10 Then kai Jesus left anistēmi that place ekeithen and went erchomai to eis the ho region horion of ho Judea Ioudaia and kai beyond peran the ho Jordan Iordanēs, and kai crowds ochlos gathered symporeuomai around pros him autos again palin. And kai again palin, as hōs was his custom eiōtha, he began to teach didaskō them autos. And kai Pharisees Pharisaios came proserchomai up and asked eperōtaō him autos if ei it was lawful for a man anēr to divorce apolyō his wife gynē, in order to test peirazō him autos.

Therefore oun what hos · ho God theos has joined syzeugnymi together , let not man anthrōpos divide chōrizō.”

10 And kai in eis the ho house oikia, the ho disciples mathētēs were eperōtaō again palin questioning eperōtaō him autos about peri this houtos matter . 11 And kai he said legō to them autos, “ Whoever hos an divorces apolyō · ho his autos wife gynē and kai marries gameō another allos woman commits adultery moichaō against epi her autos. 12 And kai if ean she autos, after divorcing apolyō · ho her autos husband anēr, marries gameō another allos man , she commits adultery moichaō.”

13 And kai people were bringing prospherō to him autos children paidion so hina that he could touch haptō them autos, but de his ho disciples mathētēs rebuked epitimaō them autos. 14 But de when Jesus Iēsous saw it, · ho he was indignant aganakteō and kai said legō to them autos, “ Let aphiēmi the ho children paidion come erchomai to pros me egō.

17 And kai as he autos was going ekporeuomai out on eis the road hodos, a man heis ran prostrechō up , and kai kneeling gonypeteō before him autos, asked eperōtaō him autos, “ Good agathos teacher didaskalos, what tis must I do poieō to hina inherit klēronomeō eternal aiōnios life zōē?” 18 · ho But de Jesus Iēsous said legō to him autos, “ Why tis do you call legō me egō good agathos? No oudeis one is good agathos except ei mē one heis · ho God theos. 19 You know oida the ho commandments entolē: ‘ Do not murder phoneuō, Do not commit adultery moicheuō, Do not steal kleptō, Do not bear false witness pseudomartyreō, Do not defraud apostereō, Honor timaō · ho your sy father patēr and kai · ho mother mētēr.’” 20 And de the ho man said phēmi to him autos, “ Teacher didaskalos, all pas these houtos I have kept phylassō from ek my egō youth neotēs.” 21 · ho But de Jesus Iēsous, looking blepō at him autos, loved agapaō him autos and kai said legō to him autos, “ You sy lack hystereō one heis thing go hypagō, sell pōleō whatever hosos you have echō and kai give didōmi the money to the ho poor ptōchos; then kai you will have echō treasure thēsauros in en heaven ouranos.

23 And kai looking periblepō around , · ho Jesus Iēsous said legō to ho his autos disciples mathētēs, “ How pōs difficult dyskolōs it is for those ho · ho who have echō wealth chrēma to enter eiserchomai the ho kingdom basileia of ho God theos.” 24 The ho · de disciples mathētēs were shocked thambeō at epi · ho his autos words logos. · ho But de Jesus Iēsous, responding apokrinomai again palin, said legō to them autos, “ Children teknon, how pōs difficult dyskolos it is eimi to enter eiserchomai the ho kingdom basileia of ho God theos! 25 It is eimi easier eukopos for a camel kamēlos to pass dierchomai through dia the ho eye trymalia of ho a needle rhaphis than ē for someone who is rich plousios to enter eiserchomai the ho kingdom basileia of ho God theos.” 26 They ho · de were even perissōs more astonished ekplēssō, saying legō to pros themselves heautou, “ Then kai who tis is able dynamai to be saved sōzō?” 27 Looking emblepō at them autos, · ho Jesus Iēsous said legō, “ With para man anthrōpos it is impossible adynatos, but alla not ou with para God theos; for gar all pas things are possible dynatos with para · ho God theos.”

