Matthew 19:16-30 - Interlinear Bible
The Rich Young Ruler
17
And He
said to him,
"Why are you
asking Me
about what is
good ? There is only
One who is
good ; but
if you
wish to
enter into
life,
keep the
commandments."
18
Then he
said to Him,
"Which ones ?" And
Jesus said, " YOU SHALL NOT
COMMIT MURDER ; YOU SHALL NOT
COMMIT ADULTERY ; YOU SHALL NOT
STEAL ; YOU SHALL NOT
BEAR FALSE WITNESS ;
19
HONOR YOUR
FATHER AND
MOTHER ; and YOU SHALL
LOVE YOUR
NEIGHBOR AS
YOURSELF."
21
Jesus said to him,
"If you
wish to be
complete,
go and
sell your
possessions and
give to the
poor, and you will
have treasure in
heaven ; and
come,
follow Me."
23
And
Jesus said to His
disciples,
"Truly I
say to you, it is
hard for a
rich man to
enter the
kingdom of
heaven.
24
"Again I
say to you, it is
easier for a
camel to go
through the
eye of a
needle,
than for a
rich man to
enter the
kingdom of
God."
26
And
looking at them
Jesus said to them, " With
people this is
impossible, but with
God all things are
possible."
The Disciples' Reward
27
Then Peter said to Him,
"Behold, we have
left everything and
followed You;
what then will there be for us?"
28
And
Jesus said to them,
"Truly I
say to you, that you who have
followed Me, in the
regeneration when the
Son of
Man will
sit on His
glorious throne, you
also shall
sit upon
twelve thrones,
judging the
twelve tribes of
Israel.
30
" But
many who are
first will be
last ; and the
last,
first.
