Mark 10:20

And he answered and, said unto him
With a great deal of pertness,

master, all these have I observed from my youth;

Mark 10:20 In-Context

18 Yeshua said to him, "Why are you calling me good? No one is good except God!

19 You know the mitzvot -- `Don't murder, don't commit adultery, don't steal, don't give false testimony, don't defraud, honor your father and mother, . .'"

20 "Rabbi," he said, "I have kept all these since I was a boy."

21 Yeshua, looking at him, felt love for him and said to him, "You're missing one thing. Go, sell whatever you own, give to the poor, and you will have riches in heaven. Then come, follow me!"

22 Shocked by this word, he went away sad; because he was a wealthy man.
