Luke 18:18-23

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

¹⁸ And a certain ruler asked him, saying: Good master, what shall I do to possess everlasting life?

¹⁹ And Jesus said to him: Why dost thou call me good? None is good but God alone.

²⁰ Thou knowest the commandments: Thou shalt not kill: Thou shalt not commit adultery: Thou shalt not steal: Thou shalt not bear false witness: Honour thy father and mother.

²¹ Who said: All these things have I kept from my youth.

²² Which when Jesus had heard, he said to him: Yet one thing is wanting to thee: sell all whatever thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come, follow me.

²³ He having heard these things, became sorrowful; for he was very rich.
