Then some people took little children to him, so that he might put his hands on them in blessing: and the disciples said sharp words to them.
14
But Jesus said, Let the little ones come to me, and do not keep them away: for of such is the kingdom of heaven.
15
And he put his hands on them, and went away.
16
And one came to him and said, Master, what good thing have I to do, so that I may have eternal life?
17
And he said to him, Why are you questioning me about what is good? One there is who is good: but if you have a desire to go into life, keep the rules of the law.
18
He says to him, Which? And Jesus said, Do not put anyone to death, Do not be untrue in married life, Do not take what is not yours, Do not give false witness,
19
Give honour to your father and your mother: and, Have love for your neighbour as for yourself.

The young man says to him, All these things have I done: what more is there?
21
Jesus said to him, If you have a desire to be complete, go, get money for your property, and give it to the poor, and you will have wealth in heaven: and come after me.
22
But hearing these words the young man went away sorrowing: for he had much property.
