Mateo 19
Ang Salita ng Diyos

Ang Pagpapalayas ng Lalaki sa Asawang Babae

19 Nangyari, na nang matapos na ni Jesus ang mga pananalitang ito, nilisan niya ang Galilea at puma­roon siya sa mga hangganan ng Judea sa kabilang ibayo ng Jordan.

2 Sinundan siya ng napakaraming tao at pinagaling niya sila roon.

3 Nilapitan din siya ng mga Fariseo upang subukin siya.Sinabi nila sa kaniya: Naaayon ba sa kautusan na palayasin ng isang lalaki ang kaniyang asawa sa anumang dahilan?

4 Sumagot siya sa kanila: Hindi ba ninyo nabasa na siya na lumalang sa kanila sa pasimula pa ay nilalang sila na lalaki at babae? 5 Sinabi pa niya: Dahil dito, iiwanan ng lalaki ang kaniyang ama at ina at makikisama sa kaniyang asawa. Silang dalawa ay magiging isang laman. 6 Kung gayon, hindi na sila dalawa kundi isang laman. Ang pinagsama nga ng Diyos ay huwag paghiwalayin ng tao.

7 Sinabi nila sa kaniya: Kung gayon, bakit ipinag-utos ni Moises na magbigay ng isang kasulatan ng paghihiwalay bago palayasin ang babae?

8 Sinabi niya sa kanila: Dahil sa katigasan ng inyong mga puso kaya ipinahintulot ni Moises na palayasin ninyo ang inyong mga asawa. Ngunit hindi gayon sa pasimula. 9 Sinasabi ko sa inyo na ang sinumang magpalayas sa kaniyang asawang babae maliban sa pakikiapid nito at mag-aasawa ng iba ay magkakasala ng pangangalunya. Ang sinumang magpakasal sa babaeng pinalayas ng kaniyang asawa ay nagkakasala ng kasalanang sekswal.

10 Sinabi ng kaniyang mga alagad sa kaniya: Kung ganyan ang kalalagayan ng lalaki at ng kaniyang asawa, makakabuti pang huwag nang mag-asawa.

11 Ngunit sinabi niya sa kanila: Hindi matatanggap ng lahat ng mga tao ang pananalitang ito kundi doon lamang sa pinagkalooban. 12 Ito ay sapagkat may mga ipinanganak na bating. Sila ay gayon na mula pa sa sinapupunan ng kanilang ina. May mga bating naman na ginagawang bating ng mga tao. May mga bating din na sinadya nilang maging mga bating alang-alang sa paghahari ng langit. Ang makakatanggap nito ay hayaang tumanggap nito.

Si Jesus at ang Maliliit na Bata

13 Pagkatapos, may dinala sa kaniya na maliliit na mga bata upang ipatong niya ang kaniyang kamay sa kanila at sila ay ipanalangin. Ngunit sinaway sila ng mga alagad.

14 Ngunit sinabi ni Jesus: Pahintulutan ninyo ang maliliit na bata na lumapit sa akin at huwag ninyo silang hadlangan sapagkat sa mga katulad nila nauukol ang paghahari ng langit. 15 Ipinatong niya sa kanila ang kaniyang mga kamay at siya ay umalis doon.

Ang Mayamang Pinuno

16 Narito, may isang lalaking lumapit sa kaniya at sinabi: Mabuting guro, anong mabuting bagay na dapat kong gawin upang magkaroon ako ng buhay na walang hanggan?

17 Sinabi niya sa kaniya: Bakit tinatawag mo akong mabuti? Walang mabuti kundi isa lamang at iyon ay ang Diyos. Ngunit yamang ibig mong pumasok sa buhay, sundin mo ang mga utos.

18 Sinabi niya sa kaniya: Alin sa mga kautusan?

Sinabi ni Jesus: Huwag kang papatay. Huwag kang mangalunya. Huwag kang magnakaw at huwag kang sasaksi sa hindi totoo.

