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 do you call me good? No one is good except one -- God.

19 You know the mitzvot: 'Do not murder,' 'Do not commit adultery,' 'Do not steal,' 'Do not give false testimony,' 'Do not defraud,' 'Honor your father and mother.'"

20 He said to him, "Teacher, I have observed all these things from my youth."

21 Yeshua looking at him loved him, and said to him, "One thing you lack. Go, sell whatever you have, and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow me, taking up the cross."

22 But his face fell at that saying, and he went away sorrowful, for he was one who had great possessions.
