Matthew 19
Revised Literal Translation
1AndG2532 it came to passG1096, that whenG3753 JesusG3588G2424 had finishedG5055 theseG3778 sayingsG3588G3056, he departedG3332 fromG575 GalileeG3588G1056, andG2532 cameG2064 intoG1519 the coastsG3588G3725 of JudaeaG3588G2449 beyondG4008 JordanG3588G2446; 2AndG2532 greatG4183 multitudesG3793 followedG190 himG846; andG2532 he healedG2323 themG846 thereG1563.
3The PhariseesG3588G5330 alsoG2532 cameG4334 unto himG846, temptingG3985 himG846, andG2532 sayingG3004 unto himG846, Is itG1487 lawfulG1832 for a manG444 to put awayG630 hisG846 wifeG3588G1135 forG2596 everyG3956 causeG156? 4AndG1161 he answeredG611 and saidG3004 unto themG846, Have yeG314 notG3756 readG314, thatG3754 he which madeG4160 them atG575 the beginningG746 madeG4160 themG846 maleG730 andG2532 femaleG2338, 5AndG2532 saidG3004, ForG1752 thisG3778 causeG1752 shallG2641 a manG444 leaveG2641 fatherG3588G3962 andG2532 motherG3588G3384, andG2532 shall cleaveG4347 toG3588G1135 hisG846 wifeG3588G1135: andG2532 theyG1510 twainG1417 shall beG1510 oneG1520 fleshG4561? 6WhereforeG5620 they areG1510 no moreG3765 twainG1417, butG235 oneG1520 fleshG4561. WhatG3739 thereforeG3767 GodG3588G2316 hath joined togetherG4801, letG5563 notG3361 manG444 put asunderG5563. 7They sayG3004 unto himG846, WhyG5101 didG1781 MosesG3475 thenG3767 commandG1781 to giveG1325 a writingG975 of divorcementG647, andG2532 to putG630 herG846 awayG630? 8He saithG3004 unto themG846, MosesG3475 becauseG4314 of the hardness ofG3588G4641 yourG4771 heartsG3588G4641 sufferedG2010 youG4771 to put awayG630 yourG4771 wivesG3588G1135: butG1161 fromG575 the beginningG746 it wasG1096 notG3756 soG3779. 9AndG1161 I sayG3004 unto youG4771, WhosoeverG3754G3739G302 shall put awayG630 hisG846 wifeG3588G1135, exceptG1487G3361 it be forG1909 fornicationG4202, andG2532 shall marryG1060 anotherG243, committeth adulteryG3429: andG2532 whoso marriethG3588G1060 her which is put awayG630 doth commit adulteryG3429.
10HisG846 disciplesG3588G3101 sayG3004 unto himG846, IfG1487 the caseG3588G156 of the manG3588G444 beG1510 soG3779 withG3326 his wifeG3588G1135, it isG4851 notG3756 goodG4851 to marryG1060. 11ButG1161 he saidG3004 unto themG846, AllG3956 men cannotG3756 receiveG5562 thisG3778 sayingG3588G3056, saveG235 they to whomG3739 it is givenG1325. 12ForG1063 there areG1510 someG3748 eunuchsG2135, whichG3748 wereG1080 soG3779 bornG1080 fromG1537 their mother’sG3384 wombG2836: andG2532 there areG1510 someG3748 eunuchsG2135, whichG3748 were made eunuchsG2134 ofG5259 menG3588G444: andG2532 there beG1510 eunuchsG2135, whichG3748 have madeG2134 themselvesG1438 eunuchsG2134 forG1223 the kingdomG3588G932 of heaven’sG3588G3772 sakeG1223. He that is ableG1410 to receiveG5562 it, let him receiveG5562 it. 13
ThenG5119 were there broughtG4374 unto himG846 little childrenG3813, thatG2443 he should putG2007 his handsG3588G5495 on themG846, andG2532 prayG4336: andG1161 the disciplesG3101 rebukedG2008 themG846. 14ButG1161 JesusG2424 saidG3004, SufferG863 little childrenG3588G3813, andG2532 forbidG2967 themG846 notG3361, to comeG2064 untoG4314 meG1473: forG1063 of suchG5108 isG1510 the kingdomG3588G932 of heavenG3588G3772. 15AndG2532 he laidG2007 his handsG3588G5495 on themG846, and departedG4198 thenceG1564.