19 Igalang mo ang iyong ama at ina. Ibigin mo ang iyong kapwa katulad ng iyong sarili.

20 Sinabi ng binata sa kaniya: Ang lahat ng mga bagay na ito ay nasunod ko na simula pa sa aking pagkabata. Ano pa ang kulang sa akin?

21 Sinabi ni Jesus sa kaniya: Kung ibig mong maging ganap, humayo ka, ipagbili mo ang iyong tinatangkilik, at ibigay mo sa mga dukha at magkakaroon ka ng kayamanan sa langit. Pagkatapos, halika at sumunod sa akin.

22 Ngunit nang marinig ng binata ang pananalitang ito, nami­mighati siyang umalis sapagkat napakarami ng kaniyang ari-arian.

23 Kaya sinabi ni Jesus sa kaniyang mga alagad: Katotohanang sinasabi ko sa inyo: Napakahirap sa isang mayaman ang pumasok sa paghahari ng langit. 24 Muli kong sinasabi sa inyo: Madali pa sa isang kamelyo ang dumaan sa butas ng karayom kaysa sa isang mayaman ang pumasok sa paghahari ng Diyos.

25 Nang marinig ito ng kaniyang mga alagad, lubha silang nanggilalas na sinabi: Kung gayon, sino ang maliligtas?

26 Ngunit tiningnan sila ni Jesus at sinabi sa kanila: Para sa mga tao, hindi ito maaring mangyayari, ngunit sa Diyos ang lahat ng mga bagay ay maaaring mangyari.

27 Kaya sumagot sa kaniya si Pedro: Narito, iniwan namin ang lahat at sumunod sa iyo. Ano nga ang aming makakamtan?

28 Sinabi ni Jesus sa kanila: Katotohanang sinasabi ko sa inyo: Sa pagbabago ng lahat ng mga bagay kapag umupo na ang Anak ng Tao sa trono ng kaniyang kaluwalhatian, kayong sumunod sa akin ay uupo rin sa labindalawang trono. Uupo kayo upang hukuman ang labindalawang lipi ng Israel. 29 Iyan ang mangyayari sa bawat isang nag-iwan ng bahay, o ng mga kapatid na lalaki, o ng mga kapatid na babae, o ng ama, o ng ina, o mga anak o mga lupain alang-alang sa aking pangalan. Siya ay tatanggap ng isangdaang ulit. Magmamana rin siya ng buhay na walang hanggan. 30 Ngunit maraming nauuna na mahuhuli at nahuhuli na mauuna.

Mateo 19
Spanish Blue Red and Gold Letter Edition

19 Y ACONTECIÓ que acabando Jesús estas palabras, se pasó de Galilea, y vino á los términos de Judea, pasado el Jordán.

2 Y le siguieron muchas gentes, y los sanó allí.

3 Entonces se llegaron á él los Fariseos, tentándole, y diciéndole: ¿Es lícito al hombre repudiar á su mujer por cualquiera causa?

4 Y él respondiendo, les dijo: ¿No habéis leído que el que los hizo al principio, macho y hembra los hizo,

5 Y dijo: Por tanto, el hombre dejará padre y madre, y se unirá á su mujer, y serán dos en una carne?

6 Así que, no son ya más dos, sino una carne: por tanto, lo que Dios juntó, no lo aparte el hombre.

7 Dícenle: ¿Por qué, pues, Moisés mandó dar carta de divorcio, y repudiarla?

8 Díceles: Por la dureza de vuestro corazón Moisés os permitió repudiar á vuestras mujeres: mas al principio no fué así.

9 Y yo os digo que cualquiera que repudiare á su mujer, si no fuere por causa de fornicación, y se casare con otra, adultera: y el que se casare con la repudiada, adultera.

