Matt. 19:16‑30• 16{i}And lo, one coming up said to him, Teacher, what good thing shall I do that I may have life eternal?{/i}
17{i}And he said to him, What askest thou me concerning goodness? one is good. But if thou wouldest enter into life, keep the commandments.{/i}
18{i}He says to him, Which? And Jesus said, Thou shalt not kill, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness,{/i}
19{i}Honour thy father and thy mother, and Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.{/i}
20{i}The young man says to him, All these have I kept; what lack I yet?{/i}
21{i}Jesus said to him, If thou wouldest be perfect, go, sell what thou hast and give to [the] poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven; and come, follow me.{/i}
22{i}But the young man, having heard the word, went away grieved, for he had large possessions.{/i}
23{i}And Jesus said to his disciples, Verily I say unto you, A rich man shall with difficulty enter into the kingdom of the heavens;{/i}
24{i}and again I say unto you, It is easier for a camel to enter a needle's eye than a rich man into the kingdom of God.{/i}
25{i}And when the disciples heard [it] they were exceedingly astonished, saying, Who then can be saved?{/i}
26{i}But Jesus, looking on [them], said to them, With men this is impossible; but with God all things are possible.{/i}
27{i}Then Peter answering said to him, Behold, we have left all things and have followed thee; what then shall happen to us?{/i}
28{i}And Jesus said to them, Verily I say unto you, That ye who have followed me, in the regeneration when the Son of man shall sit down upon his throne of glory, ye also shall sit on twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.{/i}
29{i}And everyone who has left houses, or brethren, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for my name's sake, shall receive a hundredfold, and shall inherit life eternal.{/i}
30{i}But many first shall be last, and last first.{/i} (Matt. 19:16‑30)
Mark 10:17‑31• 17And as he went forth into the way, one ran up and kneeled to him, and asked him, Good Teacher, what shall I do that I may inherit life eternal?
18And Jesus said to him, Why callest thou me good? There is none good but one [that is], God.
19Thou knowest the commandments, Do not commit adultery, Do not kill, Do not steal, Do not bear false witness, Defraud not, Honour thy father and mother.
20And he answered and said to him, Teacher, all these have I observed from my youth.
21And Jesus beholding him loved him, {i}and{/i} said to him, One thing thou lackest: go, sell whatever thou hast and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come, follow me, [taking up the cross].
22But he, sad at the word, went away grieved: for he had large possessions.
23And Jesus looked round about, and saith unto his disciples, With what difficulty shall they that have riches enter into the kingdom of God!
24{i}And the disciples were amazed at his words.{/i} And Jesus answers again, and says to them, Children, how difficult it is for those who trust in riches 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.
26And they were exceedingly astonished, saying to one another, And who can be saved?
27But Jesus looking on them saith, With men it is impossible, but not with God; for all things are possible with God.
28Peter began to say unto him, Lo, it is we who have left all, and have followed thee.
29Jesus answered and said, Verily I say unto you, There is no man who hath left house, or brethren, or sisters, or father, or mother [or wife], or children, or lands, for my sake, and the gospel's,
30that shall not receive a hundredfold now in this time, houses, and brethren, and sisters, and mothers, and children, and lands, with persecutions; and in the coming age life eternal.
31But many first shall be last; and the last first. (Mark 10:17‑31)