16AndG2532, beholdG3708, oneG1520 cameG4334 and saidG3004 unto himG846, GoodG18 MasterG1320, whatG5101 good thingG18 shall I doG4160, thatG2443 I may haveG2192 eternalG166 lifeG2222? 17AndG1161 he saidG3004 unto himG846, WhyG5101 callest thouG3004 meG1473 goodG18? there is noneG3762 goodG18 butG1487 oneG1520, that is, GodG3588G2316: butG1161 ifG1487 thou wiltG2309 enterG1525 intoG1519 lifeG3588G2222, keepG5083 the commandmentsG3588G1785. 18He saithG3004 unto himG846, WhichG4169? JesusG2424 saidG3004, Thou shalt doG5407 noG3756 murderG5407, Thou shaltG3431 notG3756 commit adulteryG3431, Thou shaltG2813 notG3756 stealG2813, Thou shaltG5576 notG3756 bear false witnessG5576, 19HonourG5091 thyG4771 fatherG3588G3962 andG2532 thy motherG3588G3384: andG2532, Thou shalt loveG25 thyG4771 neighbourG4139 asG5613 thyselfG4572. 20The young manG3588G3495 saithG3004 unto himG846, AllG3956 these thingsG3778 have I keptG5442 fromG1537 myG1473 youthG3503 upG1537: whatG5101 lack IG5302 yetG2089? 21JesusG3588G2424 saidG5346 unto himG846, IfG1487 thou wiltG2309 beG1510 perfectG5046, goG5217 and sellG4453 thatG5225 thouG4771 hastG5225, andG2532 giveG1325 to the poorG4434, andG2532 thou shalt haveG2192 treasureG2344 inG1722 heavenG3772: andG2532 comeG1204 and followG190 meG1473. 22ButG1161 whenG191 the young manG3588G3495 heardG191 that sayingG3588G3056, he went awayG565 sorrowfulG3076: forG1063 he hadG2192 greatG4183 possessionsG2933. 23
ThenG1161 saidG3004 JesusG2424 untoG3588G3101 hisG846 disciplesG3588G3101, VerilyG281 I sayG3004 unto youG4771, ThatG3754 a rich manG4145 shallG1525 hardlyG1423 enterG1525 intoG1519 the kingdomG3588G932 of heavenG3588G3772. 24AndG1161 againG3825 I sayG3004 unto youG4771, It isG1510 easierG2123 forG1330 a camelG2574 to goG1330 throughG1223 the eyeG5169 of a needleG4476, thanG2228 forG1525 a rich manG4145 to enterG1525 intoG1519 the kingdomG3588G932 of GodG3588G2316. 25WhenG1161 hisG846 disciplesG3588G3101 heardG191 it, they wereG1605 exceedinglyG4970 amazedG1605, sayingG3004, WhoG5101 thenG687 canG1410 be savedG4982? 26ButG1161 JesusG3588G2424 beheldG1689 them, and saidG3004 unto themG846, WithG3844 menG444 thisG3778 isG1510 impossibleG102; butG1161 withG3844 GodG2316 all thingsG3956 areG1510 possibleG1415.
27ThenG5119 answeredG611 PeterG3588G4074 and saidG3004 unto himG846, BeholdG3708, weG1473 have forsakenG863 allG3956, andG2532 followedG190 theeG4771; whatG5101 shallG1510 weG1473 haveG1510 thereforeG687? 28AndG1161 JesusG3588G2424 saidG3004 unto themG846, VerilyG281 I sayG3004 unto youG4771, ThatG3754 yeG4771 which have followedG3588G190 meG1473, inG1722 the regenerationG3588G3824 whenG3752 the SonG3588G5207 of manG3588G444 shall sitG2523 inG1909 the throneG2362 ofG1391 hisG846 gloryG1391, yeG4771 alsoG2532 shall sitG2523 uponG1909 twelveG1427 thronesG2362, judgingG2919 theG3588G5443 twelveG1427 tribesG3588G5443 of IsraelG3588G2474. 29AndG2532 everyG3956 oneG3739 that hath forsakenG863 housesG3614, orG2228 brethrenG80, orG2228 sistersG79, orG2228 fatherG3962, orG2228 motherG3384, orG2228 wifeG1135, orG2228 childrenG5043, orG2228 landsG68, forG1752 myG1473 name’sG3588G3686 sakeG1752, shall receiveG2983 an hundredfoldG1542, andG2532 shall inheritG2816 everlastingG166 lifeG2222. 30ButG1161 manyG4183 that are firstG4413 shall beG1510 lastG2078; andG2532 the lastG2078 shall be firstG4413.
