Tree of Life Version

Luke 18:18-30

18And a religious leader inquired of Yeshua, saying, “Good Teacher, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?”

19“Why are you calling Me good?” Yeshua said to him. “No one is good except One—that is God.

20You know the commandments: ‘Do not commit adultery, do not murder, do not steal, do not give false testimony, honor your father and mother.’”

21The man said, “All these I have kept since my youth.”

22When Yeshua heard this, He said to him, “One thing you still lack. Sell all, as much as you have, and distribute to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow Me.”

23But upon hearing these things, he became deeply distressed, for he was very rich.

24Gazing at him, Yeshua said, “How hard it is for the rich to enter into the kingdom of God!

25It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God.”

26Then those who heard said, “Then who can be saved?”

27But Yeshua said, “What is impossible with men is possible with God.”

28Then Peter said, “Look, we’ve left everything of our own to follow You.”

29And Yeshua said to them, “Amen, I tell you, there is no one who has left house or wife or brothers or parents or children, for the sake of the kingdom of God,

30who will not receive many times as much in this age; and in the olam ha-ba , eternal life.”