10 Dícenle sus discípulos: Si así es la condición del hombre con su mujer, no conviene casarse.

11 Entonces él les dijo: No todos reciben esta palabra, sino aquellos á quienes es dado.

12 Porque hay eunucos que nacieron así del vientre de su madre; y hay eunucos, que son hechos eunucos por los hombres; y hay eunucos que se hicieron á sí mismos eunucos por causa del reino de los cielos; el que pueda ser capaz de eso, séalo.

13 Entonces le fueron presentados unos niños, para que pusiese las manos sobre ellos, y orase; y los discípulos les riñeron.

14 Y Jesús dijo: Dejad á los niños, y no les impidáis de venir á mí; porque de los tales es el reino de los cielos.

15 Y habiendo puesto sobre ellos las manos, se partió de allí.

16 Y he aquí, uno llegándose le dijo: Maestro bueno, ¿qué bien haré para tener la vida eterna?

17 Y él le dijo: ¿Por qué me llamas bueno? Ninguno es bueno sino uno, es á saber, Dios: y si quieres entrar en la vida, guarda los mandamientos.

18 Dícele: ¿Cuáles? Y Jesús dijo: No matarás: No adulterarás: No hurtarás: No dirás falso testimonio:

19 Honra á tu padre y á tu madre: y, Amarás á tu prójimo como á ti mismo.

20 Dícele el mancebo: Todo esto guardé desde mi juventud: ¿qué más me falta?

21 Dícele Jesús: Si quieres ser perfecto, anda, vende lo que tienes, y dalo á los pobres, y tendrás tesoro en el cielo; y ven, sígueme.

22 Y oyendo el mancebo esta palabra, se fué triste, porque tenía muchas posesiones.

23 Entonces Jesús dijo á sus discípulos: De cierto os digo, que un rico difícilmente entrará en el reino de los cielos.

24 Mas os digo, que más liviano trabajo es pasar un camello por el ojo de una aguja, que entrar un rico en el reino de Dios.

25 Mas sus discípulos, oyendo estas cosas, se espantaron en gran manera, diciendo: ¿Quién pues podrá ser salvo?

26 Y mirándolos Jesús, les dijo: Para con los hombres imposible es esto; mas para con Dios todo es posible.

27 Entonces respondiendo Pedro, le dijo: He aquí, nosotros hemos dejado todo, y te hemos seguido: ¿qué pues tendremos?

28 Y Jesús les dijo: De cierto os digo, que vosotros que me habéis seguido, en la regeneración, cuando se sentará el Hijo del hombre en el trono de su gloria, vosotros también os sentaréis sobre doce tronos, para juzgar á las doce tribus de Israel.

29 Y cualquiera que dejare casas, ó hermanos, ó hermanas, ó padre, ó madre, ó mujer, ó hijos, ó tierras, por mi nombre, recibirá cien veces tanto, y heredará la vida eterna.

30 Mas muchos primeros serán postreros, y postreros primeros.

Matthew 19
New English Translation

Questions About Divorce

19 Now when[a] Jesus finished these sayings, he left Galilee and went to the region of Judea beyond the Jordan River.[b] 2 Large crowds followed him, and he healed them there.

3 Then some Pharisees[c] came to him in order to test him. They asked, “Is it lawful[d] to divorce a wife for any cause?”[e] 4 He answered, “Have you not read that from the beginning the Creator made them male and female,[f] 5 and said, ‘For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and will be united with his wife, and the two will become one flesh’?[g] 6 So they are no longer two, but one flesh. Therefore what God has joined together, let no one separate.” 7 They said to him, “Why then did Moses command us to give a certificate of dismissal and to divorce her?”[h] 8 Jesus[i] said to them, “Moses permitted you to divorce your wives because of your hard hearts,[j] but from the beginning it was not this way. 9 Now I say to you that whoever divorces his wife, except for immorality, and marries another commits adultery.” 10 The[k] disciples said to him, “If this is the case of a husband with a wife, it is better not to marry!” 11 He[l] said to them, “Not everyone can accept this statement, except those to whom it has been given. 12 For there are some eunuchs who were that way from birth,[m] and some who were made eunuchs[n] by others,[o] and some who became eunuchs for the sake of the kingdom of heaven. The one who is able to accept this should accept it.”