28 Peter Petros started archō to speak legō · ho to him autos, “ Well idou, we hēmeis have left aphiēmi everything pas and kai have followed akoloutheō you sy.” 29 Jesus Iēsous said phēmi, · ho I tell legō you hymeis the truth amēn, there is eimi no oudeis one who hos has left aphiēmi home oikia or ē brothers adelphos or ē sisters adelphē or ē mother mētēr or ē father patēr or ē children teknon or ē fields agros for my egō sake and kai for the sake of the ho gospel euangelion 30 who will not receive lambanō one hundredfold hekatontaplasiōn now nyn in en · ho this houtos present kairos time houses oikia and kai brothers adelphos and kai sisters adelphē and kai mothers mētēr and kai children teknon and kai fields agros, with meta persecutions diōgmos and kai in en the ho coming erchomai age aiōn, · ho eternal aiōnios life zōē. 31 But de many polys who are first prōtos will be eimi last eschatos, and kai the ho last eschatos will be first prōtos.”

32 Now de they were eimi on en the ho road hodos, going anabainō up to eis Jerusalem Hierosolyma, and kai Jesus Iēsous was eimi going proagō on ahead of them autos. · ho · kai They were filled thambeō with awe , but de those ho who followed akoloutheō behind were afraid phobeomai. And kai taking paralambanō the ho twelve dōdeka aside again palin, he began archō to tell legō them autos the ho things mellō that were going to happen symbainō to him autos: 33  Listen idou, we are going anabainō up to eis Jerusalem Hierosolyma, and kai the ho Son hyios of ho Man anthrōpos will be handed paradidōmi over to the ho ruling archiereus priests and kai the ho scribes grammateus, and kai they will condemn katakrinō him autos to death thanatos and kai hand paradidōmi him autos over to the ho Gentiles ethnos. 34 And kai they will mock empaizō him autos, and kai spit emptyō on him autos, and kai flog mastigoō him autos, and kai kill apokteinō him; but kai after meta three treis days hēmera he will rise anistēmi.”

35 Then kai James Iakōbos and kai John Iōannēs, the ho sons hyios of Zebedee Zebedaios, approached prosporeuomai Jesus autos and said legō to him autos, “ Teacher didaskalos, we want thelō you sy to hina do poieō for us hēmeis whatever hos ean we ask aiteō.” 36 And de he ho said legō to them autos, “ What tis do you want thelō me egō to do poieō for you hymeis?” 37 And de they ho said legō to him autos, “ Give didōmi us hēmeis permission to hina sit kathizō, one heis on ek your sy right dexios and kai one heis on ek your left aristeros, in en · ho your sy glory doxa.” 38 · ho But de Jesus Iēsous said legō to them autos, “ You do not ou know oida what tis you are asking aiteō.

46 And kai they came erchomai to eis Jericho Ierichō.

On Divorce

10 And from there he set out and[a] came to the region of Judea and the other side of the Jordan, and again crowds came together to him. And again, as he was accustomed to do,[b] he began to teach[c] them. And they asked[d] him if it was permitted for a man to divorce his[e] wife, in order to[f] test him. And he answered and[g] said to them, “What did Moses command you?” So they said, “Moses permitted a man[h] to write a certificate of divorce and to send her[i] away.” But Jesus said to them, “He wrote this commandment for you because of your hardness of heart. But from the beginning of creation ‘he made them male and female.[j] Because of this a man will leave his father and mother and will be joined to his wife,[k] and the two will become one flesh,’[l] so that they are no longer two but one flesh. Therefore what God has joined together, man must not separate.”

10 And in the house again the disciples began to ask[m] him about this. 11 And he said to them, “Whoever divorces his wife and marries another commits adultery against her. 12 And if she divorces her husband and[n] marries another, she commits adultery.”

Little Children Brought to Jesus

13 And they were bringing young children to him so that he could touch them, but the disciples rebuked them. 14 But when[o] Jesus saw it,[p] he was indignant, and said to them, “Let the young children come to me. Do not forbid them, for to such belongs[q] the kingdom of God. 15 Truly I say to you, whoever does not welcome the kingdom of God like a young child will never enter into it.” 16 And after[r] taking them[s] into his arms, he blessed them, placing his[t] hands on them.

