| | 18) | And a certain ruler asked him, saying, Good Master, what shall I do to inherit eternal life? |
| 19) | And Jesus said unto him, Why callest thou me good? none is good, save one, that is, God. |
| 20) | Thou knowest the commandments, Do not commit adultery, Do not kill, Do not steal, Do not bear false witness, Honour thy father and thy mother. |
| 21) | And he said, All these have I kept from my youth up. |
| 22) | Now when Jesus heard these things, he said unto him, Yet lackest thou one thing: sell all that thou hast, and distribute unto the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come, follow me. |
| 23) | And when he heard this, he was very sorrowful: for he was very rich. |
| 24) | And when Jesus saw that he was very sorrowful, he said, How hardly shall they that have riches enter into the kingdom of God! |
| 25) | For it is easier for a camel to go through a needle's eye, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God. |