Jesus and Little Children

13 Then little children were brought to him for him to lay his hands on them and pray.[p] But the disciples scolded those who brought them.[q] 14 But Jesus said, “Let the little children come to me and do not try to stop them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these.”[r] 15 And he placed his hands on them and went on his way.[s]

The Rich Young Man

16 Now[t] someone came up to him and said, “Teacher, what good thing must I do to gain eternal life?”[u] 17 He said to him, “Why do you ask me about what is good? There is only one who is good. But if you want to enter into life, keep the commandments.” 18 “Which ones?” he asked. Jesus replied, “Do not murder, do not commit adultery, do not steal, do not give false testimony, 19 honor your father and mother,[v] and love your neighbor as yourself.”[w] 20 The young man said to him, “I have wholeheartedly obeyed[x] all these laws.[y] What do I still lack?” 21 Jesus said to him, “If you wish to be perfect, go sell your possessions and give the money[z] to the poor, and you will have treasure[aa] in heaven. Then come, follow me.” 22 But when the young man heard this he went away sorrowful, for he was very rich.[ab]

23 Then Jesus said to his disciples, “I tell you the truth,[ac] it will be hard for a rich person to enter the kingdom of heaven! 24 Again I say,[ad] it is easier for a camel[ae] to go through the eye of a needle[af] than for a rich person to enter into the kingdom of God.” 25 The[ag] disciples were greatly astonished when they heard this and said, “Then who can be saved?”[ah] 26 Jesus[ai] looked at them and replied, “This is impossible for mere humans,[aj] but for God all things are possible.” 27 Then Peter said[ak] to him, “Look,[al] we have left everything to follow you![am] What then will there be for us?” 28 Jesus[an] said to them, “I tell you the truth:[ao] In the age when all things are renewed,[ap] when the Son of Man sits on his glorious throne, you who have followed me will also sit on twelve thrones, judging[aq] the twelve tribes of Israel. 29 And whoever has left houses or brothers or sisters or father or mother or children or fields for my sake will receive a hundred times as much[ar] and will inherit eternal life. 30 But many who are first will be last, and the last first.

