Matthew 19:16-22; Mark 10:17-22; Luke 18:18-23

16 A man approached him and said, "Teacher, what good thing must I do to have eternal life?"

17 Jesus said, "Why do you ask me about what is good? There's only one who is good. If you want to enter eternal life, keep the commandments."

18 The man said, "Which ones?" Then Jesus said, "Don't commit murder. Don't commit adultery. Don't steal. Don't give false testimony.

19 Honor your father and mother, and love your neighbor as you love yourself."

20 The young man replied, "I've kept all these. What am I still missing?"

21 Jesus said, "If you want to be complete, go, sell what you own, and give the money to the poor. Then you will have treasure in heaven. And come follow me."

22 But when the young man heard this, he went away saddened, because he had many possessions.

17 As Jesus continued down the road, a man ran up, knelt before him, and asked, "Good Teacher, what must I do to obtain eternal life?"

18 Jesus replied, "Why do you call me good? No one is good except the one God.

19 You know the commandments: Don't commit murder. Don't commit adultery. Don't steal. Don't give false testimony. Don't cheat. Honor your father and mother."

20 "Teacher," he responded, "I've kept all of these things since I was a boy."

21 Jesus looked at him carefully and loved him. He said, "You are lacking one thing. Go, sell what you own, and give the money to the poor. Then you will have treasure in heaven. And come, follow me."

22 But the man was dismayed at this statement and went away saddened, because he had many possessions.

18 A certain ruler asked Jesus, "Good Teacher, what must I do to obtain eternal life?"

19 Jesus replied, "Why do you call me good? No one is good except the one God.

20 You know the commandments: Don't commit adultery. Don't murder. Don't steal. Don't give false testimony. Honor your father and mother."

21 Then the ruler said, "I've kept all of these things since I was a boy."

22 When Jesus heard this, he said, "There's one more thing. Sell everything you own and distribute the money to the poor. Then you will have treasure in heaven. And come, follow me."

23 When he heard these words, the man became sad because he was extremely rich.
