Matthew 19:16-19

The Rich Young Ruler

16 1And someone came to Him and said, "Teacher, what good thing shall I do that I may obtain 2eternal life?"
17 And He said to him, "Why are you asking Me about what is good? There is only One who is good; but 3if you wish to enter into life, keep the commandments."
18 Then he said to Him, "Which ones?" And Jesus said, "4YOU SHALL NOT COMMIT MURDER; YOU SHALL NOT COMMIT ADULTERY; YOU SHALL NOT STEAL; YOU SHALL NOT BEAR FALSE WITNESS;
19 5HONOR YOUR FATHER AND MOTHER; and 6YOU SHALL LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR AS YOURSELF."