Footnotes

  1. Matthew 19:1 tn Grk “it happened when.” The introductory phrase ἐγένετο (egeneto, “it happened that”) is redundant in contemporary English and has not been translated.
  2. Matthew 19:1 tn “River” is not in the Greek text but is supplied for clarity. The region referred to here is sometimes known as Transjordan (i.e., “across the Jordan”).
  3. Matthew 19:3 tn Grk “And Pharisees.”sn See the note on Pharisees in 3:7.
  4. Matthew 19:3 tc ‡ Most mss have either ἀνθρώπῳ (anthrōpō, “for a man” [so א3 C D W Δ Θ 087 ƒ1, 13 33 1241 M latt]) τινί (tini, “for someone” 700), ἀνθρώπῳ τινί (anthrōpō tini, “for a man” [565]) or ἀνδρί (andri, “for a husband” [1424c]) before the infinitive ἀπολῦσαι (apolusai, “to divorce”). “For a husband” is an assimilation to the parallel in Mark; the other readings may have been motivated by the clarification needed (especially to give the following αὐτοῦ [autou, “his”] an antecedent). But a few significant mss (א* B L Γ 579 1424*) have neither noun or the pronoun. In light of the variety of additions that clarify the subject of the infinitive, and especially since the shorter reading is the more difficult, it is likely that none of these additions was present in the autograph. As the harder reading, the shorter reading seems to best explain the rise of the others. NA28, however, reads ἀνθρώπῳ here.
  5. Matthew 19:3 sn The question of the Pharisees was anything but sincere; they were asking it to test him. Jesus was now in the jurisdiction of Herod Antipas (i.e., Judea and beyond the Jordan) and it is likely that the Pharisees were hoping he might answer the question of divorce in a way similar to John the Baptist and so suffer the same fate as John, i.e., death at the hands of Herod (cf. 14:1-12). Jesus answered the question not on the basis of rabbinic custom and the debate over Deut 24:1, but rather from the account of creation and God’s original design.
  6. Matthew 19:4 sn A quotation from Gen 1:27; 5:2.
  7. Matthew 19:5 sn A quotation from Gen 2:24.
  8. Matthew 19:7 tc ‡ Although the majority of witnesses (B C N W Γ Δ 078 087 ƒ13 33 565 1241 1424 M syp,h) have αὐτήν (autēn, “her”) after the infinitive ἀπολῦσαι (apolusai, “to divorce”), several authorities lack the αὐτήν. This shorter reading may be due to assimilation to the Markan parallel, but since it is attested in early and diverse witnesses (א D L Z Θ ƒ1 579 700 lat) and since the parallel verse (Mark 10:4) already departs at many points, the shorter reading seems more likely to be initial text’s wording here. The pronoun has been included in the translation, however, for clarity. NA28 includes the word in brackets, indicating reservations about its authenticity.sn A quotation from Deut 24:1. The Pharisees were all in agreement that the OT permitted a man to write a certificate of dismissal and to divorce his wife (not vice-versa) and that remarriage was therefore sanctioned. But the two rabbinic schools of Shammai and Hillel differed on the grounds for divorce. Shammai was much stricter than Hillel and permitted divorce only in the case of sexual immorality. Hillel permitted divorce for almost any reason (cf. the Mishnah, m. Gittin 9.10).
  9. Matthew 19:8 tc A few significant witnesses (א Φ a b c mae) have the name “Jesus” here, but it is almost certainly not original. Nevertheless, for clarity’s sake, “Jesus” is added in the translation.tn Grk “He”; the referent (Jesus) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
  10. Matthew 19:8 tn Grk “heart” (a collective singular).
  11. Matthew 19:10 tc ‡ Some significant witnesses, along with the majority of later mss (P25 C D L N W Z Γ Δ 078 ƒ1, 13 33 565 579 700 1241 1424 M lat sy samss bo), read αὐτοῦ (autou, “his”) after μαθηταί (mathētai, “disciples”), but this looks to be a clarifying reading. Other early and significant witnesses lack the pronoun (P71vid א B Θ e ff1 g1 sams mae; SBL), the reading adopted here. NA28 includes the pronoun in brackets, indicating some doubts as to its authenticity.
  12. Matthew 19:11 tn Here δέ (de) has not been translated.
  13. Matthew 19:12 tn Grk “from the womb of the mother” (an idiom).
  14. Matthew 19:12 tn The verb εὐνουχίζω occurs twice in this verse, translated the first time as “made eunuchs” and the second time as “became eunuchs.” The term literally refers to castration. The second occurrence of the word in this verse is most likely figurative, though, referring to those who willingly maintain a life of celibacy for the furtherance of the kingdom (see W. D. Davies and D. C. Allison, Matthew [ICC], 3:23).
  15. Matthew 19:12 tn Grk “people.”
  16. Matthew 19:13 tn Grk “so that he would lay his hands on them and pray.”
  17. Matthew 19:13 tn Grk “the disciples scolded them.” In the translation the referent has been specified as “those who brought them,” since otherwise the statement could be understood to mean that the disciples scolded the children rather than their parents who brought them.