A Rich Young Man

17 And as[u] he was setting out on his way, one individual ran up and knelt down before him and[v] asked him, “Good Teacher, what must I do so that I will inherit eternal life?” 18 So Jesus said to him, “Why do you call me good? No one is good except God alone. 19 You know the commandments: ‘Do not murder, do not commit adultery, do not steal, do not give false testimony, do not defraud, honor your father and mother.’”[w] 20 And he said to him, “Teacher, all these I have observed from my youth.” 21 And Jesus, looking at him, loved him, and said to him, “You lack one thing: Go, sell all that you have, and give the proceeds[x] to the poor—and you will have treasure in heaven—and come, follow me.” 22 But he looked gloomy at the statement and[y] went away sorrowful, because he had[z] many possessions.

23 And Jesus looked around and[aa] said to his disciples, “How difficult it is for[ab] those who possess wealth to enter into the kingdom of God!” 24 And the disciples were astounded at his words. But Jesus answered and[ac] said to them again, “Children, how difficult it is to enter into the kingdom of God! 25 It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich person to enter into the kingdom of God.” 26 And they were very astounded, saying to one another, “And who can be saved?” 27 Jesus looked at them and[ad] said, “With human beings it is impossible, but not with God. For all things are possible with God.” 28 Peter began to say to him, “Behold, we have left everything and followed you.” 29 Jesus said, “Truly I say to you, there is no one who has left house or brothers or sisters or mother or father or children or fields on account of me and on account of the gospel 30 who will not[ae] receive a hundred times as much now in this time—houses and brothers and sisters and mothers and children and fields, together with persecutions—and in the age to come, eternal life. 31 But many who are first will be last, and the last first.”

Jesus Predicts His Death and Resurrection a Third Time

32 Now they were on the road going up to Jerusalem, and Jesus was going on ahead of them. And they were astounded, but those who were following him[af] were afraid. And taking aside the twelve again, he began to tell them the things that were about to happen to him: 33 “Behold, we are going up to Jerusalem, and the Son of Man will be handed over to the chief priests and the scribes, and they will condemn him to death and will hand him over to the Gentiles. 34 And they will mock him and spit on him and flog him and kill him,[ag] and after three days he will rise.”

A Request by James and John

35 And James and John, the sons of Zebedee, came up to him and[ah] said to him, “Teacher, we want you to do for us whatever we ask you.” 36 And he said to them, “What do you want that I do[ai] for you?” 37 So they said to him, “Grant to us that we may sit one at your right hand and one at your left in your glory.” 38 But Jesus said to them, “You do not know what you are asking! Are you able to drink the cup that I drink, or to be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with?” 39 And they said to him, “We are able.” So Jesus said to them, “You will drink the cup that I drink, and you will be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with, 40 but to sit at my right hand or at my left is not mine to grant, but is for those for whom it has been prepared.” 41 And when they[aj] heard this,[ak] the ten began to be indignant about James and John. 42 And Jesus called them to himself and[al] said to them, “You know that those who are considered to rule over the Gentiles lord it over them, and their people in high positions exercise authority over them. 43 But it is not like this among you! But whoever wants to become great among you must be your servant, 44 and whoever wants to be most prominent among you must be the slave of all. 45 For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.”

A Blind Man Healed at Jericho

46 And they came to Jericho. And as[am] he was setting out from Jericho along with his disciples and a large crowd, a blind beggar, Bartimaeus the son of Timaeus, was sitting beside the road. 47 And when he[an] heard that it was Jesus the Nazarene, he began to cry out and say, “Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me!” 48 And many people warned him that he should be quiet. But he was crying out even more loudly,[ao] “Son of David, have mercy on me!” 49 And Jesus stopped and[ap] said, “Call him.” And they called the blind man and[aq] said to him, “Have courage! Get up! He is calling you.” 50 And he threw off his cloak, jumped up, and[ar] came to Jesus. 51 And Jesus answered him and[as] said, “What do you want me to do[at] for you?” And the blind man said to him, “Rabboni,[au] that I may regain my sight.” 52 And Jesus said to him, “Go, your faith has healed you.” And immediately he regained his sight and began to follow[av] him on the road.
