them, 10for the kingdomG932 of GodG2316 belongsG1510 to suchG5108 asG5108 theseG5108. 15TrulyG281 I sayG3004 to you, 11whoeverG3739G302 does not receiveG1209 the kingdomG932 of GodG2316 likeG5613 a childG3813 will not enterG1525 it atG3361 allG3361.” 16And He 12tookG1723 them inG1723 His armsG1723 and began blessingG2721 them, layingG5087 His handsG5495 on them.

1713As He was settingG1607 outG1607 on a journeyG3598, a manG1520 ranG4370 upG4370 to Him and 14kneltG1120 beforeG1120 Him, and askedG1905 Him, “GoodG18 TeacherG1320, whatG5101 shall I doG4160 soG2443 thatG2443 I may 15inheritG2816 eternalG166 lifeG2222?” 18But JesusG2424 saidG3004 to him, “WhyG5101 do you callG3004 Me goodG18? NoG3762 oneG3762 is goodG18 exceptG1508 GodG2316 aloneG1520. 19You knowG3609 the commandmentsG1785: ‘16Do not murderG5407, Do not commitG3431 adulteryG3431, Do not stealG2813, Do not giveG5576 falseG5576 testimonyG5576, Do not defraudG650, HonorG5091 your fatherG3962 and motherG3384.’” 20And he saidG5346 to Him, “TeacherG1320, I have keptG5442 17allG3956 theseG3778 thingsG3778 from my youthG3503.” 21LookingG1689 atG1689 him, JesusG2424 showedG25 loveG25 to him and saidG3004 to him, “OneG1520 thingG1520 you lackG5302: goG5217 and sellG4453 allG3745 you possessG2192 and giveG1325 to the poorG4434, and you will haveG2192 18treasureG2344 in heavenG3772; and comeG1204, followG190 Me.” 22But he 19was deeplyG4768 dismayedG4768 by 20theseG3588 wordsG3056, and he wentG565 awayG565 grievingG3076; for he was one who ownedG2192 muchG4183 propertyG2933.

23And JesusG2424, lookingG4017 aroundG4017, saidG3004 to His disciplesG3101, “21HowG4459 hardG1423 it will be for thoseG3588 who are wealthyG5536 to enterG1525 the kingdomG932 of GodG2316!” 24And the disciplesG3101 22were amazedG2284 at His wordsG3056. But JesusG2424 respondedG611 againG3825 and saidG3004 to them, “ChildrenG5043, howG4459 hardG1422 it is to enterG1525 the kingdomG932 of GodG2316! 2523It is easierG2123 for a camelG2574 to goG1330 throughG1223 the eyeG5168 of a needleG4476 thanG2228 for a richG4145 personG4145 to enterG1525 the kingdomG932 of GodG2316.”