  18. Matthew 19:14 sn The kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these. Children are a picture of those whose simple trust illustrates what faith is all about. The remark illustrates how everyone is important to God, even those whom others regard as insignificant.
  19. Matthew 19:15 tn Grk “went from there.”
  20. Matthew 19:16 tn Grk “And behold one came.” The Greek word ἰδού (idou) has not been translated because it has no exact English equivalent here, but adds interest and emphasis (BDAG 468 s.v. 1). Here καί (kai) has been translated as “now” to indicate the transition to a new topic.
  21. Matthew 19:16 sn Here the questioner asks how to gain eternal life. In several places Matthew uses “life” or “eternal life” in proximity with “the kingdom of heaven” or merely “the kingdom,” suggesting a close relationship between the two concepts (compare Matt 25:34 with v. 46; Matt 19:16, 17, 29 with vv. 23, 24). Matthew consistently portrays “eternal life” as something a person enters in the world to come, whereas the Gospel of John sees “eternal life” as beginning in the present and continuing into the future (cf. John 5:24).
  22. Matthew 19:19 sn A quotation from Exod 20:12-16; Deut 5:16-20.
  23. Matthew 19:19 sn A quotation from Lev 19:18.
  24. Matthew 19:20 tn Grk “kept.” The implication of this verb is that the man has obeyed the commandments without fail, so the adverb “wholeheartedly” has been added to the translation to bring out this nuance.
  25. Matthew 19:20 tn Grk “these things.” The referent of the pronoun (the laws mentioned by Jesus) has been specified in the translation for clarity.sn While the rich man was probably being sincere when he insisted I have wholeheartedly obeyed all these laws, he had confined his righteousness to external obedience. The rich man’s response to Jesus’ command—to give away all he had—revealed that internally he loved money more than God.
  26. Matthew 19:21 tn The words “the money” are not in the Greek text, but are implied. Direct objects were often omitted in Greek when clear from the context.
  27. Matthew 19:21 sn The call for sacrifice comes with a promise of eternal reward: You will have treasure in heaven. Jesus’ call is a test to see how responsive the man is to God’s direction through him. Will he walk the path God’s agent calls him to walk? For a rich person who got it right, see Zacchaeus in Luke 19:1-10.
  28. Matthew 19:22 tn Grk “he had many possessions.” This term (κτῆμα, ktēma) is often used for land as a possession.
  29. Matthew 19:23 tn Grk “Truly (ἀμήν, amēn), I say to you.”
  30. Matthew 19:24 tn Grk “I say to you.”
  31. Matthew 19:24 tc A few, mostly late, witnesses (579 1424 al arm Cyr) read κάμιλον (kamilon, “rope”) for κάμηλον (kamēlon, “camel”), either through accidental misreading of the text or intentionally so as to soften Jesus’ words.
  32. Matthew 19:24 sn The eye of a needle refers to a sewing needle. (Although the story of a small gate in Jerusalem known as “The Needle’s Eye” has been widely circulated and may go back as far as the middle ages, there is no evidence that such a gate ever existed.) Jesus was saying rhetorically that it is impossible for a rich person to enter God’s kingdom, unless God (v. 26) intervenes.
  33. Matthew 19:25 tn Here δέ (de) has not been translated.
  34. Matthew 19:25 sn The assumption is that the rich are blessed, so if they risk exclusion, who is left to be saved?
  35. Matthew 19:26 tn Here δέ (de) has not been translated.
  36. Matthew 19:26 tn The plural Greek term ἄνθρωποις (anthrōpois) is used here in a generic sense, referring to both men and women (cf. NASB 1995 update, “people”). Because of the contrast here between mere mortals and God (“impossible for men, but for God all things are possible”) the phrase “mere humans” has been used in the translation. There may also be a slight wordplay with “the Son of Man” in v. 28.
  37. Matthew 19:27 tn Grk “Then answering, Peter said.” This construction is somewhat redundant in contemporary English and has been simplified in the translation.
  38. Matthew 19:27 sn Peter wants reassurance that the disciples’ response and sacrifice have been noticed.
  39. Matthew 19:27 tn Grk “We have left everything and followed you.” Koine Greek often used paratactic structure when hypotactic was implied.
  40. Matthew 19:28 tn Here δέ (de) has not been translated.
  41. Matthew 19:28 tn Grk “Truly (ἀμήν, amēn), I say to you.”
  42. Matthew 19:28 sn The Greek term translated the age when all things are renewed (παλιγγενεσία, palingenesia) is understood as a reference to the Messianic age, the time when all things are renewed and restored (cf. Rev 21:5).
  43. Matthew 19:28 sn The statement you…will also sit on twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel looks at the future authority the Twelve will have when Jesus returns. They will share in Israel’s judgment.
  44. Matthew 19:29 sn Jesus reassures his disciples with a promise that (1) much benefit in this life (a hundred times as much) and (2) eternal life will be given.

New International Version

Divorce(A)

19 When Jesus had finished saying these things,(B) he left Galilee and went into the region of Judea to the other side of the Jordan. 2 Large crowds followed him, and he healed them(C) there.

3 Some Pharisees came to him to test him. They asked, “Is it lawful for a man to divorce his wife(D) for any and every reason?”

4 “Haven’t you read,” he replied, “that at the beginning the Creator ‘made them male and female,’[a](E) 5 and said, ‘For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh’[b]?(F) 6 So they are no longer two, but one flesh. Therefore what God has joined together, let no one separate.”

7 “Why then,” they asked, “did Moses command that a man give his wife a certificate of divorce and send her away?”(G)

8 Jesus replied, “Moses permitted you to divorce your wives because your hearts were hard. But it was not this way from the beginning. 9 I tell you that anyone who divorces his wife, except for sexual immorality, and marries another woman commits adultery.”(H)

10 The disciples said to him, “If this is the situation between a husband and wife, it is better not to marry.”

11 Jesus replied, “Not everyone can accept this word, but only those to whom it has been given.(I) 12 For there are eunuchs who were born that way, and there are eunuchs who have been made eunuchs by others—and there are those who choose to live like eunuchs for the sake of the kingdom of heaven. The one who can accept this should accept it.”

The Little Children and Jesus(J)

13 Then people brought little children to Jesus for him to place his hands on them(K) and pray for them. But the disciples rebuked them.

14 Jesus said, “Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs(L) to such as these.”(M) 15 When he had placed his hands on them, he went on from there.

The Rich and the Kingdom of God(N)

16 Just then a man came up to Jesus and asked, “Teacher, what good thing must I do to get eternal life(O)?”(P)

17 “Why do you ask me about what is good?” Jesus replied. “There is only One who is good. If you want to enter life, keep the commandments.”(Q)

18 “Which ones?” he inquired.

Jesus replied, “‘You shall not murder, you shall not commit adultery,(R) you shall not steal, you shall not give false testimony, 19 honor your father and mother,’[c](S) and ‘love your neighbor as yourself.’[d]”(T)

20 “All these I have kept,” the young man said. “What do I still lack?”

21 Jesus answered, “If you want to be perfect,(U) go, sell your possessions and give to the poor,(V) and you will have treasure in heaven.(W) Then come, follow me.”

22 When the young man heard this, he went away sad, because he had great wealth.

23 Then Jesus said to his disciples, “Truly I tell you, it is hard for someone who is rich(X) to enter the kingdom of heaven. 24 Again I tell you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for someone who is rich to enter the kingdom of God.”

25 When the disciples heard this, they were greatly astonished and asked, “Who then can be saved?”

26 Jesus looked at them and said, “With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.”(Y)

27 Peter answered him, “We have left everything to follow you!(Z) What then will there be for us?”

28 Jesus said to them, “Truly I tell you, at the renewal of all things, when the Son of Man sits on his glorious throne,(AA) you who have followed me will also sit on twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.(AB) 29 And everyone who has left houses or brothers or sisters or father or mother or wife[e] or children or fields for my sake will receive a hundred times as much and will inherit eternal life.(AC) 30 But many who are first will be last, and many who are last will be first.(AD)
